    I recently was given a computer that has a ms-ram drive. It shows a microchip instead of a hard drive icon in "MY Computer". It has a 2 MB drive space but will not allow any copying to be done to it. This computer was used as a server. Anyone knows about this type of drive? :rolleyes:

    A ram drive is a drive that is stored in the ram, but can be used just like a regular drive. I haven't seen a ram drive since the days of dos. You should be able to delete this with out any problems.
