submix8c Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 tech:Should be able to, no problem. Be aware that the second partition must remain the same "mounted" id eg D: as when you "moved" it every time Windows is started. If not, dunno... maybe no start.

adamt Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 You can definitely move pagefile.sys (or rather - create a new one on the second partition and get rid of the first one). IIRC, on NT4, if you moved the pagefile to a partition other than the system partition, you lost the ability to create crashdump files in the event of a BSOD. Not sure if this is still the case with W2K3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
