If you've got the time do this. Re-partition the hard disk like this...
PART1 256 MB <C:>
PART2 256 MB <Y:>
PART3 ~3.5GB <D:>
Install as follows:
C:\WINNT -- operating system
D:\ORANT -- Oracle
Y:\ -- pagefile.sys Start w/ 75 MB
You'll get 300MB "usable" virtual memory, and a lot less disk thrashing.
