SUMMARY
Microsoft DEFRAG operates on the MS-DOS logical drive level only.
Third-party partitioning utilities that modify or translate disk
geometry (such as Disk Manager and SpeedStor) operate beneath the
MS-DOS file system and are therefore transparent to DEFRAG.
DEFRAG cannot share access to a drive with other tasks; therefore, you
cannot run DEFRAG if Windows or DESQview is running.
