While I appreciate your commiseration, actually I have never needed a RAM booster before with my W98se (since Dec'99). The only instance where it seems necessary is running Fritz7 for long periods in infinite analysis mode, particularly when Fritz7 is constantly accessing tablebases. In that situation the free physical RAM falls to zero, and stays there -- unless I do something such as use a RAM booster utility. I could ignore it. The system does not always crash when memory falls to zero. But it becomes sluggish, and it does freeze up occasionally -- so the RAM booster will hopefully be an improvement on system stability. WP
