The pagefile.sys is your swap file. You may change it to what ever size you
wish in the Control Panel. It is also called virtual memory. Windows NT will
set it for you but if you feel that you need to increase it you may do it
manually in the Control Panel by doing the following:
1. Click start to access the control panel.
2. Once you have the control panel open, double-click the System icon
(picture of computer,monitor,mouse,keyboard).
3. Click the Perfomance folder.
4. You will see a title that says Vitural Memory and a brief description
saying Total paging file size of all disk volumes.
5. If you want to change the the size of the Virtual Memory, click change.
6. You can change the virtual memory on any of your drives.
Just remember you must be in administrator mode to make the change and then
you need to reboot the computer it order to the change to take affect.
Sincerely,
Thomas Garcia
