Help Please Something Is Wrong With Laptop had a little of a month.

[calico50000]

I have an Acer Aspire 5050, with Windows Vista Basic. Last night I was doing disk clean up and after that I started  disk defragmenter. I went to bed while it was finishing up and when I woke up I started Windows normally everything came up except for epower management, and calendar. I went to close out of the main window and it said Windows is not Responding. So I rebooted and I started in SAFE MODE, everything works here except there is limitations. I then restarted computer to see if I could work in NORMAL MODE but it froze up again. Some computer tech said Defragmenting may have hurt my hard drive. Is this true? I have tried to find a solution to my problem but I haven't found anything. Is there anyone that can help me. I have no clue what to do. I will take  e-mails <Email Removed to prevent SPAM>. As you can see I'm pretty needy of solutions. So if you can help I will greatly appreciate it.

What Antivirus protection do you have?

Defragmenter is not likely at all to dammage your hard drive.

Try running Scandisk
See this document for instructions:

(The directions are very much the same for Windows Vista, and the directions are on the right side of the page)

Possible causes:
Disk error (cluster caused dammage via Defragmenter)
Virus
