Hey Guys,

Just FYI, but when the Low Disk Space error box pops up, if I click on it I get the Disk Cleanup utility, showing everything at 0kb.

ahhhh I see what the problem is... ok do what I said about reformating D, dont worry it wonbt erase anything.. and then go to the page file click on C and click no page file..click set.. then go to D and click custiom page file.. Put only 1024 and 1024 in the min and max boxes. seems you put all the space for the page file so ya windows is correct.

it's because the page file does not have any junk files in it :-)

:-D Very funny mister wife maligner

I am glad you said that, because format is grayed out in Disk Manager. Will reset to 1024 (I know I set that number before somewhere...)

Let you know.

Its probebly greyed out becuase you cant format a drive with a pagefile on it , you would have to move/delete it first.

But in youre case , changing the size is enough.

OK Done and done,

Now can someone please 'splain to me why giving the Page File drive the maximux amount of space is a bad thing? Just tryin' to understand this darn thing :smiley_pc:

Thanks Guys, so far so good.
