Hi everyone,
i have a friend that his computer runs on a quite slow hard drive. The celeron-500 on his machine is enough running DivX movies. The problem is that when he runs a playback program(any player including WMP and MicroDVD), in order to watch a movie, some physical and some virtual memory is allocated to that program.There's the problem now. Since his hard drive is slow, it cannot keep up with a a smooth playback, unless he turns the process priority of the player to real time!
I was wondering if there is any way that you can tell a program in win2k to run ONLY in physical memory, thus ignoring VM and hence the H/D.
Any suggestions are much appreciated.Thanks for reading.
