I have been really happy with both Ramdoubler and SpeedDoubler for several years. There are upgrades for RamDoubler to work with Mac OS 9 on the manufacturer's website. Have you opened the Ramdoubler control panel and set your ram to the maximum (256mb). ? The application also has a utility to hold the system heap, whatever that means and to hide background applications. It works like the memory control panel.
SpeedDoubler did nothing for "speed" on my system, but wow do I miss it since I'm now using 9.1!! I used it to back up (copy) important financial files on my hard drive (it did this automatically when you set the application's preferences). I also use Conflict Catcher which I know many of you do not like, but this program helps me keep track of what I have on the computer and I can open control panels and extensions from within the CC program Good luck. nan > > When I bought my 3000/160 , it had "RamDoubler 8 " and >> "SpeedDoudler 8" installed in it. >> I've tried both and I don't see any real improvement . > > Shouldn't I ? -- StarMax is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... / Buy books, CDs, videos, and more from Amazon.com \ / <http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect-home/lowendmac> \ Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> StarMax list info: <http://lowendmac.com/lists/starmax.html> Send list messages to: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/starmax%40mail.maclaunch.com/> Using a Macintosh?
