in XP: Prevent Windows Kernel From Using PagingExecutive Function | Windows | Tech-Recipes on Tech-Recipes
Agree with the comment that the paging process swaps out infrequently used stuff rather than trying to make the Kernel run somewhere else than in RAM.
I have an XP system with a 2 Gb CompactFlash pretending to be a hard disk. It has about 0.9 Gb free, and the system has 0.5 Gb main memory, which I am sure is enough for my primitive needs. I would rather have XP dump infrequently used data than to try to write it to the CompactFlash.
Whether or not I use the Control Panel to specify "no page file," XP refuses to create a page file--not sure whether this is because it has identified C: as Removable, or whether it is unable to allocate its recommended 0.75 Gb contiguously. I have the system in a state where it no longer nags me, but I saw this Registry entry and followed a Google search here.
Separately, Toshiba suspend/resume seems to crash on suspend if a page file is not present, and I'm hoping it will not crash if I disable the entire paging executive.

in Nashuatelegraph.com: Stabile steps aside with decidedly mixed feelings on Nashua Telegraph
Mr. Stabile recognized that this is not the sports business but the hospitality business. To contradict his humility, he was indeed a "retail guy," and a good one, whether greeting fans on their way in, or inviting us up to the luxury level during a miserable rain delay. He added a kiddie playground and live music before the game, reasons to bring the family regardless of whether they like baseball. When the play got especially ragged, he got more involved. I hope he'll do more than just turn up in the cheap seats, but remind his co-owners to keep putting customer satisfaction first.
But, again, the citizens of NH's high-tech capital have other alternatives than go to the ballpark every night. Tickets did not and will not just sell themselves; it's going to take constant work.

in Whatever it takes to get it done on Nashua Telegraph
Cheers to our new prospective owners from a Holman fixture for the last 11 years. Glad to know they understand there will be challenges; largest, in my opinion, is that the citizens of New Hampshire's technology city have broadband and Nintendo at home and won't come to the ballpark every night unless you sell them on the experience. Nashua has a lot of Latinos who would, but not at $7 a pop. I don't mind renaming stuff or tie-ins with other shows, but if you ditch the Pride name--which has a decade of familiarity and more positives than negatives--it seems you are forcing yourselves to start over at educating the public. Looking forward to another summer at Holman!
