    In the RAM disk, you should have, A.the ARCed file, B. Dcopy.  Run Dcopy
and "X"tract files, enter the ARC name, and when Asked for the destination
Enter Drive A as the Destination.  Makes sense huh??  If you can't fit
Dcopy into the RAM disk just simply change the Source path to D:.
ex.  Source: D:\DALEKS.ARC
     Destination: A

    P.S. once Dcopy has loaded up you may erase, it from the menu, because it
no longer needs to access the disk.  That is if you need that extra bit of disk
space.  Also, get DC Formatter, or something.
