Hello Riow, and welcome to Vista Forums.
I do not believe that you can since Vista will automatically use whichever page file it determines to be less busy and faster to use at the time.

My D drive run very faster than C drive. Will Vista know it, and keep using D: rather C: until D: is not enough? Where can I know about this? Thanks!

It depends on what drive is in use, how much it is in use vs the other one, and which one Vista determines out of all this would be faster for which page file it will use.
Since D is faster, then you might consider only having the page file on D: to see how it runs to avoid using the slower C: at all.

Oh well, however the D drive is not big enough, and that's why I need to create two page files and wish to control the page file usage priority.
