Hi Myles, I think the problem is with the software.  I installed mine 
only a short time ago and was in such a hurry to see how much of a 
difference this card would make over my Apple Hi Speed SCSI, that I 
neglected to read all the docs first.  On page 9 regarding installing 
the software, it explains how to remove that icon (which until removed 
is recognized as a partition).  Simply boot up the computer, run the 
RamFAST Utility program, click on the OPTIONS command (this is assuming 
of coarse that you already INSTALLED the software), click on the <yes> 
beside 'RomDISK' and it should change to <no>.  Then 'QUIT' and you will 
be placed back at the desktop with the RamFAST icon replaced by your 
hard drive partition.

If you don't have the manual, and/or are still having troubles with it, 
let me know.

Regards,
         Rob.
