I can't believe that this actually solved this problem.
After reviewing Microsoft's "help" files concerning this
issue, I had almost given up until I actually tried this
solution.

It worked. No more problems.

My problems started when I reinstalled XP Home in order
to "reload" the internal driver database due to issues
with USB devices. The reinstall worked as expected (for
the USB issues) but gave me the Pagefile complication,
which I thought was linked to permissions and account
configurations.

Just goes to show... anything is worth trying when you're
at your wits end!!!
