Hi:
I have recently changed the drive that I want to be used for virtual memory
(I am using XP). It was using my C: drive, but I went into Performance
Options and re-set the drive to the D: partition. I bought an additional HDD
(a new drive with much more space), and then made C: and D: drives s "No
Paging File" drives, and set up the new drive (E: drive) as the paging file
drive.
All okay, but when I went to have a look, both C: and D: drives still have
pagefile.sys files on the respective drives. This defeats the purpose
somewhat, as I wanted to free up space on those 2 drives. I am reluctant to
try deleting the C: and D: drive pagefile.sys files....is there any safe way
of getting rid of them, or of transferring their contents to my new E: drive??
Thanks for any help!
