RAMDRIVE.SYS--Examples

To create a RAM drive in extended memory and allocate 64K (the
default amount) of extended memory to RAMDRIVE.SYS, add the
following line to your CONFIG.SYS file:

device=c:\C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\ramdrive.sys /e

This command loads RAMDRIVE.SYS from the C:\C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND
directory.

Suppose you want to install RAMDRIVE.SYS in expanded memory and
allocate 4 MB (4096K) of expanded memory to the RAM drive. To do
this and to specify that RAMDRIVE.SYS is located in the
C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND directory on drive C, add the following line to
your CONFIG.SYS file:
device=c:\C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\ramdrive.sys 4096 /a

Suppose you want to allocate 2048K of extended memory to
RAMDRIVE.SYS and create a RAM drive that has 512-byte sectors and a
limit of 1024 entries in its root directory. To do this and to
specify that RAMDRIVE.SYS is located in the DEVICES directory on
drive D, add the following line to your CONFIG.SYS file:
device=d:\devices\ramdrive.sys 2048 512 1024 /e
___________end quote___________________________

Note:  /a is expanded memory   /e  is Extended.

A Ram Drive will take the drive letter of your last HD plus one.
This ups the CDrom letter by one. e.g D: to E:  etc.

Remember, all information in  the Ram drive is lost when you
re-boot. Copy what you need to the HD before shutting down or
re-starting.

You might start out with this in the config.sys file:
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\HIMEM.SYS
DEVICE=C:\WINDOWS\EMM386.EXE AUTO
DOS=HIGH,UMB
device=C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\ramdrive.sys 20480 /e

That should provide a 20 mb ram drive in Extended memory.

Let us know how it works out.
