Never, read my lips, NEVER put Windows temp files in a Ram Disk  !!!  What 
if it gets full in the middle of (for eg.) a Corel redraw ???  As happened 
to me today when I tried to prove this to someone, supremo crash !!!

Try using a 2Mb cache, and use HyperDisk for the caching program... Let me 
know if you want a copy of the latest one....  It's great !!
