I think I had a memory dump to my pagefile.sys. It is now
taking up 1.5gigs. How do I clear this out to recover
space?

Hi, Bald Eagle.
Nope.
The memory dump is to a different file altogether. Search your boot volume
for all *.dmp files and you should find it.
Pagefile.sys is recreated as an empty file each time you reboot, so putting
the dump here would do no good. To manage your page file, go to System
Properties | Advanced | Performance | Advanced | Virtual Memory | Change.
(I'm using WinXP; it's been over two years since I ran Win2K. I seem to
recall that the steps were slightly different, but I'm sure you can find
it.) My suggestion is to choose to just "let Win2K manage it".
