    What program are you defragging with?
    What is the size of the section or % of your h/d that won't defrag?

    Are you using the latest version of Diskeeper? (ver 10)

    It is alot better about getting those pesky files than version 9 was.

    It's probably your swap file. Try to disable virtual memory and then defrag. Turn VM back on afterwards.
