automate check disk and defrag winxp

Hi I am trying to automate disk check and defrag and have created the command and also A txt file to enable it to know which disks to check but when I run the command it says it can not find the file DrvLtr.txt. which I have created and put into the same directory as the Batch file.
But not sure why it should not be able to find the file?

Regards
Rodger

Thankyou in advance.

 

REM chkdsk and defrag automation
for /F "eol= tokens=1 delims=( " %%i in (DrvLtr.txt) do set DrvLtr=%%i& call :dsKchk

:dsKchk
If %DrvLtr% == end goto :eof
chkdsk %DrvLtr%
If not errorlevel 3 goto :defrag
If not exist %DrvLtr%\winnt If not exist %DrvLtr%\windows If not exist %DrvLtr%\pagefile.sys goto :dskchkon

:dskchkoff
cd\
%DrvLtr%
echo Y chkdsk /F /R
goto :defrag

:dskchkon
chkdsk %DrvLtr% /F /R

:defrag
cd\
%DrvLtr%
defrag %DrvLtr% -b
defrag %DrvLtr%
:EOF


Thanks steve

This doesn't answer your question, but, FYI, XP seldom needs defragged. It does quite a bit on the fly. I can't remember the last time I ran checkdisk on my own comp, either.

But if you really need these to run regularly, why not use the Task Scheduler? Wouldn't that be easier than the batch file?

Have you any ideas on this steve?

 

ok well here's hoping
