defragment

[S.Sengupta]

Hi,
A volume must have at least 15% free space for Disk Defragmenter to
completely and adequately defragment it. Disk Defragmenter uses this
space as a sorting area for file fragments. If a volume has less than
15% free space, Disk Defragmenter will only partially defragment it. To
increase the free space on a volume, delete unneeded files or move them
to another disk.
Disable antivirus software/firewall before defragmentation.If the
problem persists then chkdsk to know the health status of your volume.

since I installed windows xp home edition my computer
freezes when I try to defrag, sometimes in the analize
stage and sometimes in the defrag stageI have to shut the
computer down to get out of it. this happens in the safe
mode also. some one told me to shut off my screen saver
and this didn't help either. any suguestions would be
appreatiated
