Is there a recommended way to eliminate or size down the Win2K pagefile when making a drive image of the OS partition? Currently, my pagefile is 400MB or 33% of the data to be backed up.

TIA, Olias

I shut my swap file off then delete it. Then make the image and then reset the swap back to normal..

Just delete it before making image. When Win2K boots back up it will recreate the pagefile.
