    It is a SanDisk 256MB I was using. When you say you are running from PCMCIA ATA card, does that mean you boot from something else? Normally PC does not boot off PCMCIA, isn't it?

    I have done this before as well but my compact flash dies after some months. I heard it is due to frequent write to boot sectors and other system areas by Windows 98. Can anyone confirm this?

    Checked this lite PC website. Seems their solution requires both Windows 98 and Windows 95 license or perhaps neither as seems they will be modifying Windows 98 dlls. Also to make it really small, they charge something like $6,000 NRE for the work. Seems this TinyWin 98 company is offering more flexibility to the system integrators. I wondered what kind of performance will you gain to boot from a 32 bit RAMDisk...
