To solve another problem, I reinstalled Windows XP on my wife's Presairo 3000 laptop. Occasionally, the system loads completely, but usually it hangs on the welcome screen. I also get a message that the page file is missing. When I go to the system section of the control panel and update the page file size it does not take effect (after rebooting). This problem also occurred before I reinstalled windows XP. I have run chkdsk /r a couple of times, once before reinstalling the operating system and once after. Is there a problem I can fix or is my disk just kaput?
Thanks
