Hi!
To make it short, I want to be able to allocate some of my ram as a drive BEFORE windows 7 boots and of course somehow actually boot windows 7.
I have:
- SSD with win7 x64 (AHCI)
- HDD
- USB stick
- 8 GB ram.
I want (example): boot with whatever media and whatever OS with which I can make a drive E: which is a 2GB ramdrive from my actual 8GB RAM and AFTER that is done, somehow boot windows 7 from the SSD - where it is installed. And obviously I want windows 7 to recognize the drive. Data loss on the ram drive between restarts is not important.
I know it's possible, I'm just not sure how.
Please do not recommend me any alternatives, and don't question my motives, this is what I wish to accomplish and would appreciate any and all help along the way!
Thanks.
