Re: Can't Change Page File in Windows XP

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.

Is your computer infested with any Norton/Symantec Products? Some
versions of that crapware have been known to interfere with pagefile
settings.

Good luck
