Emacs file coding problem

I'm trying to convert a file written in Japanese EUC to UTF-8 by saving it using a recent version of Gnu Emacs. Every time I try to save the file, Emacs says that it can't do so or it failed to do so (sorry I'm posting from windows so I can't quote the error message exactly). Does anyone have any experience of anything like this with Emacs?
