    Hi all

    I'm loving my new AAO w/ 1.5gb of ram however i'm using a nlited winxp SP3 install and i set paging to disabled; yet the page file still keeps coming back after a reboot no matter what i do. it is also 1.5gb in size. And it says my page file is 1.5gb in the Advanced Properties section. It seems like my "No page file" setting is not sticking (Yes i am clicking "Set")

    Anyone else with this problem? Thanks.

    Windows will not delete the previous file, even if you disabled it. Just delete it manualy. Uncheck the hide system files, hidden files 1st, then just delete it.
