All I can say is when installing a new XP system, after completing the CD based part of it (OS plus service packs) and board drivers, I normally set the swap page to zero and reboot to allow me to defrag the system partition prior to finalizing the swap page allocations. Don't believe I've ever had a complaint from XP. No experience with 2000.
