MasterJukey Posted October 10, 2005 Author Share Posted October 10, 2005 Initially pagingfile is located at the beginning of the disk... But If Windows needs to enlarge pagingfile, the pagefile will be divided in 2 part, or it will be moved (larger than initially) at the end of the disk...I would want that pagingfile it remain at the beginning of the disc...

drscouse Posted October 10, 2005 Share Posted October 10, 2005 Check out:http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documen...fileconfig.mspxI too have a raptor, but stick my pagefile on a secondary SATA (different channel).. I have it so during install it moves pagefile, sets the size, and deletes the old one...http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=53664&hl= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RogueSpear Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 (edited) Here is a VBscript subroutine I wrote for resizing the page file to twice the amount of RAM in a system. Been using it for years without problems.Sub ConfigPageFile Dim strComputer, objWMIService, objSWbemServices, colPageFile, colSWbemObject Dim colSWbemObjectSet, objSWbemObject, objPageFile, SystemRAM strComputer = "." Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:{impersonationLevel=impersonate}!\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2") Set objSWbemServices = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer) Set colPageFile = objWMIService.ExecQuery ("SELECT * FROM Win32_PageFileSetting") Set colSWbemObjectSet = objSWbemServices.InstancesOf("Win32_LogicalMemoryConfiguration") For Each objSWbemObject In colSWbemObjectSet SystemRAM = objSWbemObject.TotalPhysicalMemory / 1024 Next For Each objPageFile In colPageFile objPageFile.InitialSize = 2 * SystemRAM objPageFile.MaximumSize = 2 * SystemRAM objPageFile.Put_ NextEnd SubConfigPageFile Edited October 11, 2005 by RogueSpear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterJukey Posted October 11, 2005 Author Share Posted October 11, 2005 Tnx !!!!!But when i have to launch this script ? During T12 (when i install hotfixes) ? Before ?I use RunOnceEx.cmd ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogueSpear Posted October 11, 2005 Share Posted October 11, 2005 (edited) You cannot run the script from cmdlines.txt because it relies on WMI and WMI is not yet available at the cmdlines stage of setup. Note also that what I posted is simply a subroutine. In order for it to run all you should have to do is add one line to the bottom of the script (make it the last line):ConfigPageFileIn fact I'm going to edit the post to reflect that.
