Has anyone ever had a problem when trying to move large amounts of data (>500mb) from a WinNT server to a Win2k server? I am getting the error message "Insufficient System Resources" after the file move intiates. It looks like it moves about half way but then stops with that error message. I have a feeling it has something to do with the paging file but I'm just not sure.

I have seen all these articles and the Pagedpoolsize seems to be the right choice but I'm not sure exactly how to calculate my pagepoolsize or where to find it in order to alter it

Check the properties of the paging file by right-clicking My Computer, and then clicking Properties. On the Advanced tab, click Performance Options.
Enter the limit and destination you wish for your paging file i.e D: min- 512 max- 1026.

right click mydoc and do properties. on user prop, choose performance and select background, fix your digit to 500 - 700 (if you have a normal size drive) **512 max- 1026. ** on a regula size drive will eat up all your mems. or just get two sticks of 512 megs if your desperate for speed. though 500 - 700 config / runs as good as going on max, beside it saves you rams, and avoid conflict problems.
