Shyte mon if you use Windows 98, 98SE, 95, 3.1 (or lesser) you can do it easy! Windows will complain but works dandy. You go into DOS and in the err umm... been a while... umm config.sys you partition off some RAM and assign it a dirve name...  :crazy:  :crazy:  Ok my memory is hsoddy but it's very much in there... Windows Xp otoh does not support it so easy...

The DOS setting had no limit IIRc I had 8/16MB for a while set on it in Windows 3.1... of course, you have to be able to do some math since it isn't in megabytes ;)

I have 128 Megabytes on my system... running on the desktop Windows claims about 40 Megabytes are left 'free'. I may not like windows but some people are really annoying about what they act like Xp needs.  :-x   :-x   :-x
