Hi,

I have a WD 36Gb hd(10k rpm) C: E:
WD 250Gb (7k rpm) D: F:

Does it matter if i set the page file on other partition than C:?
cuz c drive is running low in space.

I would place the page file on D: or F: and off the physical drive the OS is on.

For your issue, no. IF you were experiencing an issue that was causing blue screens and you wanted a dump or to report the issue via MS OCA (Online Crash Analysis), the answer would be yes. If you are out of space, move. Also, disable hibernation as it also creates a file that is usually the size of your memory.
