    Nope...
    My personal idea of best settings...
    256mb RAM = 1024 Virtual Memory
    512mb RAM = 1536 Virtual Memory
    1024mb RAM = 2048 Virtual memory
    1536mb RAM = 2560 Virtual Memory.
    2gb RAM = no Virtual Memory!

    I didnt...

    but a quote from xelink:
    the best way to use it is to set it to a seperate harddrive and not your main HDD as that harddrive is nto being fully utilized and will leave the highest potential towards the pagefile.

    Start - Run - msconfig

    Then turn of programs that slow your start up and running time.
