Pagefile ignores (minimum) setting
Hi.
My paging file is stuck on a minimum on 383mb, despite my Windows settings (and the registry key) with my minimum setting of 512mb to 1024mb.
When I change the setting to something else, the swap file size rises to the just-specified minimum (if you set it below current allocation it needs to reboot). But on reboot, it'll reset to 383mb.
Scanned with Norton Antivirus and Ad-Aware. I've checked the boot up programs but nothing there which seems to set the page file.

- Never mind. As soon as there's a lull in my Uni study I'll back up my work and just restore a Norton Ghost image I made - I suppose this is why I made it in the first place. It won't be a complete waste cos I probably am due for a format anyway.Thanks for trying to help VCraig!( incase you're still curious:smileytongue:, Windows XP Home SP1 (Dell) )
