&lt;p&gt;I just solved my problem by deleting the WinXP installation folder that was used by Parallels to run XP. &amp;nbsp;I did not uninstall Parallels, just the XP folder ( approx 11 GB in size ). &amp;nbsp;Now, Boot Camp happily made the partition and I&amp;#39;m running the XP setup in BC. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I did NOT need to defrag the disk, but I was just about to buy iDefrag, when Boot Camp complied. &amp;nbsp;I suspected that the XP installation would not be moved, and it was the culprit. &amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I agree with the main point of this post: Boot Camp should not require a secondary degrag program, and the BC utility should give some more detail as to why it cannot move the files, or which ones cannot be moved , giving the user some direction to begin looking for answers. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I used Boot Camp in the beta version on several machines and never ran into this problem.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Last note: &amp;nbsp;My Macs run extremely fast as long as I keep 15 - 20% of the drive space free, allowing OS X to optimize the drive. &amp;nbsp;If the space falls below 10 - 8%, the system bogs down significantly. &amp;nbsp;One problem with the disk optimization in OS X is that a machine that goes to sleep, will not be optimized and defragged. &amp;nbsp;You must let it stay awake for an hour or so without use to let it run the optimization. &amp;nbsp;Previously, I would sleep my machines or shut them down every day, not wanting to waste energy. &amp;nbsp;Now, I know that once a week, or so, I just need to let the machine go to sleep after an hour to optimize, and I can sleep or turn it off the rest of the time. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hope this helps someone. &lt;/p&gt;

Sigurjonsson</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Thank&amp;#39;s for very usefull information. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I had exactly the same problem with my T42. &amp;nbsp;At first the screen only went off occasionally when the brightness was 100%. &amp;nbsp;By pressing Fn+F3 to turn the screen off and then move the mouse a little, it went bright again. &amp;nbsp;Then it only got worse and worse and this morning it went black after about 15 seconds with brightness on lowest setting. &amp;nbsp;I just turned it in to my IBM dealer and he says that the screen must be replaced. &amp;nbsp;That will cost a lot but still I&amp;#39;m not ready to throw it away yet so I will go for it.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Folks this is symtom when we are asking 100% brightness from LCD display. Just reduce brightness from 100% and you will be ok in this case. Reduce brightness using Fn-End keys. &lt;/p&gt;
