re: your system has no paging file, or the paging file is too small Friday, December 29, 2006 at 3:58 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Kevin (2 messages posted) I also had the same problem - searched long and hard for solution... then found it here - thanks. But, not sure which solution worked as I tried two at the same time in sheer frustration. I RENAMED the paging file entry in the registry in all occurrences of CONTROLSET to PPAGEFILE.SYS and changed the MFT entry for pagefile.sys (yes it was there but not being recognised!) to PAGEFILE.SSS - and all is now working as it should. I can now change the pagefile using control panel !!!
