First of all, you should be able to force the defragger to run even when there's less than 15% free space. It just might not be as efficient.

Second, you can go to Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs (or Control Panel -> Programs and Features on Vista) and uninstall programs you no longer use. You can also try browsing through your My Documents folder and subfolders for information (pictures, video, old downloads, etc.) that you no longer need and can delete.

If you only have 9 percent space free on your C Drive is there anyway you can free up space if you have already tried using disk defragmenter disk cleanup up and add or remove files?

well, first off disk defragmenter doesn't free up any hard drive space, it does what the name implies. Just defrags the memory on your computer. The only way to free up space on your computer is with add/remove programs. You then would remove certain programs you don't use anymore. You can change the drop down box to size so you can see which programs on you computer are taking up the most space then by deleting the ones you use less frequently you will free up hard drive space i.e C:\ see related links for a program which lets you see what is taking up space on your hard drive.
