I am running win2k with 384MB RAM.

What size should I have my Page file set to?

Currently it is set at 684MB. I thought it should not need to be that big.

Any suggestions?

Thanks...

It's advisable to set the max and min sizes to the same number. I just set it to whatever Win2k advises after the first reboot or two after a fresh install.

It really depends on what your doing. This is one of those things where there is no completely correct answer, except what works for you.

Just keep the min and max the same, or if not put it on a separate partition at the beginnning of the hard drive (i.e. C:\ is the pagefile partition, D:\ is Win2k or whatever you wanna call it)
