Does anyone know how to make a RAM disk similar to the MacOS? I would love to rum my PC laptop at night running SETI, but it is too noisy with the hard drive never spinning down.

No idea on the PC RAMdisk, but congratulations on your existing high output. If you are the "stephend" from the Team rankings that I am thinking of, you have already burned me and about 300 other people. No hard feelings. 
Pour it on, we need more power!

Thank you. I am that stephend. I have 10 macs and 10 PCs going right now.
and I would love to leave my PC laptop at night crunching, if I can get this RAM disk solved, or some other way to keep my hard disk spun down.

for anyone that cares, have tried the 2 methods suggested by our OCN friends. I did not get satisfactory results from the built-in RAMDRIVE.SYS. But the shareware RAMDRIVE98 solution works well, and performs just like I expected (mostly like my macs have for years ; )).
