  1. I've recently installed a Western Digital 120GB Caviar HDD as a slave drive into my XP machine. One of the partitions I created was 1.4 GB for Virtual Memory. Now every time I boot my machine I get a "helpful" message from Windows letting me know that my partition is full and would i like to clean it up or remove some files. (This may be due to the fact that XP sees it as the primary drive, and the other two partitions are logical drives)

    I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get rid of this message, though. Am I just blind and overlooking something obvious, or is this something I need to pull TweakUI out for or a registry hack or something?

    It's a small inconvenience I know, but I'd like to banish it.

    Just set your page file to a max less the amount on the drive.

    the only problem is that this means I have to make my virt. memory less than I want it to be (twice the size of my actual memory) or I have to make the partition bigger, thereby taking up even more space on the drive (not to mention that I'd have to repartition the whole drive, which means I'd have to wait until I could lose my video files)

    Is there anyway to just tell Windows to stop reminding me?

    I doubt you'd miss 60mb of virtual memory since you have 1.4gig.
