R.Jennings I was browsing the site TC linked (http://members.aol.com/axcel216/) regarding tweeks and saw this one: UPDATE: "There is a much better RAM Disk out there, called XMS/EMS RAMdisk (freeware), which doesn't shift drive letters. I have 128 MB and I use a RAM disk of 46 MB, which can be extended to up to 2 GB, depending on the installed RAM. This RAMdisk driver works with EMS and XMS. Place the following line in Autoexec.bat: XMSDSK 46080 E: /C1 /T /Y where: 46080 = RAM disk size in KB. E: = desired drive letter. /C1 = cluster size of 512 Bytes. /C2 = 1024, /C4 = 2048 (only doubling works, not 3 or 5). /T = use RAM from top in 1 block (highly recommended for proper operation). You can turn on or off your RAMdisk by simply adding REM in front of the Autoexec.bat line. I load and save the cache files to disk using 2 BAT files. This can also be automated by Netlaunch at the begining and at the end of a dial session. Also, use Netsonic Pro and put the Netsonic cache in RAM to get a browsing speed you never thought of, it's like having a T1." This update courtesy of Sven (backend@gmx.de). Was wondering if you incorporated this tweek and how well it went. ht Mag
