New System Will Not Accept Paging File

I finally upgraded my system to an Asus dual/AMD64 1 gig ram, 800 Gigs total HDD including portables.
I have tried to have windows keep the settings, I have tried about 6 different settings on my C drive and the empty D drive (400Gigs), and nothing I do works.
When I come back from the reboot, I get the message "System has no pagin file or it is to small".

 

I have tried to get it to go to my new drive D. It has nothing on it yet. 400 G drive. I have also tried to get it to go to the C drive. I have done the same to let XP find a place either on the C or the D. Nothing is working.

 

See if this helps, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315270

BINGO!
I have been looking for a file like that all day
I will report back after I copy the page so I know what I'm doing in safemode.
BB shortly!
TY TY TY!!!

 

Either I am very tired, or....This does NOT make sence!

This is part of the instructions from MS/s site. NP going to safemode. NP finding the name of my machine. This is where I am going a bit bonkers... 4. On the File menu, click Properties. - -WHAT FILE MENU? where
----------------
Cancel that text. I had to download a special file in order to see this. It was not on my machine.

 

I would think the File menu on the top left-hand side. Did you do the a thru f steps?

I was missing the 'security' setting
I have bee trying to get it going, and it STILL is not working.
What you showed me is exactly what I need but... The fella that set this machine up, did not do a complete job I rekon. This should have been done by him!
I am totally stuck now. I am at a point where I feel like i should just wipe the HDD and start from scratch, again. I've lost to much time diddeling around!

 

I am going to reinstall XP, the computer name and MY name are messed up. That is why this is not working. OH well, if you want it done right ya gotta do it yourself! Night all
