My C drive won't completly defragment because "the space
between unmovable clusters is too small".

How can I move these "unmovable clusters" to one
contiguous area? My C drive is 12GB with 8GB free. Windows
XP Pro.

thanx

Use a better defrag program. Perfect Disk, Diskeeper, Speedisk, etc.

Don't use Speedisk any more. It has not kept up, and does not handle
the Prefetch layout side of XP. And I heard the other day of someone
who wrecked his dual boot system because it moved a file, bootsect.dos,
from where it is supposed to be

Good point. I use Perfect Disk myself. BTW, that particular error
(Speedisk moving files in a dual boot system) is one that is
documented on the Symantec site.
