(OS dependant) I need a TSR device driver that will present itself as a harddrive to the OS when it's installed. Must work on winxp and dos. This also needs a way to talk to an ide harddrive, either plugged into the mobo or on a pci card. AND/OR (OS independant, preferable) I need a device to plug into the IDE cable as if it were a harddrive, but be a device totally under my control <hideous cackle>, which would present itself to the OS or bios as a normal harddrive, but into which i can plug standard motherboard memory simm/sip/modules of the ddr(x) variety to be the "platters" of the harddrive. Why? It's a secret, sorry. No, i cannot use a regular ramdrive for this. No, i do not wish to use flash memory. No, i do not wish to use flash cards, usb, etc.. Yes, i know this thing will forget everything when power is removed. Kat
