I have 1 gig of ram to use and would like to make a 500mb ramdrive when working with videos....Leroy ..I knew I was an unwanted baby when I saw my bath toys were a toaster and a radio...

cameramonkey 0 #2 January 14, 2003 Is it just me, or is this a repeat, and the original thread deleted? I KNOW I replied to it (along with others) as of late sunday nite. Generally, forget it. My OS, software, and editor chews up over 750mb of ram. add the 1.5gig of raw video file size for a tandem video (7-9 mins), plus the overhead of the preview files and the space needed to recompile the finished video will push your needed ram disk size to over 3gb. IF you still want to try, the software you need is built into windows. do a search for "ramdrive" on support.microsoft.com. Last I knew, what you need is supported natively within windows... no other software needed.Two wrongs don't make a right, however three lefts DO!

I've never seen this in windows, even did a search on support.microsoft.com, and didn't see anything. _Am__ You put the fun in "funnel" - craichead.

indyz 1 #5 January 14, 2003 Microsoft has the source to a ramdrive driver available somewhere on their site. It is extremely alpha and for educational purposes only. That hasn't stopped people from compiling and distributing it, though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
