Hi

I am using a duel boot system with win98SE on my FAT32 C: drive and win2k on my NTFS D: drive. I am using fixed sizes for both OS's swap files. Is there any way that I can make them use the same file?

I heard sometime ago that people did it with NT4 and win98. They changed the name of the win98 swap file to pagefile.sys in some .ini file

If you know how to do this enlighten me please ;)

I have seen someone post at one time that this can be done.

However, I can't remember how. :)

There might be some kind of .ini file that states what the pagefile is. Instead of it being pagefile.sys, change it to win386.swp

Yes, look at [l]tweak3d.net[/l]'s Win2K Mem/HD Tweak Guide for instructions how. Very easy (second method).
