pagefile

So back in december I built my customer a new PC. Specs: Ryzen 3700x, 32GB of RAM, Gigabyte B550 Gaming X, ADATA 2tb SSD, 700w powersupply, 8tb ironwolf pro hard drive and a 2tb seagate baracuda hard drive, GTX 1660 super. The issue has been the same and I have changed out under warranty...

Hello fellow windows users, usually I solve those issues by myself but this one is weird. This is my first post in this forum :) Lately I noticed that sometimes when my PC is left alone for a few hours, I come back to many closed\crashed apps for example: Geforce Experience, iCue, Asus GPU...

Hi all, I have a MacBook Pro with Bootcamp, on which I am running Windows 7. I've had it since 2011 and think the system has accumulated a lot of junk over the years. My question is this: I have very little installed on my hard drive but the memory is nearly full and my laptop is being VERY...

Is there a way NOT to enable + disable Pagefile.sys through Systems dialog but with a Registry key? When enabling from disbaled state it should take the previously (eventually in the past) set partition location and file size. If this is not possible then pagefile.sys should be set to "system...

Is hiberfil.sys always automatically on the same partition as pagefile.sys? If not: How can I tell Win 7 that it should be this way? Or alternatively: How can I tell Win 7 that hiberfil.sys should be on partition D: ? Peter

Back to running Windows-7-pro. Still more solid than 8.1 or beta-10. I have 16-gigs of ram on the board. Windows-7 sees it, but I often wondered if it actually uses it. I had the pagefile at 12-gigs. So I did a test. I moved 38-gigs from one sata drive to another sata drive. The desktop...

Greetings Microsoft, Since Windows largely dominates the OS most gamers, even regular Windows users own, I highly recommend the size of the OS you will be creating to be much smaller, I started gaming on Windows 98SE and it took up about 2GB of storage space, my performance with my games was...

I have a Sony VGN-FZ21M laptop that it lacks an internal HDD. Wanting to use it, I have managed to install Windows 7 x64 on a USB 2.0 External HDD. There is certainly a performance decrease due to the External HDD's speed but I can live on that. So, although the laptop has 2GB of RAM, I am...

In another thread from a senior member whs : I absolutely recommend to put the OS on the SSD. And leave all system files on the SSD. Just get rid of the hiberfile (the command is powercfg - h off) and reduce the pagefile to 2GBs. And if you got SP1 via the update cycle, delete the Link...

Hi there, I have been having headaches with my windows machine. Recently started. All my drivers are up-to-date, and i cannot figure out what the reason is. No recent hardware changes as well. I even reformatted and did a fresh install to have the same problems again. BSOD occurs without any...

I'm trying to move my pagefile.sys to a separate hard drive, but to no avail. Let me be clear up front: I know what I'm doing. I don't need a list of ethics on why it's bad, or not bad, to do so. I don't care about one's opinion on whether or not it should be done. I'm going to do it. That being...
