ReadyBoost and 64-bit Windows Vista Ultimate

I have a desktop Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit.  This desktop system has 8 GB of RAM.

I have also a spare room jump drive (this one): http://store.lexar.com/?category=23&subcategory=36&productid=JDP4GB-431

Two questions: with 8 GB of RAM, ReadyBoost will improve performance?  8 GB of RAM or RAM that ReadyBoost will have no appreciable effect?

Secondarily, even if this USB is 4 GB, ReadyBoost is offering only the capacity of 2200 MB (2.2 GB) for this drive - this notwithstanding the reader is completely empty of other data.  ReadyBoost should not be able to take advantage of almost the full 4 GB of RAM offers this USB?

Thanks in advance!

Hey readyboost is really for pc with less than 2 GB of ram. As readyboost was created to eliminate the use of copy turbo boost (you can get laptops lenovo in computers)... with that said you actually have lots of memory and even nearby go using that much used to the average PC user. Only if you're a gamer in HD really intensive 3D, or you go crazy with photo devlopment will you begin to use more memory.

in the truth and does most of the PC to run on 3-4 GB of ram. (4 the average user)
to be honest, I have 8 GB in my HP d5200t ATX (custom) and the only time I need more ram is when I do the scans in the background while burning blueray movies and play call of duty 4 (really good game).
So with 8 GB of ram, readyboost won't make a noticeable performance increase it might even slow it down according to your jump drives read and write speed.
I hope this helps.

    I bought Win Vista Ultimate 32-Bit for my old computer, but now I have a new computer / 64-bit opportunity that I need to format. 32 - Bit WinVista works on the 64-bit computer?

    Well Yes, it will be. However, whatever you have devices NEED 64-bit drivers. Otherwise, they will not work. They will not work with 32-bit drivers.

    But you'll have to install on the hard disks or separate partitions.

  • 26 of Firefox crashes out of Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit.

    No matter if I click on the red X, go to file-> exit or press Alt + F4 to exit Firefox under Windows Vista Ultimate 32 - bit. It almost always produces an error message that Firefox has stopped working.

    I can't find how to post a JPEG Screenshot of the error here.

    This will not occur under Windows XP Pro.

    Otherwise, the browser works fine in a BONE.

    Those are the two reports of the crash on Adobe Flash Player.

    You can check for problems with the latest version of the Flash plugin and try these:

    • disable an eventual extension of the browser for Firefox Plugin RealPlayer Record and if installed RealPlayer update
    • Disable protected mode in the plugin Flash (Flash 11.3 + on Windows Vista and later versions)
    • turn off hardware acceleration in the Flash plugin

    Hello

    I recently had a few frequent freezes on Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit Edition, I think it's maybe the video card (ATI HD2600 mobility). I have already downloaded and installed the latest drivers from the Toshiba site, but it continues to, sometimes, when I'm playing games, the screen blinks for 5 seconds or more and then would become black, completely erased, but the background sound and everything still works well and I am able to shut down the PC by pressing the power button once and then restart it normally.

    It's a minor problem, the major problem is the freezing point, it freezes completely without warning, but oddly enough, he freeze by practicing a game! But freezes on normal operations (internet, office, etc.). I did the tests, tests of HARD drive memory, all in good health, and worse, on the Windows Event Viewer could not detect any problem, simply says 'unexpected system shutdown.

    I'd appreciate help please.

    Thank you

    Hi I do not know if this will help, but you've got service pack 1 installed on your laptop, as when I installed it on my desktop the first time it caused blue screen errors and gave me a lot of problems, including the error messages that seemed to come with applications, I opened and a boring IQRL driver equal or less than but could not work why and then ultimately , I had so many problems that I had to completely reformat my office and I removed my scanner XP and webcam (both had vista drivers) and when I reinstalled service pack 1, it was beautiful, if by any chance do you have anything attached to your XP laptop and vista drivers as these seemed to be what was causing my errors.

    Also a question about your graphic card drivers, I have the same laptop as you and was looking for updates to the graphics driver and couldn't find them anywhere on the site, where did you find yours? I use Vista Home Premium 32 bit, my model number is A200-28 p (PSAE6) and I would like to know if there is a new graphics card driver but can not find on the basis of knowledge, so the fact you have updated your would be could you point a new user in the right direction :-)

    Thank you

  • Can I do a clean install of Windows 7 Pro 64 bit on Vista Ultimate 32-bit upgrade. Installation file will not work. The error is described below.

