As for the page file on a different partition, bad idea unless it is on a different physical disk. There is a reason that is at the beggining of your primary disk. Speed. If you have say a 40 gig partition for the OS and then a partition for the swap, eventually your disk will fail. same reason that if you are running say vista with 512ram, your disk will be thrashing constantly trying to read the pagefile because there is not enough ram, the disk will be over worked and eventually fail. |
