Hi Jim,

I also had an Amiga, and I also installed a RAM drive on my PC, and I also
use Win98.. I browsed the net and found the only program that will work.. I
think.. It's a small freeware program that activates from Dos.. Here:

Of course this will reduce your available RAM for other purposes. Complete
instructions are in the read me file (and please read it) but it's not so
complicated.. Here is a line I added to autoexec.bat :

c:\progra~1\ramdrive\xmsdsk 25600 J: /t

25600 is the size of disk.. But beware - and this is quite important! - that
I assigned "J" as my RAM-drive letter, because I already have used A, C, D,
E, F, G, H, I to harddisks etc.. But you probably shouldn't do that. You
should use the letter that comes next to *your* last used drive.. Otherwise,
your Windows will freak out and it's difficult to make it run normally ever
again.. Apart from that, I found no problems with the program.

Regards,
Hugo
