Problem in defragmentation

[sb]

Hi all,

While defragmenting drive c: on my Windows XP Professional machine,
defragmentation stops after doing analysis and gives the error: "-
"Connection to defragmentation engine is lost. Restart
defragmentation."Connection to defragmentation engine is lost. Restart
defragmentation." This error comes even I restart the defragmentation. Can
anyone help me fix this problem. Thanks in advance.
