Re: NT4 and TS2K?

[Ullrich Fischer <uf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I set up a 2GB C: drive and a G: drive of  5.6 GB drive on an "8" GB EIDE 
drive.  I put my paging file on the G: drive.  It seems to be working fine 
now.  I also have a slower hard drive (used to be my only drive when it was 
C:) as D: drive (1.3 GB) and a CD-ROM drive as E:   All the drives (except 
the CD-ROM, of course :)  are NTFS. -uf
