and i have two computers one running xp, and another running jaunty. either way, nothing seems to be working. tried a fresh flash of os2008 again and now it at least see's how much space is available (to extend virtual memory) like if i have only 71MB free on my internal card it shows that the max i can use is 64. However I still am unable to create/resize virtual memory. maybe i actually have some slightly screwed up hardware?
