excuse my ignorance, but what is the advantage of booting from a compact flash, or other small media, I'm assuming boot times? how much faster is it & what are the disadvantages, if any? are there any OTHER advantages? I now have my system wired through an opus & I have a remote start that starts my car as I approach it, or normally it's started & warmed for a little while before I approach it, so I never see anything but a fully booted machine when I enter my car. If I do start while in the car it boots pretty quickly I guess, but obviously the closer to "instant on" you can get, the better. I have never had much sucess with hibernate while stuff is running so I don't play with that anymore...what do you do, have your programs on a seperate hardrive?

One advantage could be you don’t have to worry about a hard head crash with compact flash cards. A laptop drive will reduce it but not eliminate it all together.

Another I think is the temperature changes which effect hard drives, so people in canada have a lot of probs with leaving hard drives in there car in freezing cold conditions.... Flash Cards arent affected in the same way and can resist the cold.

how small did u get it, with these settings?

Good job deskcom. What platform are you using. I see from your drivers its a VIA Eden. Which one?

I've seen lot of people have installes a super small version of win xp and could some one please tell me how to do it with WIN XP home
thanks

errr my bad on the post yesterday i was, sorta like drunked....and i didnt see the "157mb"

I am using a m8000 board. very quick for 800mhz. I made everything run stable first and then elimated a little at a time. It works pretty well . Also as an addon to turbocad6 compact flash ? you can buy solid state hard drives, but they are $$$$
