Virtual Memory Oddity
Hi-
New Here. Running Win 98 SE and my hard drive crashed. Since I have alot of older programs that won't run (optimally) under WIn XP, decided to reinstall Win 98. (I've done this many times before) So I bought a new WD 80 Gig drive, Fdisk'd & formatted it, and installed Windows. Everything went smooth. Loaded up a few drivers, then started to tweak windows. Control Panel/My Computer shows C as having som 76 gig free. So went to set my own virtual memory, and got a surprise. VM says my C drive has all of 10.5 gig free. Never saw this before. Reformatted and reinstalled. Same thing. What have I forgotten to do? Or is there something I need to update? As I said, I've done this a dozen times before, even built whole machines for friends, and never saw this. Can anyone give me a clue? Thanks BJ |
