the initial size is the minimum windows
permits. if you look at the configuration
dialog for the virtual memory, it indicates
the minimum allowed. but you can also
input a 0 or a 1 and you will get a simple
message about it.
you don't have to use 2 and can test your system with
higher sizes, that is if you have the time and
patience. something to realize however, is that windows
will not use more virtual memory than
is necessary. if i'm not mistake the limit is 1.5 times
the size of your physical ram.
so if you max out your page file with
a high amount say like 5 times the ram size, you
will only be wasting that additional space that
has been reserved for vm but "will not" be used by windows.
although automatic resizing is a convenience
for users, it is not always the best option for
some systems, especially the older ones. Thus
windows nags about the low virtual.
my systems are optimized with custom sizes
and i never get that nag. however, other systems may
use the automatic resizing just fine and never get the
nag as well.
here is a link with more fyi on vm:

you can try an custom/initial size of 2 and
max of 1.5 times the physical size
of your ram.
Can you explain an initial size of 2?
