Not stpuid, just unknowing:
If you open MY Computer, you're essentially in the first of many windows
that entail Windows Exploer. To actually open Explorer, Click Start,
Programs, Accessories, Windows Explorer.

If you are wanting to view the 'pagefile.sys', you'll need to mkae folder
options changes. Open your "C:\" drive (since this is where your pagefile
is), then click at the top of the window on tools, folder options, view tab.
Then select the radio button under Hidden Files and folder "Show hidden
files and folders", then scroll down to "Hide protected operating system
files (Recommended)", and uncheck that, apply and OK out. You then will see
the pagefile.sys.
