If you're not having problems, I'd ignore the PC Pitstop results.  If
Windows says you have a swapfile, then you have a swapfile.

And you didn't lose 3 Mhz.  The measuring program is wrong by 0.7%.  Not
unusual at all for speed measurements to come out slightly low.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Virtual Memory and swap file

I ran PC Pitstop and it said my swap file was disabled and that meant a
serious problem. Also my 450 Mhz   has gone to 447mhz according to the
results.  I am running Windows 98 SE on Gateway PentiumIII 450  with 192
ram. MY Gateway is 5 years old. I have two hard drives C and D .

My Virtual Memory is checked for windows to manage it.

Question is why has my swap file been disabled and also what has caused the
lost of 3mhz of clock speed? Is this really a serious problem with swap
files disabled and loss of mhz ? I do not know much on how to do the inner
part of PC.
