If you have the Paging File on the hard drive that will happen. Especially if you have the Paging File size option set as a dynamic instead of static.

If you have System Restore activated the drive will change size also.

I have found it best to put the Paging File on a separate internal hard drive. Windows likes it better that way, much faster response and less fragmentation of the C drive too.
