Vista Readyboost

#1 Post by aboveliquidice » Mon Sep 10, 2007 10:04 am

For those people w/ Vista loaded on their X41 (tablet or reg) - are you utilizing readyboost??? I just purchased a San disk 2gb Ulta II sd card - and I am wondering if using the built in SD slot will work for readyboost?

Any thoughts?

Oops, I should have reply to your post, but anyway, you can see my post on readyboost if you want, otherwise the short reply is try the Sandisk Extreme III 2Gb SD card because there is a post on another forum confirms it works.

After finding the registry hack online Here:

http://www.windowsvistamagazine.com/US/ ... puter.html

I went ahead and dropped the settings for readyboost - followed the instructions (but using the sd instead of the USB) - everything worked great.

*** the big part - after putting the settings back to what they were before I hacked the registry - my SD card is still readyboost functioning.

The biggest difference I have seen - when loading a webpage forum with hundreds of post - I can scroll up and down w/o any stalling. I definitely could not do this before ready boost - it would pause every few seconds, the HD activity light would blink, and then it would continue - very annoying.

I am really liking my experience thus far - and when you combine vista with office 07 (one note) - its magic.
