Arghh Page File Mayhem!

[Diabolical82]

I tried to change my pagefile size to 1024mb but for some reason my computer being so stubborn and revert back to 1535mb... i even disabled my page file then set it to 1024... finally it worked! but until the next reboot it change back to old 1535... any idea why this is happening?

How did you change it? Gui - .reg - .inf - .cmd

Part of unattended or on existing installation etc.

Happens very rarely - that too on a windows install that has crossed its 2nd month (too old, collecting junk). By that point, everytime windows boots up it needs voracious amounts of membory and so resizes the page file.

But if you use the Admin VBscript method to set the page-file on a fresh install, it will work just fine (atleast until you have too much junk loading at startup).
