if you remove the paging file from the boot partition, Windows cannot create a dump file (Memory.dmp) in which to write debugging information in the event that a kernel mode Stop Error message occurs. This could lead to extended downtime if you must debug to troubleshoot the Stop error message.

The major disadvantage of removing the paging file from the partition is that Windows will no longer be able to make a dump file. This function is important should a user encounter particular errors.

Nothing immediately, but without a paging file slowdowns are likely to occur.
