Re: XP pagefile monitor

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

It puts 2 shortcuts in the start menu under Doug's XP utilities , one says
XP Pagefile Monitor, the other says XP Pagefile Monitor (Change settings)
Both does the same thing, ie, change settings, but NO page file monitor...
