From: "Rich Gauszka" 

Do you have another drive to create a paging file on?

If so the easiest solution seems to be

create a temp paging file on the other drive/delete the old paging file

defragment the drive that had the old paging file

recreate the original drive's paging file/ delete the temp paging file
