Possible Duplicates:
Windows Swap (Page File): Enable or Disable?
Can we decrease page swapping?

My system has a 5GB RAM.
And my paging file size is 2GB

Even though I have many RAM, page-swapping still occurs. But I don't want to that.

I know how adjust the paging file size.
If I resize the paging file size(ex 200MB?), Doesn't Windows System do any swapping?

Are there side-effects?

My computer -> Properties -> Advanced tab -> "Settings" button in the Performance box -> Advanced tab -> "Change" button in the "Virtual memroy" box -> uncheck the "Automatically manage paging file size for all drives" or similar checkbox -> select the "No paging file" radio button.

I strongly encourage you to research what this does and understand the side-effects. There are some pretty hefty side-effects of doing this and I'm not going to get into those.
