Trying to CHANGE the Pagefile size through a Perl WMI script. I can update the registry settings with WMI StdRegProv, but would prefer to use the "WMI object" directly. Anyone see the problem or have code for updating ANY WMI object similar to this? Thanks... 
use strict; 
use warnings;
use Win32::OLE qw(in with);
use Win32::OLE::Variant;

my $server= '.' ; # "vsin0vw148.svr.us.jpmchase.net";
my $wmiService = Win32::OLE->GetObject("winmgmts:\\\\$server\\root\\CI
+MV2");
if (!$wmiService) {
    print "... WMI connection failed! \n";
}
my $PageFiles = $wmiService->ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_PageFileSe
+tting");

for (in($PageFiles)) {
#     $_->{InitialSize} = 300;
#     $_->{MaximumSize} = 330;
#    $_->LetProperty('InitialSize', 300);
#    $_->LetProperty('MaximumSize', 330);
    $_->LetProperty(InitialSize => 300);
    $_->LetProperty(MaximumSize => 330);
    $_->SetInfo();
    $_->Put();
    last;           # just change 1st one
}

exit 0;

Commented lines in the "for" passed the compiler but didn't make any changes (as far as I can see in the Registry or System control panel.) Anyone have any ideas or similar code which sets ANYTHING using Perl OLE WMI??? Thnaks
