Have you ever wanted to speed up DOOM??? Then try this: If you have enough memory, like 16meg or more, load RAMDRIVE.SYS in your CONFIG.SYS file with the options: device=c:\dos\ramdrive.sys 12288 512 1024 Reboot your computer, and tada, you have a 12 meg disk in memory. Switch to that drive, it should be labeled something like: MS-RAMDRIVE. Copy DOOM onto that drive, but beware, because everything you copy will be erased once you shut the power off, now run DOOM. It is really fast!!! (loading and stuff) Have fun, be careful, and always play Ultra-Violence!! -- "Kill one man you're a murderer. | Doug Marien Kill a million you're a conquerer. | mari...@gold.tc.umn.edu Kill everyone you're a god." -Unknown- | sl...@mermaid.micro.umn.edu ---------------------------------------+ Life's short.
