Your System Has No Paging File, or the Paging File Is Too ..

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

I had some kind of blue screen error and had to repair the windows
installation. I essentially went through a re-install and afterwards, I
get
the above error.

I found a couple articles. One about NTFS permissions which I checked and
are correct. The other was something about Intel chipsets which I don't
believe I have the chipsets mentioned.

The Performance settings show that a page file is set on the C: drive (the
only drive) however it shows the size is actually zero.

I've installed all the updates, removed and re-added the page file. I'm
not
sure how to make it come back.

Any ideas?

Thank you very much.

Gary

It is probably a permission error of some kind! I have seen this exact
problem when the "Everyone" group is denied access to the "C" drive. Since
you reinstalled, maybe some of the permissions are screwed up.
