I have 3 physical drives in my machine. Cboot) Ddata)
EData) I used partition magic to carve out about 30 megs
each off D: and E: and made a stripe drive (S using XP
software of 60 megs. All of this worked fine.

Problem is - the page file won't stay on S:. I set it up
with all drives but S: with "No Paging File" set and S:\
with 1024 MB set. It OK's through all that and after the
reboot the page file is on C:\! Settings are exacty what I
set them as (on S?

What is going on?

Could it be that the S: drive is not being 'created' till after Windows
starts and, therefore, there really is no S: drive in existance when the
swap file is created?
