Thanks for the link but that does not address my problem of windows
not allowing me to change the setting. The only choices I have are no

setting (and hit set) when I reboot it goes right back to 2 1024.

Not knowing whether it matters or not, does the procedure

"Microsoft Windows XP", step 7, set forth a requirement of three "OKs"
(closing menues only ?) after the "set" and before restart. I guess this
applies for the custom option as well, and something you presumably have done.

Thanks for the reply. Yes I have OK'd out of the menues and it still
will not change (although it does change in the registry). After
reboot it reports "total page file for all drives 1024" even though
the registry reports what I set it to which is 3070 3070.
