Everytime i restart my system in win2k, i get a "paging file not present or too small." But it is present, and it is plenty large enough. So i am wondering if anyone has had this problem before and, if so, what can i do to get it to go away?????

Make sure you and the system has the read/write access rights to the pagefile if you're using NTFS.

that is always a sure fire way to do it. You could have also deleted or relocated the paging file. It sounds like it was corrupt.

I read it somewhere that you can enlarge the page size but forget where the doc is. Try reading the MS tech database.

This has come up a few times here. I think I was the first with the problem. Anyway, this problem seems to happen when the drive letter that Win2k is insalled on, gets changed.
