Anyone who has done a Win98 / Win98SE install has seen Ramdrive in use. My question is how can I do that myself? I'd love to learn how to do it.
I run with 768 meg of memory, so that should be do-able. I'd like to place some files there that if destroyed by shutdown, will not really hurt me. Perhaps point Internet Explorer there for Cashe.
