ACTUALLY if you have the page file disabled it causes compatibility problems with apps. Windows is DESIGNED to have a page file. So rather than keeping a page file on disk...create it on a RAMDrive and you keep apps happy and windows happy.

Usually people who want one seem to want it so they can put the pagefile on a ramdisk, which is just silly. Better to explain to them why that's a silly idea then they won't want a ramdisk anymore ;)

Are you talking about being able to create usable ram disks at runtime and use them for general file storage instead of holding the system volume? I don't really see any use for ram disks other than holding the system volume so the media used to boot the system can be removed.
Yes thats the idea. We tend to get requests for one every so often though I don't know what people use them for. There is a example driver with source code on support.microsoft.com that I always point people to.
Thanks Steven
