I've installed the ramdisk povided on the Support pages as per the
instructions and its all working fine.

But I'd like to get past the 32MB limit by tweeking and recompiling
the source code provided. What do I need to do to get it to compile?
I'm used to VC++ 6.0 (and gcc, etc), which command line tool takes
the makefile and produces the .sys executable?

And has anyone done this before and can save me working out what
to tweek? (I'm assuming I'll need to change it from FAT-16 to
FAT-32)

Is there another group on the MS news server where this query'd be
more appropriate?

TIA

Have installed RAMDISK by both the MS and
http://stud.fh-heilbronn.de/~ogerards/comp/ramdisk.html methods.
(Not at the same time I hasten to add)
In both cases a "disk" appears on Explorer but also in both cases when I try
to access this "disk", W2000 tells me the "disk" is not formatted - Format
now?. It will also not format this RAMDISK (understandably).
Is there any tweak to the inf file or other that I need to apply in order for
the RAMDISK to function?
Thanks in advance
