when windows 2000 boots up and i log in i get an error
stating that i have no paging file and it tells me how to
resolve this but after i click ok it wont log in and takes
me back to the login box... is there any solution to
this.. anyone please help????
 
A couple of possibilities;

Make sure that the System account (NT Authority) has full control of the
%systemdrive% and or the drive your trying to put the pagefile on. My
Computer|Drive|File|Properties|Security|Permissions

Also you'll want to make any pagefile changes through Control Panel|System,
not through Computer Management.

The only fixes for a non-networked pc that I know of is to reset the drive
permissions from a parallel install, or possibly by temp installing the
drive in another NT machine and resetting permissions, else try an in-place
upgrade.
