VCACHE Mod for extra RAM
 
Having had one failure of trying to do this, I am taking this stage by stage
this time round.
I modified VCACHE using the edit function in MSCONFIG for the system.ini.
The change worked but when I go back in and read it, just before the
statement MaxFileCache=512000 there is now a graphic like a yellow pencil.
In addition when I read the same entry using SYSEDIT, it reads:-

[vcache]
;Rem TShoot:
MaxFileCache=512000
[Password Lists] etc without any spaces/linefeeds between the two entries.
Is this all OK

A single newline is all you need. The format above is fine.

I don't know what the "yellow pencil" icon is. It would be something
displayed by the editing program you're using. The system.ini file is
plain ASCII text.

Have you tried putting a feed in? It should have one.
You can do it from the system.ini file in c:\windows\system.ini.

Thanks. Put the extra line feed and no apparent problems. Incidentally, I
have noticed duplicate entries in certain other fields, e.g.
msacm.l3acm=C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\L3CODECA.ACM. This appears three times. Is it
safe to remove the other two?
