Virtual memory

[Ben]

Hello ,

Runing XP and wish to partition C drive to move virtual memry access
to its own partition.

Once the partition is established - how do I direct XP to use the new
partition for virtual memory?

Thank you

Ben

The XP pagefile should be contained within the boot partition OR on a
physically separate drive.. leave it where it is unless you plan to fit
another hard drive into your case..

Placing the pagefile in it's own partition on a system with
a single hard drive runs contrary to perceived good practice.
