I want to make a partition of at least 25GB on my iMac for Boot Camp, but when I tried running the wizard, it gave me the old "some files could not be moved" error.
I purchased iDefrag and ran a full defragmentation, and I now have a massive contiguous block of free space, at least 100GB in size. And yet Boot Camp still can't partition, not even 10GB!
I don't understand what else is in the way of me doing this, it's incredibly annoying. I don't want to have to back up over 200GB of files and do a full reinstall just to get Windows on there. Does anyone know of anything else I can try?
