I have a dell notebook with a fresh build of windows 2000 and the machine is now saying that the pagefile is too small or nonexistant. There are 14 gigs free on the harddrive. Under the Administrator password, windows explorer says that the harddrive is 0GB with 0GB free. Why is it doing this?

Thanks

I also got this problem on Compaq laptop.
It seams like somehow w2000 remove the administrator rights to the harddisk.

I try to reinstall w2000, now it's better.
Sometime still have the message but pressing ok still can work.

If this is a fresh install off M/S disk not Dell OEM, you might contact Dell to see if they have a HAL.DLL for that system. Some manufactures modify the software to fit their systems/hardware.

Good luck
