Can you have the pagefile on a different partition than
the system partition?

Yes, see Windows 2000 Help

Hi Aaron,

Yes you can, if you need the space on the OS partition, but
it will be slower. It's recommended that you place the page
file on another HDD, and it will actually make the system
more efficient. I suggest you think about using something
like Partition Magic to increase the size of the partition
for your system.

good computing,
don

Yes. Control Panel; System; Advanced; Performance Options; Change; <Select
new location>

Suggest you don't mess around with the default sizes.
