    Symbolic link across drives?


    I am new to Windows 7 and new to using symlinks. Please bear with me.

    I am trying to make a hard link to a file on a RAM disk, but I get the error

    "The system cannot move the file to a different disk drive."

    I can't make a directory link to the RAM disk because I cannot fit all the files in the original directory on the RAM disk. I need to make a couple links file-to-file.

    I am trying to use the command

    mklink /h lichking.mpq j:\lichking0.mpq

    like that. I would be very grateful if someone can come up with a solution to this problem!

    Is the RAM disk on j: ?
    Is the RAM disk marked as read-only?
