    Something like RamDisk might work.
    Instead of allocating it for temporary use, allocate and not use?
    I have not tried it though.

    Hey that's a good idea! it'd use a lot of usuable ram to get it to cover the area I need covered, but is better than a constantly crashing laptop! Thanks!

    it worked! (mostly)
    I was able boot and copy my files off without crashing. (or removing the hd and placing in another system.)
    if I try to access the web via wifi, or play multimedia of any type it still crashes.
    must be more than just that memory so i gave up and ordered another board for it.

    THANKS! at least I'm happy all my work is saved!
