According to this site http://ask-leo.com/what_is_pagefilesys_and_can_i_move_it.html you could allocate your pagefile tu a thumb drive, but it is not wise to do so, because of the USB speed. The same reasoning would apply to using it as a RAM drive.
The page gives instructions on how to assign a different pagefile.sys in W7. The instructions are identical in XP. Serenella Ciongoli On Tue, 27 Nov 2012, Jeffrey Race wrote:
