2 pagefiles ?

[Tx2]

I was toying with having the pagefile running off a separate drive, and
configured XP to do just that.

However, for some reason, XP has decided to again use the C: drive for
the pagefile, the problem being, it has left a pagefile.sys of 700Mb+ on
my F: drive.

If I try and delete it, I can't, it's "in use", even though quite
clearly it isn't, the one on C: is ....

How can I get rid of the file on F: - short of formatting the drive,
something I'd rather not do as it has other data on there which'll have
to be shifted around first?
