- These programs allow you to use part of the TPA as a ram disk.
- The ram disk is addressed as drive D:. The size is set by the
- version of the program you use. The number in the MEMxx.COM
- file name indicates the size in kilobytes of the ram disk.
-
- These programs work with most every program I've tried -- I'm
- writing this documentation on a ram disk with my favorite word
- processor. But there are a few things you should know:
-
- They won't work with other high-ram utilities like RSX's
- or key-definition programs; they'd be competing for the
- same memory addresses.
-
- You can't load one ram disk while another is active. Does
- wierd stuff...
-
- You have to cold-boot to remove a ram disk. REMEBER TO
- COPY YOUR FILES OFF FIRST!
-
-
- To use the ram disk as a different drive than D:, use your
- favorite de-bugger to patch these bytes:
-
-
- ADDR: Is: Change to:
-
- 0208 "D" desired drive letter.
- 0235 "D" desired drive letter.
- 0356 03H number of desired drive (00h=A, 01h=B, etc.)
-
-
- I have no idea who wrote these programs; my sole contribution
- is documenting the patches to change the drive specification.
