System Defragmenter Problem.

Hey guys, everytime I run my system defrag it goes to about 50-60% then says

Defragmentation is complete for: (C: )
Some files on this volume could not be defragmented. Please check the defragmentation report for the list of these files.

And when I check the report it doesn't show any files, so is this really not a big deal or is there something I should do? Thanks ahead of time =)

    Common in Windows, not to worry, nothing is wrong.
     
    You might want to run a chkdsk on that hard drive. 2 different ways to do this in Windows XP,ME,2000,98

    This happens to me in Video Production..or..if in Video Production I have a PARTITION configured onto SYSTEM(C:/)..
    Remove any Partition if your a Digital Video Software user...
    Secondly...Microsoft Movie Maker 2 may have TAGGED your FILES...check this possibility that you used SAVE PROJECT in MSMM2...or that your IMPORT FILES are in COLLECTION--useing MSMM2...
    ..............................................................................................
    Basically.....don't use PARTITIONS....use a 80-GB System(C:/)....and External Enclosures for your Library...
    Don't use the manufacturers UTILITY...use COMPUTER Management in Windows and DISK Management...or don't even use a UTILITY...purchase a NEW HD for System(C:/)and then create your NEXT---external HD from that old System(C:/).....watch out for UTILITIES on the HDD.
