i read a month or so ago in pc magazine of a program called "ramdisk xp". basically what it does is create a virtual drive from your ram.. so per se you had 3 gigs of ram, you could allocate 2 gigs as a virtual drive.. which you could capture video to .. without any fears of your harddrive's slowness causing dropped frames, meaning you could also capture at a higher bitrate... has anyone tried this? i only have 256mb of ram on this system, but i'm building a new one soon, and am defienetly considering starting off with a 1gb ramdus ram module, and adding 2 more when i can afford it...

nothing in stone.. just a thought...
