It is now common to use Vista and XP to form a dual system, so that when you encounter compatibility problems under Vista, you can also go to XP to run. After installing the dual system, the space of the hard disk is much less and less, because the space required by the Vista system is very large. In fact, we can share some resources of the system, that is, the two operating systems use the same resource, so that Save a lot of space, and you can also install a lot less software.
Shared virtual memory
Microsoft's operating system has a huge "Pagefile.sys" file, which is a virtual memory file, which is available in the root of the system partition. In fact, we share a virtual memory file when using Windows Vista and XP dual system, which can reduce the space occupied by the system.

Then select “C drive”, then select “system management size", click “set” button, so you can set Vista virtual memory to the Windows XP installation partition.
At the end, we clicked the "Define" button in the "Virtual Memory" window, and a prompt window will pop up, indicating that the C drive already exists. Pagefile.sys”, whether to replace, click “ is ” The button is fine.
Shared Favorites
When surfing the Internet, everyone is used to adding commonly used URLs to favorites, but the location of the two operating systems is not the same, it is very inconvenient to use, in fact, we also You can let the dual system share a single favorite.
