- After having some hard disk problems, I rformatted my hard drive
- and now am reloading evrything again!!!
-
- My question: SInce i installed windows on a pretty fresh drive,
- it suggested a Permanent Swapfle of 16 megs!!! I said ok, but
- now notice some hard drive spinning and mouse slow-down, which
- i never had before when i only had a 2 meg swapfile.
-
- My computer: 386sx 16mhz, 4 megs ram, DOs 5.0, win 3.1.
- Any help would be greatly appreciated! (Email would be great too)
-
- Gary.
