As I recall, Norton Speed Disk (quite properly) marks a permanent swapfile
as unmovable.  Unless you have a HUGE swapfile this wouldn't explain why
almost yr whole disk was unmovable, but it could be part of it.  You didn't
try to run SD WITHIN Windows, did you??? (That could have very undesirable
results, I understand...)
