Defragging hard disk

I've got an old PC that runs Windows Me. I thought I might try a Linux system such as unbuntu on it. Before doing so, I thought I would clean up the PC. I used Glaryutilities as recommended on the forum to get rid of all the temporary files etc which worked well. I seem to be having a problem defragging the hard disk though as the one included in ME doesn't work. I have also tried defraggler but this also didn't seem to work either. Any ideas on something that would work with an old ME system that hasn't been defragged for some time?

Sorry for delay in getting back to you. Worked a treat. I managed to run it three times and each time it got better. Now for the Unbuntu challenge.....
