Paging file - OS confused

When I wet my paging file to drive C, the OS puts it on drive D. When I set
it to drive D, the computer will not boot (except in safe mode). I can set
to no paging file on either disk. I want to remove the second drive, so I
need to put the paging file on drive C.

Any ideas?
 
When you set the page file you need to click set 2X for
any setting,then back out when thru,if a restart is prom-
ted you know its set.
 
Why dont you just let Windows manage your paging file?
Appears you cannot.

Set a paging file on *both* drives.

Then just shut down and remove the D: drive.

Good luck