    The XPS 730 with Intel Q9450 computer yourself running Windows 7 64 bit? The details of performance show that it is capable of 64-bit. When I try to install Windows 7 pro 64-bit upgrade, the installer will not work. I get an error that reads:
    The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows that you are running.

    I'm currently running Vista Ultimate 32 bit. Everything that I read on Microsoft and elsewhere says that you can go from Vista 32 bit to an operating system Windows 7 64-bit as long as you do the clean install. I'm that far away since I can't even run the installation.
    Maybe nobody knows what could be the problem?

    Hi Hal K,

    Thank you for visiting Microsoft Answers.

    If you are currently running a 32-bit version of Windows, you can only perform an upgrade to another 32-bit version of Windows. Similarly, if you run a 64-bit version of Windows, you can perform an upgrade to another 64-bit Windows version.

    If you want to move from a 32-bit version of Windows to a 64-bit version of Windows, and vice versa, you will need to back up your files and then perform a custom of the version of Windows you want to install installation.

    Microsoft sells more than Vista.

    You will have to take a chance and buy a DVD / a license on Amazon, eBay, etc.

  • How can I activate speech recognition on my Windows Vista Ultimate 32 bit? There is no advanced speech Options to configure.

    I tried to activate speech recognition on my computer (Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit) but I can not because when I open the Control Panel, speech recognition options, I see on the upper left corner "text to speech" and under the "see also": "ease of access"and"Audio devices".

    Speech recognition does not either with the English language or Greek as the operating system is in Greek.

    Lasr first question:
    > microsoft has stated that they do more and its impossible is true?
    Yes, Microsoft is manufacturing and sale of Windows 7. No more Vista.

    RE: 64-bit disc.
    > I spent $ 400 on this disc in windows vista ultimate and the 32 bit disc, I got damaged and I still have the 64-bit.

    At least that I was wrong all this time, I don't see why you can't install your Ultimate 64-bit.
    You must do a clean install, because you install a 64-bit on a 32-bit computer.
    Your product key, however, is the same as your 32-bit.

  • Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit goes to a black screen after login. Completely insensitive.

    I seem to have a problem similar but different enough to justify a new thread. I am running Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit, and after the connection, I get a black screen with a cursor that can move normally. However, it becomes more complicated as everyone else. Absolutely NO work of access keys at this point, ctrl-shift-esc, ctrl-alt-delete, windows-r, don't SHIFT five times, NOTHING that other threads have suggested. I can't do anything but restart the computer once it reaches that point.

    This is where it gets weird. Regular Safe Mode actually works for me, but is not the Mode safe mode with networking. There has been absolutely no sign of difficulty with this computer before that. I already have Malwarebyte Anti-Malware, it has been updated yesterday. I checked for ntndis in the registry, nothing. I uninstalled my video drivers, now, I have to reinstall because it wasn't the problem. System Restore was only a restore point on March 1, which did nothing even though the computer was working fine, March 1. I do not have the Windows disc, I split the cost with a friend who's in Arizona that I know, and he has probably lost the drive now.

    Please help, my office is useless like this. I'm on a laptop, and I have a 512 MB USB key, if something needs to be downloaded on the desktop.

  • How to start VDS in Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit?

    I have a problem, and it's been a while and still not solved...

    I have Windows Vista Ultimate 64-bit right now and I want to upgrade to Windows 7, but installation is NOT going through perhaps because of the virtual disk service.

    How to START the virtual disk service? Everytime I try through services, I get an error 3: the system cannot find the path specified.

    Please tell me HOW to start the virtual disk service. and please do NOT move this thread on the forum windows 7, I posted in the front Vista section and moved to the region of Win 7, where my problem has not been resolved. Please leave it in this section. Thank you.

    Ok. The file is in the right place. The registry is missing the path to
    the file. Wonder how that happens - sigh?
     
    Type Regedit in the search box of the start menu.
     
    Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\services\vds
     
    Right-click on an empty area in the right pane - choose new - extensible
    String value. Name ImagePath (F2 key renames it). Double-click
    ImagePath and assign
    %SystemRoot%\System32\vds.exe
     
    Now you can start the service?
