Linux doesn't always work. If you have a JMicron disk controller (they're not very good - therefore most motherboards have them), then you're out of luck.
How old is your PC. For modern PCs, you never need to defragment as long as your disk is <50% full. Even then, you don't need to defrag very often. Defrag used to be important. Not very important currently.
