Well, I would use WinPE 3.0. Ok, so we got that figured out - WinPE loads into a ramdisk. Therefore, does it have a pagefile? Where's the logic after that? Why would it have a pagefile on ramdisk - using up ram for purposes of ram? EDIT: Besides, recommended size of the pagefile is 1.5 times the amount of physical ram. That's kinda impossible. So my question remains - does WinPE create and use a pagefile?
