I have been trying to set the size of my virtual memory to a custom size and
am having mixed results. Sometimes, after setting to the custom size and
rebooting the changes look they they worked. Other times, it is as though I
made no changes at all and the setting is back to no page file. Has anyone
else encountered this? Anybody have a fix? I have Windows Vista Business
with all updates applied.

Thanks.

Hi Tim,

I'm not sure what you are trying to accomplish with setting the VM manually,
however it is not unusual for it to revert back to system defaults when the
settings cannot be implemented on startup.

Let the O/S control the page file size.
 
What antivirus do you have? I have read that some people had this problem on
reboot if Norton was present.
