I get a paging file error when starting windows 2000 pro,
but when i change the amounts of the initial size and
maximum size, it only reflects the changed sizes in the
selected drive area. the "total paging file size for all
drives" will only list 20mb. regardless of what i set the
selected drive at. or howmany times i reboot. any advise
would be greatly appretiated.
 
Make sure the permissions on the drive where the pagefile.sys will live are
Everyone Full Permission. Don't propagate to the subfolders and files.
 
George,
I got the same problem. Could you kindly explain how to access the steps
as to " where the pagefile.sys will live are Everyone Full
Permission"......

Thank you.

On the drive where pagefile.sys exists and that you are using, right-click
the drive at the root | Properties | Security | Add | Everyone | Add | OK |
Apply. Here now I cannot replicate this or I will change my permissions.
But I believe what happens is you are queried as to whether you want to
change the permissions for just this folder or all subfolders and files.
You say just this folder then OK.
 
I got the same problem. Will highly appreciate if you could explain the
steps reqd to perform up to "Everyone Full Permission"as I'm quite dumb.
Thank you in advance.
