Off topic question for NT/2K gurus

Post by Eyke »

Good day:

Running W2K SP3
768 MB RAM
C: Win system files, shared files, profile files only
C: paging file 768-1536 MB ("repaired" install, need to drop this to min requirement)
c: free space 1877 MB

D: Program install dirs and everything else
D: paging file 2048-2048 MB
D: free space 9474 MB

When I run DBMON, I get the following echo:

896: Paging file check expired.
896: CPagingFileThresholdDetector::IsThresholdExceeded ()
896: PagingFileUsedPercentage = 10
896: Paging file check expired.
896: CPagingFileThresholdDetector::IsThresholdExceeded ()
896: PagingFileUsedPercentage = 10
896: Paging file check expired.
896: CPagingFileThresholdDetector::IsThresholdExceeded ()
896: PagingFileUsedPercentage = 10

This goes on ad nauseam. Any idea how to fix this?

This probably explains why Cacheman displays N/A for the paging file

Thanks for any help

i don't really have a clue but you can use the task manager to see what program is behind this process "896" (this number will change each time)

I checked, this time it was 906 which relates to TaskManagerShel

This a relatively recent phenomenon..... :?

OK, found the problem. Entropia client was causing that weird output in dbmon. It also owned TaskManagerShel. I was running FightAIDS@home.

Cheers!
