Peter, I really don't like the idea of saving the image file a shutdown every time, not because of length of shutdown and bootup but because you never really know what you're saving particularly if things went somewhat wrong at some point during the session. So to avoid saving the image, and to avoid possible problems I could create a batch file that would save the xxdata folder to the HD at shutdown and copy it back to ramdisk after start up. What else should I copy to and fro that might cause problems if I didn't?

Chris

Things went wrong here too, saving a corrupted image, afterall loosing all data, but you can make a back-up of that image, smart thing to do anyway.
If all settles in well, then these problems wont occur that much.

I dont really see the problem of this. When you use xxhe on a normal HD the stuff is there when you reboot. Now you can do that with the ramdisk too.

There's not really a big problem, but possibly a few annoying ones I'd like to avoid.

1. Reconstructing the Ramdisk because of corruption issues; according to some things I've read that's a fairly common occurrence. (I know I can back it up, but then why not just do the batch file thing I mentioned. Also unless I back it up regularly the point is moot not to mention that it'll take more time than the batch file effort).

2. Ramdisk space is limited; I don't want to save things to it inadvertently. I want it to be exactly the way I set it up to be, plus only the changes that I really need/desire. With the ramdisk I have the potential for complete control. Why give it up somewhat by saving the disk image at some arbitrary unwatched time? I can always save it manually exactly when I want to.

3. Constantly saving the basic same thing at shutdown is just asking for eventual corruption and the consequent need for a new ramdisk and program setup. I for one get very impatient with having to set things up again and again--looking for all the licenses and files and instructions blah blah.

Chris, you are not correct. Sorry. Telstar said it all.
Luckily this at last is about normal computing, and not about voodoo audio stuff. It works. If not, you have something (VERY) wrong in the first place.

Additionally, this doesn't take time at shutdown (hardly). It does significantly at bootup though (30 secs as I see it).

But as I said, go ahead if you feel it is good for you. As long as others don't listen to it, it's really ok.

Peter, How can you say I'm not correct? It's not a matter of correct. What I do know is that the things I mentioned do happen. And it's about computing, as you have to know corruption happens far to often. It's computing that is why it happens, not voodoo where what happens is much more interesting.

It just so happens that a few moments ago XX left one of its big Unicodetracks (400 mb) in the directory after the XX had been exited from, this would have been saved as part of the IMG file. No big deal perhaps but a large chunk of a small amount of Ram.

And I have nothing wrong with my system (finally) since I installed the Ramdisk . I've had almost no glitches and none of the continuous problems I had until very recently.

I think I've figured out which files I need to copy back and forth between the ramdisk and the hd, so that I don't need to save the IMG at shutdown, so no need to answer my query.

Besides just telling me I'm wrong and it's a bad idea, you might consider telling me why. I think it's a good idea, and just telling me it's not, is not very constructive and a bit arrogant.

Then dont select the autosave on shutdown. Save it manually, but when you will forget to do it, dont complain to us.

Ok Chris. Then you are correct.


PS: What do you think that happens otherwise with that 400MB Unicode track eh ?

Thinking that's a good idea while I say it's not, is destructive to yoursef and a lot ignorant.

Please. This is not the tone I have come to admire. I actually can see benefits starting from a clean sheet each time and that is also what I did - until my soundcard gave up on me a day ago.... "surt show" as we say in Danish.

Sleep well and don't let any disagrements or harsh words come between you.

Love you all.

Finally got home and listened to xx/vista/RAMdisk. Wow, so much more refined, less harsh. SFS's significantly  reduced. Gotta thank Peter's SSD for frying and sending him back to Vista and Marcin, damn, wonderful collaboration. Am trying to take Roy's advice and go slow, but Nick's tweaks sure look interesting too. All in all its a little dizzying in "here" at the moment. Unbelievably cool.... Cool

How about putting a Virtual Machine on RamDisk and putting Vista and XXHE in the VM?
Even allows to make more VM's for testing and comparisons!

I thought about that Gerard, but there's no way that will work good. I tried it earlier. Just the VM doesn't. Like Marcin says ... way too slow.
