Urgent defragmentation problem repeated

[Guest]

I have tried many times to defragment Vista through the Windows Live One Care
program tune up button but it keep saying that it cannot defragment some
parts of the drive and that it will try later to fix them.

What can I do?

Same answer as I already gave you earlier. Some files are not and can not be
moved by the defrag routine. This is normal and should be ignored.

How exactly is this urgent?

I first found this problem (of Vista's defragmenter not moving some files)
when I got my new laptop and was trying to repartition the disk.
What I did was to download Perfect8 and it allowed to move the "unmovable"
files and defragment. This way I could reduce the partition size to what I
wanted.

Hope this helps,
