[QUOTE="NickName, post: 67864, member: 21675"] Wow!!! Thanks for the info on 'junction points'! I knew linux\unix had symbolic links but never knew you could do the same under Windows. Sadly the MS page you mentioned is for Windows 2000 only BUT I have found a freeware tool that does the same thing on XP! [url]http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/Junction.html[/url] I just tried it and it worked sweet for mounting folders on other folders. Note: The folder must be empty before mounting and unmounting it, deleted the empty folder. That's not really an issue as recreating an already empty folder is easy. I'll make a VBscript to use this utility and to create a RAM drive on the fly at the bootup. So it looks like I can try this without changing Mediaportal (hopefully). Wish me luck guys. I'll write it tomorrow-ish night and test it so it should be ready by the weekend if anyone is interested, though I'm guessing by the votes, some are. :lol: I'll post back here with bad or hopefully good news in a few days.
