Here's how you can defragment your disk:

Windows Vista, 7:

  1. Open Disk Defragmenter by clicking the Start button . In the search box, type Disk Defragmenter, and then, in the list of results, click Disk Defragmenter.
  2. Under Current status, select the disk you want to defragment.
  3. To determine if the disk needs to be defragmented or not, click Analyze disk. If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
    Once Windows is finished analyzing the disk, you can check the percentage of fragmentation on the disk in the Last Run column. If the number is above 10%, you should defragment the disk.
  4. Click Defragment disk. If you're prompted for an administrator password or confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
Disk Defragmenter might take from several minutes to a few hours to finish, depending on the size and degree of fragmentation of your hard disk. You can still use your computer during the defragmentation process.

Windows XP:

  1. Open My Computer.
  2. Right-click the local disk volume that you want to defragment, and then click Properties.
  3. On the Tools tab, click Defragment Now.
  4. Click Defragment.

SOURCE: Hi, In my dell optiplex 380

Most cases the harddrive is faulty if with code the PSA+ 2000-0151 code means Hard Drive (d): - Incorrect status: (x) (s) etc...Caution:Remove any and all power sources Including but not limited to: AC Adapter, Battery, or Desktop Power Cord, before you remove or reinstall an item in your computer." So Run the Drive Self Test (DST) from the Utility Partition also known as the 32 bit diagnostics to determine if the previous error has been corrected. If the DST from the Utility Partition does not indicate a failure of the drive, we consider the error to have been corrected and the drive does not need to be replaced.

I need vga driver for dell optiplex 380

Which specific model is the Optiplex 380 and what OS is installed on the computer? Does your computer have a graphics card installed or are you using the on-motherboard graphics?

Most of the Optiplex drivers are available here: http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/04/Product/optiplex-380 . Use the drop down menu to select your OS. Expand the section labeled video for the Dell drivers. If you are using the on-board graphics, use the Intel Graphics driver. Otherwise, you need the one for the manufacturer of your video card. Note: Dell has the drivers for the NVidia and AMD cards that were installed on some models. If you have upgraded or added a new card, get the drivers from the manufacturer.

I hope this helps.
