If you are having difficulty installing or updating your ESET product's virus signature database on a WYSE-embedded Window's XP terminal, increasing the size of the temporary data storage allocation will likely fix the issue. To do so, follow the steps below:

  1. Ramdisk is allocated to 16MB by default. Try setting the Ramdisk to 32 MB or higher. Click here for step-by-step instructions on changing Ramdisk settings from a WYSE terminal.
     
  2. Retest on the workstation to verify that the problem is resolved.
