simple applescript help needed

Hello all:

I'm new to using applescript. I need to write a simple script for an old Powerbook duo running os 8. I need at startup for the finder to copy a folder to my ramdisk. I tried to have the script editor learn the drag and drop of copying the file to the ramdisk and then saved the script and put it in my startup items, but it didn't work. when the computer starts up it asks if I want to run the script, but then nothing happens. The ramdisk is still empty.

Any ideas for a real newbie?
