I want to know how to turn off vitrual memory and the page file altogether. I know a lot about computers and I'm pretty sure 1GB of Ram is good enough, when I got to the virtual memory settings I select no paging file, and reboot, winows still has and uses virtual memory. Using Norton Utitlities System Information it says I have a lot more then my physical ram under Total Windows Memory, so How can I turn it off?
 
Right click My Computer->properties->advanced->performance->"settings" button->advanced->virtual memory->change
 
make sure you hit the set button after you set it to no page file, then delete the pagefile.sys file from your root drive.

And remember some programs such as Adobe Photoshop require Virtual memory and won't run without it :)

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
