Duckfather Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 Hi allI have a WinPE based (not BartPE) installation system for Windows XP running from a DVD. The WinPE was built from Windows XP SP2 (don't know exactly what version that makes it).On a HP Compaq nx8220 laptop (and many other IDE machines) it boots fine.However, on a SATA box, namely an nc6400 laptop, it boots fine (I've added the SATA drivers to WinPE manually), detects the drive, and then decides to create a pagefile on it! This kills my build, as I then can't blow away the drive as the pagefile for the WinPE boot is now on it As far as I'm aware, WinPE is supposed to make a pagefile if it has low memory (this laptop has 512MB of RAM)Recap :-system1laptop : nx8220memory : 128MBdisk type : IDENO PAGEFILEsystem2laptop : nc6400memory : 512MBdisk type : SATAPAGEFILE CREATEDI found a similar post from August, but the thread tapers off with no fix (link to similar post)Anyone any ideas? I'm stuffed if I can't get this working Thanks in advanceAndy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
