I am
using 98 now but will be moving to XT later this year.
<FONT face=Arial color=#008080
size=4>
TL
: first i would suggest considering going earlier to XP (and PRO
not the Home version,
or
else goto W2K) (i suppose XT was a mistype).
<FONT face=Arial color=#008080
size=4> i am using W2K
now for 1 1/2 year now very intensively daily : it is a world of
difference
<FONT face=Arial color=#008080
size=4> between W98 and W2K
(which i use both, although i am using W98 less and less)
<FONT face=Arial color=#008080
size=4>
<FONT face=Arial color=#008080

<FONT face=Arial color=#008080
size=4> I am not sure if MetaStock is slow in real time from the disk
writing or from the Security and Prev functions. The first would make a RAM
disk worthwhile, the second would not.
<FONT face=Arial color=#008080
size=4>
TL
: what i suppose is the disk writing (security and prev are a function
of the software execution imho)
<FONT face=Arial color=#008080
size=4> i am using a RAM disk
in W2K (not for your realtime purpose but it is
quick!)
<FONT face=Arial color=#008080
size=4>
<FONT face=Arial color=#008080
size=4> Did a search for W98
Ramdisk , suppose it is there somewhere but XP-pro with Ramdisk
would solve a lot of
your speed
problems (if other things like processor and HD capacity etc are
ok).

Good
Luck

<SPAN
class=390130217-12042002>I find that with MS Pro 7.22 and eSignal that MS
runs very slowly and has a hard time keeping up. eSignal, on the other
hand, is handling more data with no speed problems. I suspect that the MS
problem is due to the very slow speed of writing to the hard
drive.
