Boris Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 You can resize it or move it to another drive here - but at your own risk ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 My pagefile was the same size originally, but I upped it to 1.5GB, and that doesn't give me any problems. I run numerous large applications all the time (Office, Visual Studio, etc.), so I rather not risk having a limited pagefile.If you do not have multiple large applications running, then you may not need this size pagefile.Isn't there a tool out there that gives some statistics on pagefile usage?

expertec Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 Why should it being 768MB bother you, unless you are severely short of hard drive space?The recommended size for a pagefile is 1.5 times the amount of RAM, thus my system with 512 has a 768MB page file.:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devils_Knight Posted May 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 Ok, thanks guys, I didn't know much about that part. I just saw the other day and was wondering if that was normal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
