I followed your setup guide excatly Using O&O 11 I ran 2 space passes. Then checkdisk followed by the offline, then I ran 2 name passes and lastly one more space.
My question is I waited till most things were installed atleast the larger stuff I'm always trying diffrent things so I frequently install or uninstall but speaking mostly for software over lets say 1 gig.
But now I wont to install another game thats about 11 gigs total with addons.
Should I run all the passes again from scratch or should I run lets say just space or name then get back onto the normal schedule.
 

&&Specs&&E6300, 3 gigs 800 Ram, 8800GT oc, 400gig Sata drive, Windows XP Pro 64 Bit..

If you install the game now then you will need to defrag again. You should follow the instructions under the "Maintenance" section and just do one pass of the name defrag. This should be enough.
