Page file location

I use Windows XP Home, and I'm thinking of installing a second hard drive to hold the page file (as recommended by Microsoft) to ease the burden on the main drive

But, if I move pagefile.sys to the second drive, will Windows find it
Or is there a way to point Windows to the new location

I've moved the swap file to another drive when running Win98, but I've a feeling it won't be as easy under XP

I'd appreciate any advice.
 
Thanks for that Will!
Yes, it would seem that when I do install a second drive, I will then get the option of selecting which one hosts the main pagefile. Just a case then of configuring the current one on C: to a minimum size.

Merry Christmas!
