- I haven't touched or even seen Windows NT with my own eyes, but I
- have 1 question which I hope can be answered.
-
- Why does everyone keep talking about a 20meg min for the swapfile???
- I am a single user who will?? be running NT with 16megs of ram and
- no network stuff. Will I have to devote 20megs of hard drive to a
- swapfile which I should never have to touch. Also, is the swapfile
- able to change size on the fly IF I needed more virtual memory?
