Rick

As you seem to be a friendly soul I will turn to you for further help.

I have followed the instructions at http://aumha.org/win5/a/xpvm.php, but I
am not able to either reduce or alter the C: drive setting or delete the
existing pagefile.sys.

The file has now grown to 1.2gb leaving me with 27mb free on C:

Any suggestions please.

Many thanks

Art
