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.

Hmm, not quite sure what you mean there, try O&O, very good defrag program.

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