Anyway, the page file is just an area of the hard drive that the OS allocates to be used like RAM (memory). It's just temporary storage.

Ideally you shouldn't need a page file as it isn't anywhere near as fast as actual memory and just causes your HDD to have to run needlessly generating heat, noise and wasting power, not to mention increasing the potential for hardware failure.

Here ya go.


I find that the Vista Performance Information works much better.

You don't even get to use your PC most of the time, so I wouldn't really call it yours.


Also lol 9800GTX; I don't get why it ranks that at the same level as the GTX 260/280 and 4870/X2. 1440x900? Lame!

My laptop I use to browse the forums while a game loads and stuff. I use it quite a bit.

I'm ordering a new monitor :D two monitors FTW.

And yes, it is mine. It sits next to my bed, and I am the only one with an account.

I've found that setting it at around four gigs helped my old computer run, but with 3 Gigs in this computer that I have, there's not much use for it except when I running certain games.
