I REALLY want to get rid of this stupid Windows Pagefile but I did regedit and enabled the 'disablepagefile' thing and I also set the pagefile ammount to 0, but Im still using 130+MB of Pagefile...what gives? And yes I did reboot.

Windows never get's rid of all the pagefile, it requires a small amount to function properly. What you have is perfectly normal.

Some programs are actually coded to make use of pagefile. Try running something like PhotoShop on a system with 4GB of RAM but no pagefile...

If you disable the pagefile or even set it to low you'll start have issues with Windows and others APPS.
__________________Even with 2 gigs of ram Windows still requires some amount of pagefiling.

Windows if left to set its own pagefile will be 4gb you can only set new Maximum and mim values for the pagefile as you can never fully disable it as windows needs it to function..3RD party programs such as Adobe photoshop need the page file to function properly also
