Why would you want to put the pagefile into RAM? This would seem to defeat the entire point of virtual memory.
Well I would just turn the page file off except that Photoshop gets all pissed off about it. The reason that I want my page file in the ram is cuz I have a shitload of ram and i don't see any reason why my system should need to page at all. The problem is that windows writes **** to the page file way before you even get close to running out of ram. Well i don't use all the ram I have so I was thinkin make a 50 meg ram disk and slap the pagefile in there. The problem is that ram disk nt seems to be only partially compatible with win xp. The drive that I set up doesn't show up in explorer but I can put my pagefile in it. The thing is if I put the pagefile in this semi existent drive win xp fails to boot which kind of sucks.
