Can someone explain why I would get a message like that below when I have no
paging set up on Harddisk 2, which is drive D? Thank you for your time.

What type of disk is disk 2? Is it a removable external disk or do you
have 3 internal hard drives?

Try running HD Tune(freeware).

Download and run it and see what it turns up.
http://www.hdtune.com/

Select the Info tabs and place the cursor on the drive under Drive
letter and then double click the two page icon ( copy to Clipboard )
and copy into a further message.

Select the Health tab and then double click the two page icon ( copy
to Clipboard ) and copy into a further message. Also do a full surface
scan with HD Tune.

Hope this helps.

No, nothing installed on drive D at all. I use it strictly for backup
purposes. Not an entire system backup drive, but back ups of files such as
music, pictures...etc.

Disk 2 (drive D) is another internal disk. I only have 2 internal HD's.
Thank you for your suggestion about that program, I will research it and see
where it leads me.

Drives are normally numbered in Disk Management Drive 0, Drive 1 and
Drive 2 in that order.

Hmmm, now that you mention it, I'll bet ya it had someting to do with my iPod
when it was plugged in. The iPod is recognized as a mass storage device like
hard drives. It's an 80 iPod...so this is probably what is up with that
message. I really appreciate the input Gerry, thanks.

You may be misunderstanding the meaning of paging:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paging

Paging is swapping data between RAM memory and virtual memory. You may
have created a pagefile on a particular partition but data is taken from
all partitions. It is put into ram memory and then swapped out to the
pagefile for reuse when needed.

Right, I understand that when you set up a pagefile (or swapping if ya like)
on your hard drive, which I have, the computer swaps stuff from main memory
to the swap file/pagefile. As far as I know though, the swapping is done
ONLY to the swapfile that is set up by me on whatever drive I set it up on,
in this case it is drive C, my main system drive. In essence, if I
understand this correctly, the computer uses this file on the hard drive as
memory, when/if it needs it (or the system runs out or is running out of main
memory RAM). Is this not correct? If not, then I guess I don't understand.
If so, then my original query is still not answered :) and knowing the type
of person I am, I'll be bothered by it until I do get the answer.....oh well,
such is life. :)
