How can I get win98se to use the max amount of installed ram instead of using a large swap file?

If you have a large amount of RAM (256MB+) you can set your swap file to a static amount. Right click on "My computer"/properties/performance tab/virtual memory/specify swap file size/ and set the minimum and maximum to the same amount (preferably a low number such as 10MB)

Don't disable the swap file. You can fubar your system doing that. Windows needs for the swapfile to exist to function correctly.

Thankyou for your info. I'm new to this world. Can I type 10MB or do I have to enter the complete number?
