Start --> Settings ---> Control Panel ---> System ---> Advanced System Settings. Under the Advanced tab, go to PERFORMANCE Settings.Then go to the Advanced tab again. In advance memory tab you can find out Virtual Memory, click CHANGE. Then Select Drive D: and then select NO PAGING FILE, and then click SET. Restart the system.

Re: Recovery D partition in HP

If you reinstall Vista from an installation or recovery disk, you don't have to do anything. The C drive and D drive created by default.Go to My Computer, D-drive, make sure there is only one folder in the D-drive, the one named "Recovery" and nothing else. By creating your own /D: you may have confused the process.If there is any other folders, move them to the C-drive, and remember that location for the application that places files in that folder.
