The disk defragmenter window appears...
BUT.. Analyze and Defragment do nothing...
No errors nothing.. The buttons just do not seem to do anything.

If you have too little free space, typically 15%, some utilities wont run,
eg disk cleanup

You are logged in with adminstative rights?
If you have another HD does this defrag?

You could also try this?
