"removable device" "swap file" in a search engine shows this up to be a vain hope. Windows and apparently even *nix will not allow a device that it has marked as removable to hold the swap file.
So to use fabulous new cheap memory to boost the performance of one's older XP or below system, one will have to think of another idea than the swap file on it. >So I tested this theory with an available 2GB CF card.

Everything looks >correct in System, but the reality is that there's still a >pagefile.sys on C: and none on the CF drive.
