cant drive letter for virtual memory

surreal5335 · 11-06-2009, 04:18 AM

Hi,

I am having a problem changing the drive letter for my virtual memory, currently the system is stuck on C drive. The problem is this drive does not exist, G drive on the other hand has the paging file probably bc its the master drive. I have made many attempts to switch over to G drive, but it never saves the change. I have tried making the change in safe mode after a suggestion on the net, but that failed as well.

Does anyone have any ideas as to how to get the virtual memory to read from G drive and not C drive (which does not exist).

Thanks a lot for your help

The paging file is the virtual memory.

well it seems that while the page file is on G, Windows is looking for it on C and wont accept the change I keep trying for it to look in G.
Any thoughts?
