Did you really move it, or did you just create another one? Windows'  
pagefile options are per-drive; setting up a page file on a second drive  
does not remove any that already exist. If you want to get rid of  
C:\pagefile.sys, you must explicitly disable the page file on drive C.  
Keep in mind though that some features -- like BSOD crash dumps -- require  
at least a small page file on the system drive in order to work.
