HOWTO Create RAM Disk on Windows Server 2003

qa4eve

Windows Server Gurus,

I want to create a RAM DISK on Windows Server 2003.
I.e. I want to use part of my 2GB available RAM, lets say 512 MB, to create
a disk volume accessed as for example R:\ when the system is up and
running.

This in order to speed up certain temporary file access.
How do I do that?
If only3rd party solution is available please could you point me to an
evaluation downloadable?

Thank you,
QA4Ever
