I'm sure Pariah has some expertise that I lack. I've been using Windows since 1995, and have tried playing with the swap file settings a few times. At times I've experienced undesired results. I've tried dividing my hard drives into different partitions, only to regret the move because I ran out of space in one partition or another. In the end, my best arrangement has been to let Windows handle the memory and swap file. I leave the swap file on the same hard drive as Windows and all the other software except Poser. Poser does just fine on its own 30GB hard drive. It's a nice simple arrangement and it works.
