I have a system partition on an NT server that is approaching capacity. I've heard that the pagefile can be moved to another partition but haven't been able to find the exact steps that need to be taken.

right mouse click My Computer and go to properties. Select the performance tab and then the Change button. Highlight the other drive letter you wish to have the pagefile on. Set the amount the same for min and max which is recommended by MS. Set the pagefile on your boot partition to 0. Say OK and you will get a message about rebooting.

Reboot.

You will also get a message about not being able to save debug information. Ignore it since this info has never helped anyone I have heard of solve a crash problem.
