Nothing happens when clicking on Defragment or Analyze.
With XP SP2 the DCOM Server Process Launcher service needs to be running for
Defrag to work.
Open Services...
Start | Run | Type: services.msc | Click OK |
Scroll down to and double click DCOM Server Process Launcher |
Set Startup type to Automatic | Click OK | Close Services |
Reboot

line one gets this error:
Windows cannot connect to the Disk Defragmenter engine
