    Just recently switched over to windows 8. Just wondering if anyone has used google chrome in widows 8 mode and if I can cache it to ram like in windows 7?
    So far whenever I try to use it in windows 8 mode it won't cache to the ramdisk I created. Any help is appreciated!

    What steps did you take in 7 to have it cached? Not sure if Microsoft changed the way 8 utilizes available memory from the way Vista and 7 cached available memory.
