ONLY DO THIS ONCE OR YOUR COMPUTER WILL SHUT DOWN.
Then you need to delete all applications you are not using.
Keep Systray and your browser.
Then try and defragment.
All the stuff you delete will come back when you restart your computer.
Also turn off your Firewall and Antivirus software.

The computer nerd son-in-law showed me how to start the computer in the "safe mode", and now it's easy to defrag. Just start your computer as you normally would, but when the blue screen comes on keep hitting F8 until a window opens which allows you to go to safe mode. Tab down to "safe mode" and then O.K. After that, go to Start, Programs, Accessories, System Information, or wherever you find your defragmentor. It should run fine then, but it might take it awhile if you haven't run it for some time.
Start it in safe mode and then defragment. Safe mode shuts out all the programs that are not needed to run and it will defrag with no problems.
