Default Disk space

Hi Tom,

Are you using one of the computers at the library? I use the one at the
office in my apartment complex. I think it is faster than the one at the
local library. I'm not sure though cause I don't got no millisecond meter.
Do you know where I can get one of them?

This must be the case with both of us,.....in someone's narrow mind.

Have a good one, JAX

The physical movement of the heads back and forth is what causes the hit,

to
say nothing of unnecessary additional wear.

With the speed of modern HD's it would not be noticeable, unless you can

see
milliseconds.

Moving the page file to a different partition on the same HD causes a
performance hit due to the fact the head is constantly moving back and

forth
to write to/read from it.

It is possible to run XP on that size partition, with that much

free
space,
I've done it but, it is too complicated for most users to keep it
running
that way.


The original poster could move the swap file to D:, that could free

up
a
few
hunderd megs.
