X-No-Archive: yes

I run XP home. After degrament, I see some sectors that "can not be
removed." If I get a disk partioning tool, how can this possibly work?

PS. "removed" should just be "moved." Also, I have a second drive on the
machine.

The condition "not movable" is permanent but not the physical location. The
disk partitioning software will take care of shuffling things around.

If you want a really good Defragmenting program may I suggest Diskeeper.

Link : http://www.diskeepereurope.com/en/01_ho/xhtml/index.htm

Its 10 times better than the built-in Xp defragmenter, Diskeeper was built
by the same guys that helped build XP's defragmenter, at that time they were
known as Executivesoft.

I wasn't looking for a defragmenting tool. I was just asking about a backup
utility and "unmovable" sectors.
Although your mentioned product does look good; but expensive when MS
already gives you one for free-mediocre may it be. There's only so many
times I want to pay for this operating system.

you do not want to repartition your drive...

Seems like Sharon would be correct. Or else how could anyone ever partition?
