Try this, start windows in safe mode and defrag. If this does not work
start computer in pure dos mode delete applog folder in windows folder.
This should solve the problem.

Start windows in safe mode and try defraging the
drive, this should solve the problem. If it does
not work start the computer in pure dos mode. Go
to windows directory and delete applog folder.
This should solve your problem.

Booting in Safe Mode just to run defrag is probably overkill. I had
this problem till I disabled (temporarily) all the memory resident
programs that I had added: primarily, Mcafee Vshield. Defrag then
worked like a dream!
