I know that there are a lot of Win9x users till out there and you can optimize your system memory usage a bit more...<BR> <BR>Click the "Start" button then go to "Run". There type "Sysedit" and press the "Ok" button. Once in there, go to the "System.ini" window and scroll down to "[386enh]".<BR> <BR>Under that header, modify or add these few lines.<BR> <BR>MinTimeSlice=40<BR>This allows for Windows Virtual Machine to run a bit longer<BR>PageBuffers=32<BR>This changes the default buffer size from 4k to 32k and should boost your HDD Thoroughput.<BR>DMABufferSize=64<BR>This basically gives more buffer room to DMA devices to operate.<BR>MaxBPs=65530 <BR>To be totally honest I'm not sure what this switch does, but it gives a bit of a performance gain when benchmarked.<BR><BR>These few tweaks are more for fine tuning and even if you don't notice it, your computer will thank you by running better!<BR> <BR>
