Um yes. Here's the prob. I only have 24mb of ram and 'cause of this
Imagine 4.0 for Dos sometimes screws up on large complex objects because
there's no more meory for 'em. And there's no way I can get the cash to
buy more besides becomming a criminal or something. So I was wondering.
Has anyone ever written a program the fools computer programs(any or
certain programs) into believing a that a file on your hd is actually,
say, the extra 100mb of ram that you just "got"? I'm not talking about
windows virtual mem either. This would be a program that is very low
level and works without the other programs actually knowing it, so that
the other programs think that there is more memory than there really is
by making a sort of swap file on the hd. If no one has written such a
prog then is it possible?
