Hey, when I built my comp I made a bunch of different partitions, but only left 10GB for OS and stuff, which I think is a mistake now.

But what the problem is, I'm trying to patch BF2 and it says I need 3GB space to update it. Well, if I add up all the files on the drive it's only 5GB, but the computer shows only 2GB space left. Now I assume that the Page File is allocated to the drive, but what else is there that I can maybe change to be able to get the 3GB needed? Can I change the page file to be used on a different partition safely?

Thanks,

Tigge

Can you expand the partition?

Have you got partition manager, or ACRONIS disk director (recommended)?
Even if you shift the pagefile, you still shouldn't have anywhere near 90% usage of the partition - tends to slow things up - and you won't be able to defrag.
