I'm hoping someone can solve this...I'm an IT pro but I can't seem to find
a solution.
XP Pro, SP2 w/all updates, 1.0GB RAM, 2 SATA Drives, no Norton, viruses,
etc.
Whenever I specify a pagefile on C (boot & system drive) alone no problems,
if I specify a pagefile on F alone(1st partition on 2nd HD - HD has 2
partitions - data only) no problem. However, if I specify a pagefile on
BOTH C AND F it creates them OK, but upon reboot it ALWAYS removes the
pagefile on F and leaves the pagefile on C. If I look at the Virtual Memory
under Performance Options it shows both pagefiles as still set (I usually
set the F pagefile for 1533MB, C for 64MB). It makes no difference what
values I choose, the same problem occurs. It seems XP doesn't like 2
pagefiles - even if they are on 2 harddrives as Microsoft says. I like to
keep a small pagefile on C for stop errors if they ever occur. I hope
someone has experienced this and has an answer. Google brought up nothing.
