Wandering pagefile

[Walt G]

I have my hard disk divided into partitions and I have a system managed
pagefile on drive F:\. From time to time, and for no reason that I can
fathom, my computer will put an extra pagefile, usually on drive C:\, but
this morning on drive G:\, and I then get warnings that I am running out of
space on that drive. I can usually manage just to delete the superfluous
pagefile, but is there any way I can stop this behaviour and persuade my
machine to make do with the perfectly adequate pagefile on drife F:\?

You should probably defrag the drive C: Turn OFF the Virtual Memory, restart,
and defrag, then VM back on. (I recommend using CleanMgr.exe first to remove
all but last restore point, and clearing TEMP etc)
