Is there a free RAM DISK driver for Windows XP or 2003

Hi Gang, Is there a fee RAM Disk driver for Windows XP? I saw a commercial program here from Cenatek, but surely there must be a free or open source alternative? Thanks, Christian Blackburn

Hi Gang,
 
This is advice regarding the use of a RAM Drive:

Quote:Using the RAM Disk Setup the Windows TEMP Directory to the RAM Disk:
 
1. Create a Batch File with the following content:
set TEMP=T:
set TMP=T:
 
2.Put this Batch File into the Startup Folder of Windows.

 
first off you could just put this in your autoexec.bat and make sure your system is configured to parse your autoexec.bat using TweakUI. Second you shouldn't set your temp directory to your RAM drive, that'll cause all sorts of problems when you reboot and the files are lost. Does that RAM driver save the files there were in the RAM drive on shutdown and restore them on startup? Does APK's, well Alec? .
 
Cheers,
Christian Blackburn
