How do I put my pagfile on a seperate partition

[Zab]

I tried a search with pagfile but cam up empty handed.

In XP, go to system properties or just right click My computer, click on the advanced tab, In the Performance box click on settings, click on the advanced tab, go down to Virtual Memory and click on change.

From there you can select the drive and the size of your pagefile.

You came up empty handed because you spelled it wrong. Its Pagefile.

Thanks for the reply cat13 just what I was looking for.

Earthman, I did type "pagefile" when I did a search and selected all forums, still came up with zero matches

Why you cannot find Pagefile:

A SH H:\pagefile.sys

It is a System and Hidden file.

I put my pagefile on my H: partition. Works perfectly in XP Pro.

If you know where your pagefile is located you can type this in a DOS window and find it.

ATTRIB *.*

If you have a lot of root folders and or files type it this way in the DOS window: ATTRIB *.* | MORE

to see one screen full at a time. That will show the attributes of all files.
