Click the Advanced tab, and then click Change under Virtual memory. Under Drive [Volume Label], click the drive that contains the paging file that you want to change. I used the article to delete the pagefile rebooted and its gone now do I need to turn in back on? I have 4gb memory in the system so what should the page file be?
I would be surprised if the server took a big performance hit from reducing the page file. Since its only used when the RAM is full. As it is a terminal server the OS probably uses 1 -2 GB and each user will consume 1GB per user so there isn't much to play with. If the perfomance is ok then carry on but if it sucks then you'll need to increase it. If you would take a look into any system Windows 7 x64 here with abou 32GB Ram and open some apps.
To continue this discussion, please ask a new question. High values for these counters excessive paging indicate disk access of generally 4 KB per page fault on x86 and x64 versions of Windows and Windows Server. This disk access might or might not be related to page file activity but may contribute to poor disk performance that can cause system-wide delays if the related disks are overwhelmed. Therefore, we recommend that you monitor the disk performance of the logical disks that host a page file in correlation with these counters.
Be aware that a system that has a sustained hard page faults per second experiences KB per second disk transfers. No performance counter directly measures which logical disk the hard page faults are resolved for. Not all the memory on the modified page list is written out to disk.
If a system is configured to have more than one page files, the page file that responds first is the one that is used. This means that page files that are on faster disks are used more frequently. Be aware that actual page file usage depends greatly on the amount of modified memory that the system is managing. This means that files that already exist on disk such as. Only modified data that does not already exist on disk for example, unsaved text in Notepad is memory that could potentially be backed by a page file.
After the unsaved data is saved to disk as a file, it is backed by the disk and not by a page file. Skip to main content.

Note During startup, system-managed page files are sized respective to the system crash dump settings. Note Not all the memory on the modified page list is written out to disk.
That, combined with the need to go to disk all the time, can result in poor server performance. You may also know that moving the page file off the system drive can increase performance.
