Do the machines with more than 4GB of pagefile have it in multiple
files, or a single one?
The above article suggests that 32bit windows XP cannot have larger than
4GB, and suggests a workaround of making multiple pagefiles on a single
volume. (multiple pagefiles on different volumes is easily done with
the normal method.)
