Random pop-up at boot time "Cannot format drive x:"   14 July 2014, 01:23

w7-64bit, 12gb RAm, 3TB HDD and 120gB SSD (boot +w7 runtimes) powerful desk top. Asus m5a99x-evo

It is just random, and is false. The single ram disk is there and is working perfectly. It is not preloaded, only an empty cache folder.

And props are set as harddisk emulation, wipe memory on dismount. (my guess is this is useless, as DRAM goes random power off)

My guess is an start up timing error.

Will my firefox 31 work with HDD emulation off?
It's set to X: cache now.
Maybe I'll try fat32 to see if that helps.

All else works perfectly, just this "cry wolf" thing on 1 in 5 boots or so.

Thanks for great product. Love it!

Just turn off the HDD emulation. It won't make any difference for FireFox and it will be mounted much faster.
