Thank you both for your help. I set the page file to 6GB. I just need to restart the server but when the client lets me do so. I will keep you posted if anything else arises. Thanks again.

I have a win server 2008 box with hyper-v. I run 4 vms and the actual box is just win server with hyper v. I noticed that I have my page file set to let microsoft determine the amount. <br />
<br />
In doing so the c drive in the main sever is almost full since the page file is 16gb. I am going to upgrade the ram on the server to 48gb ram. Does this server need a page file at all ever if I am putting 48gb? If not what is the lowest number I should set it up .

Virtualization is the act of creating a virtual (rather than actual) version of something, including (but not limited to) a virtual computer hardware platform, operating system (OS), storage device, or computer network resources. Virtualization is usually the creation of a system that executes separate from the underlying hardware resources, or the creation of an entire desktop for systems located elsewhere, similar to thin clients.
