I'm a bit puzzled who is saying what (I couldn't see any new text in
what seemed to be a post from didee58), but anyway ...

Does your 15G C drive have 1.43G spare, or only 1.43%? If it has 1.43G,
defrag ought to be possible, though slow; if 1.43%, then it is quite
likely that defrag will indeed not run (and would crawl if it did).

From the above, if you really want to defrag c:, I'd temporarily move as
much as the system will let you onto D:, then defrag c:, then move stuff
back; it will be defragged by the move back. But I'd really try to sort
out C: first (i. e. find out what's on it and see whether it has to be
on C:; certainly if it's data, such as videos sounds pictures and
documents, it doesn't).
