Has anyone tweaked the IOPageLockLimit setting?

"The Default is When IOPageLockLimit =0 is 512 KB" - from Microsoft

Doing a google search I found many recommendations for increasing the
IOPageLockLimit but they ALL included a table of values that gave a smaller
value than the default.

At their suggestion I tried 40000 HEX (262KB ) it worked for a while, then
Outlook and IExplorer started to have intermittent errors.

I reset the values and IE and Outlook began operating correctly again.


Respectfully,
Richard

I just discovered I had RAM faults. Changing the IOPageLockLimit changed
RAM usage and that is why I may have been getting errors.

Sorry about jumping gun.
