defrag+HD problem and ACDsee problem

I have two hardrive, running window XP Professional
C: Drive have 74.5 gig total, used 52.2 gig, and 22.3 gig free
D: Drive have 149 gig total, used 123 gig, 26.0 gig free.

Defragment program I have
Norton Speed Disk, Voptxp 7.22
Both of those show My C: Drive as nearly full, even though window and window defrag show my pc as having those space.

Here is some pic

The window defrag program

The problem is when I run norton speedisk it freezes after a certain point, and stop moving, while vopt xp will freeze, than say there is no more free space, even though there is, what is the problem, and how can I fix it?

ACDsee problem, is when I use the browsemode, it freezes and crash when ever I go to another folder, and it works fine if I just view the image in image view mode.

 

Blue, have you got lots of files in the Norton protected file bin? This may be skewing your totals, although I doubt if this is the main cause of your troubles. Clear your recycle bin, then try Speed Disk again. Bazza

I cleaned my recycle bin, and norton protected file, it is still the same = =

 

XP experts, please feel free to step in. Bazza

No one knows?

 

windows defrag needs to have about a quarter of the disk free before it can defrag the disk, i imagine its the same for these programs.

this space is needed because the defrag program will move combine the file fragments in free space before moving them to a permanent location on your disk drive.

try removing unused programs and deleting unused files, also try compressing files you dont use too often.

 

im using raxco perfect diskv7 as my defrag tool. it works pretty well for me.
