Hi
just recently i've found that my scandisc and defrag: processes wont come to a conclusion!!
they just go on for hours and hours!!
sometimes a window will come up on scandsc: saying
another programme is preventing it from completing in normal time!....but I'm not aware of running
anything else.......any advice????

Are you running windows XP?
First, go to start, then click Run. Type in "msconfig" and hit enter. Go to startup under msconfig. There you will see everything that your computer starts when you turn it on. I keep all of them deselected on my computer. So, deselect everything and then run your scandisk and defrag. Then go back into msconfig and select only the ones you want. Tell me if this works.
The reason I ask if you are running Windows XP is you could just hit Control+Alt+Delete and then go to processes or applications to see what is running.
