I had RamDoubler 2 installed on my Centris and PowerMac desktops and it ran just fine on OS 8, I recall. You'll run into trouble when/if you upgrade to OS 9, though; you'll need to upgrade RamDoubler to a higher version. > Secondly, would it be better to use RamDoubler2 to set the memory > allocation to 48mb, or better to set the Virtual Memory Control Panel > to 48 mb? If you turn on VM, RamDoubler won't install during the power up; the VM settings will override RamDoubler. -- A woman without a man is like a cicada without a loudspeaker. -- PowerBooks is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
