Hi,
For some reason even if I set the save session setting to 0 in the event manager, puppy still saves the RAM data to disk.
Anyone know why? I'm running off a slow SD card and this really get in the way when I'm playing games ... and it's slow as hell.
Any input or clues would be appreciated!
Can't turn off autosave session feature

Yes, more info would help others to help you, Gennoveus.
Assuming you're running a Frugal Install, try re-installing to the SD Card as a Full Install. I'm running Puppy 421 Retro on an SD Card acting as the HD in an ancient laptop and going to a Full Install fixed the probs you are talking about, plus lets the PC run faster.
When doing the Full Install you have to be VERY PATIENT because it takes quite a while to finish and although nothing appears on the screen for minutes at a time, the Full Install is still happening. You have to let it complete in it's own time, which can be up to one hour on a really old Pentium 2 PC.
