Default Virtual Memory Page Faults

I'm curious....in Windows XP, is it possible to get some idea of the number of page faults that are happening in memory without using special software/hardware?

Anyone recommend any particular software for analyzing page faults, page file usage, etc?

I ask because I am a student currently learning about Virtual Memory.

I know you can use the task manager to see the total number of processes, threads, etc., page file usage, etc....I just don't know if it is possible to get a count of page faults...

Well, I found it. If anyone is interested:

Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Performance. You many need to "add" the Page Faults/ sec counter to see it.
