    Your Virtual partition will still use your hard drive no matter what because you have no other disk installed. Just like Daemon tools makes a virtual drive and then you load iso files from your hard drive. So essentially what you can do is see if there is any considerable space left on your hard drive that's unpartitioned and try using it as a partition. Virtual partition would be hard to do and the code for it would probably be found in the different section of this website.

    What is your reasoning behind the idea? What are you trying to accomplish, I am sure there are alternatives.

      i want to stor a files on different pcs on a network (aech pc should have a only a pice of one file (more piceses of difrent files should be stored on one pc) )
      and i want these files to apere on the virtual partition and work just like normal files stored on the local drive.
      so this partition sholud look like a normal hdd with the exception that when windows needs to read or write something from (on) it it should send instuctions to an external program that gets the nesesary data from the network .
      i'm trying to solve allone the problem with storring data on the network and read it with te exernal program.

        Aaa you are trying to use other pcs to host your files for upload, that's nice as long as they are legit, otherwise you will get traced and put behind bars. Hmm well there is no need for virtual partitions, simply share the folders on the hosts and setup a sort of batch file that will pull in data from different hosts and assemble them at your end. Good Luck.

              In the past when there was some kind of DOS this was managed by one line in Config.sys

              Like:

              devicehigh=ramd rive.sys /E 2048

              or simply :

              device=ramdrive .sys

              Yeah of course see if yous have such a file ramdrive.sys in your machine...

              But with earlier versions of Windows it worked like a charm...

              With XP never tested...

                just don't forget to put that in the autoexec.nt and config.nt files for that NTVDM.
