1. Are you using a PC running Windows or a Mac?
If it's a PC, go the the Start menu, choose Accessories, System Tools and you'll find the defrag utility there.

If it's a Mac, you don't need to defrag it, just make sure it runs its daily, weekly and monthly maintenance scripts by either scheduling them in the Disk Utility control panel or running them manually from the same utility.

8. Guess he wanted to make sure no one could get any info
from it.

He hunts, so he considered it target practice!

9. If you have a Windows machine, you have to frag it first
put a fresh clip in your M-16

wait until the PC is in front of you and something starts happening

then unload your clip directly into the CPU

once you have successfully fragged the PC, post back here and I'll walk you through the defrag process

glad I could help.
