Hi! no way guys,i've tryed what you told me (control panel + performance + virtual mem ...) but it's impossible to change the path to another drive. Billz rules says that you can only select hard drives...no ramdrives at all.It's possible to make windows or the OS recognize a ramdrive as if it were a hard disk? ...just wondering BTW,in my huge 257 megs hard disk there's only 2 megs free..could be this dangerous? thanks for the help & regards, Luis lcampoar8 at far.ub.edu http://www.angelfire.com/tx2/lcabpp ------> not yet ready! gimme ideas!

There is a way to make windows use a ramdrive but i dont remember how(been a few months..i dont have 64m ram anymore)...yes having only 2 meg free is bad..you need about 75 megs free for windows...i like to keep 250 free.
