Hello

After i upgraded from Windows 2000 to Windows XP Profesional i get an error message

Error
Your System Has No Paging File, or the Paging File Is Too Small

When i look on my drives there is no file pagefile.sys. I tried to make it by hand but it doesn't fix the problem
I also tried to create a pagefile on another drive, i have 10Gb free drive space
Any experienced this before, and how to solve it

Greetings Gerd

You won't see it because it's a hidden system file.
I tried to make it by hand but it doesn't fix the problem.
I also tried to create a pagefile on another drive, i
have 10Gb free drive space.

You can't do this.
The way to do it is to right-click on My Computer, select
Properties, go to Advanced tab, click on Performance
settings, go to the Advanced Tab and change the Pagefile
settings at the bottom.
