    You did it correctly....:up: Did you get a prompt to reboot
    your computer in order for the changes to take effect?

    Edit: I just noticed your Norton desktop icon. A large part
    of your memory usage is dedicated to Norton. It's a huge
    resource hog.

    You need to respond to that Supra. If you did not get the reboot prompt that means that you did not properly save the settings. Paging file will not change until the computer reboots. SO, if you didn't get the prompt you may not have "OKd" your way out.

    Sorry I didn't reply I had to go somewhere real quick. Yes I did get the prompt to reboot my computer and looks like it has gotten better. Yes I have Norton 360 so it take a huge slice in the physical memory ?
