I have moved my paging file from C: to D:, however once I set the Initial/Maximum settings for D:, I can't clear the settings for C:. Do I still need to have some settings for C:? I keep getting the prompt that I need a minimum of 2mb. I have 1gb of space left on C: and tons of room on D:, that is why I am moving it over. I did reboot and tried clearing the settings but still have no luck. Do I need to delete the paging file from C:? Does C: have to have a setting put in so it can't be left blank? My initial settings for C: were as follow: Initial: 1500 Maximun:1750. I now have these setting on D: as well. So presently I have both drives with the same settings. I was afraid to just put the minimun of 2mb on C: because I was afraid it would lag in performance. Any help would be appreciated...thanks

i would not move it, distribution the page file over different drives is a good thing
