So I have played with this and get nowhere. It worked fine now it doesn't. What would make my paging file size drop? I have my virtual memory setup for the system to determine. I have tried manual configuration of 2046 startup and 4096 maximum. I need some Ideas here. I run 2 HD with paging files set up on both. I have tried letting one use the paging file and that didn't help either. The strange part is I run Norton System WOrks 2002 and it shows in one column my PFU unused is 4096 in another column it showes unsed is 0.0, which I found quite odd. So someone give me some help here. <br> Thanks
Mlodorous I'm assuming this is an NT/Win2k/XP system cos I've only seen this with both of these.<br> <br> The virtual memory setup in Win2k is an incomplete science. Normally this error occurs when When you set the paging file (Pagefile.sys) on your computer to a size that is lower than the recommended size of 12 megabytes plus the amount of random access memory.<br> <br> <br> <br><br><i>This message was edited by Alyson_J on 05 Nov 2001 12:15 AM</i>

Yes sorry it is with XP. I have read the link you posted and trying some things off of it. I didn't have the initial set to 12MB plus my ram so that may have been my problem. Will post about the results.
