A Service Pack install removes all the Prefetch data files and
replaces 2600+ system files. Your drive is "Highly" fragmented.
After several days of use, Prefetch will update the Layout.Ini
file and at idle system time, defrag your drive. This is a natural
effect of the Service Pack. I recommend that everyone who
installs Sp2 do an immediate defrag after the reboot is complete.
**For better defrag/Higher performance results investigate an
excellent product called Perfect Disk 2000 (Version 6.0)
They offer a 30-Day trial from their website. www.raxco.com
