1. swap file & ramdrive

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

2. Re: swap file & ramdrive

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.
