Is it wise to move Windows 7 pagefile.sys to RAMDisk With RamDisk Plus & 10GB of RAM

[Alfons]

The use of the Windows 7 operating system is the best and I have just installed it as I was using the Windows XP operating system and it is not so functional as that of the Windows 7. I have been using the file of pagefile.sys and this is the system file that is used for the proper functioning of the system. So the main thing that is being done by me is that I have converted the file of the pagefile.sys to RAMDisk and for doing that I have made the use of RamDisk plus and 10GB RAM. But I just wanted to know that the set-up that is being done by me is wise and is it good or not. Please help me out with this.

At the start you have to learn how to page file in the RAM disk that you are using:

1. At the start you have just Right-click on the option of the "My Computer" and then you have to click on the option of the "Properties".
2. After that you have to click on the option of the "Advanced" tab option.
3. After that you can just click the option of the "Settings" button and then in the option of the "Performance" box.
4. After that you have to click to the option of the "Advanced" tab in the "Performance Options" and then use the dialog window.

And also it is that you can just check out the option of the RAM and just see that how it is working out for you.

And if still the above steps is not working out for you then it is that just take the following steps that are just given below:

1. And also then you have to click the option of the "Change" button in the "Virtual Memory" box.
2. And also it is that you can just go to the option of the "Virtual Memory" in the dialog window.
3. And also you can just select the option of the "RamDisk".
4. Then you can just select the option of the "Custom size:" radio button.
5. Then it is that you have to set the initial size and greatest size to be just a little lesser than the size of the RAM disk.
6. After that you have to select the drive that can be currently used for the paging file.
7. And also you got to select the option of the "No paging file" with the option of the radio button.
8. And then you have to click "OK".
9. After that you can just restart the computer for the new settings and then see that what is going to happen.

See that the above steps are just for the setting of the system files.

And also the you can just check out the free RAM that can used which should be of 6.5 GB. And also the working of the Windows can be only with the use of the 3.5 GB. And the remaining of the RAM can t is seen in by the Windows operating system. And also the overhead is said to be the windows that can be able to see with the RAM usage and it can be known that which can be used for the RAMdisk. And also it can be used for the stick that can be used for the Windows 7, and also see that how it will work out with the 64 bit which can be seen to be compatible which can be use for the software that can be used for the Windows 7 operating system.

Windows 7 is said to be compatible with about anything, plus it can run on Windows XP so if you have the correct version. As for RAM using the RAM drive for something useful, not the pagefile. You can just move your applications or games or something, instead of the paging file. Make a 6GB RAM disk and it seems the time to put a static page file to 1 GB in it, get rid of any paging file that exists on a physical drive (the SSD if that is your intention), and run even some Portable versions of the application of a RAM disk. From ramdisk Plus can even reflect the contents of the RAM disk to a file on your hard disk, you can install applications directly to the RAM and hard between restarts in the same state - just as they would if they were installed in physical communication.

Just try to make a 6GB RAMdisk and then you have to make everything point temporary to it, then just put a 1GB static pagefile in it, and obtain a clear view of any of the page file that exists on the physical drive, and after that you can even run some of the portable versions of apps which can be done by the use of RAMdisk. And since the RamDisk Plus can be even in the mirror the content on the RAMdisk to a file which will be on the hard drive, then you can in fact just install the real apps straight to the RAMdisk and they will be existing out between the reboots in the same state. And they are being installed just as if they would be installed to physical media in it. And the bigger difference is the speed boosts which are being accessing the apps or the data: a RAMdisk is also a way faster than any of the physical media and considerably faster and than any of the SSD on the market.
