I don't understand wether your problem is not being able to defrag your hard drive or not being able to boot in safe mode...
If you want to defragment your hard drive, you might want to try running a defrag while your power cord is connected. (it might not work while running on battery power)
If your computer will not boot at all, I strongly recommend contacting a local business spe[censored]ed in servicing laptops to back up your important data before REINSTALLING windows.

For the defragmentation, i would just change the program. Download "Diskeeper" and either buy it or find a key online. I think it's a pretty good program, but it does replace the default windows defrag program. If you're desperate to defrag, i would suggest that.
Hope it helps

Why are you suggesting pirating a key?
