HI Brandon,

Right click on "My Computer" go to properties/advanced/performance
settings/advanced/virtual memory. press the change button
First select the C drive then select custom size set the min max to the
same amount. For 1 gig of ram use 3072 as min./max, for 2 gigs use 4096.
Second select each of the other drives listed and choose 'No paging
File" for each drive other than the C drive.
Press OK then apply and then reboot and you should be good.

Click Start, then right-click My Computer and select Properties.

Click the Advanced tab, then click the Settings button in the Performance
pane.

Click the Advanced tab, then click Change in the Virtual Memory pane.

You can set your swap file location/size here.

Pretty simple, eh?

Thanks Bill G for the wonderful UI!
