Creating an additional page file When additional memory or software applications are installed on the server, errors can occur in the event log, indicating that the C drive is nearing capacity. To solve this problem, move applications located on the C drive to another partition or create a page file. Creating the page file on a separate partition to support the amount of memory in the server is the most efficient solution. After an additional page file has been created, set the page file on the boot partition to the amount of memory in the server. For additional information about creating page files, refer to the Help file, which can be accessed by clicking Start and selecting Help and Support.
