Has anyone tried this? It shortens your boottime but does it also increase your performance?

hiks ... WIn XP is not supported :grum:

You should know that depending on how the Ramdisk is installed this will add time to your boot up process. As much as 3 minutes give or take, but for most it could be shorter.

The Ramdisk program we will use is from Microsoft and can be downloaded from here
MS Ramdisk for NT5 or Windows 2000. Not WinXP.
Make sure to download it now to your machine.

WE DONT NESSASARLY SUPPORT THIS WITH WINDOWS XP
