• Flash drive, write protected after the use of Ready Boost

  I have a 8 GB USB flash drive, and I've been using ~ 4 GB for Ready Boost for quite a while now. When I tried to write something on the drive recently, I get a message saying that it is write protected. I tried to change the size of the cache, but has nothing - no error and no change. Tried turning off RB for the drive and nothing. There is no protection switch on the drive, so nothing to break. Tried to restart, refomratting the drive - no joy.

• does not seem ready boost to add any speed

  I use a 8GB of memory installed well augmented ready card but I didn't notice any 'helping hand '.

  How much RAM does the computer have?

  Ready Boost is designed to help computers will be a small amount of RAM, so if your computer has already 3 GB of RAM or more, you don't notice much of a difference.

  2. what exactly happens when you try to delete it?

• Ready Boost

  Recently I plugged a USB 1 GB in a 32 bit Vista Premium system of House who has a memory of 1 GB installed.  Ready boost offered to use 870 MB of this stick, and when I tried to increse said it might slow down the system.  My question, which is a function of the size of stick or something else.  If I used a 2 GB or more big stick he uses more of it or still do not want to use the 870 MB?  Thank you

• I have questions about Ready Boost.

  It seems that I should be able to expand my RAM, with a USB key. When I try to activate it, I said it is already in use and can not use it on this USB key. The laptop is used, then maybe the old user installed on the hard disk. How can I be sure, he is not corrupt, or simply delete it, so I can install it on my own disk?

  After that I have submitted ^ that ^, I went back to the USB and tried to start over. Unplug the unit and plug it back and get the options box should and went to "speed up my computer" (or similar words). When I got the tabs for "Ready Boost" box, I started to look at the different tabs. I saw one for the description of the disc, and it looked as if it was completely empty. Ok. I saw an option to test compatibility; I ran the test. Ok. I saw an option to completely erase the disk. I think that might have been the key I was looking for; part of the 'available' space was not the case. So, I did a wipe and got 100% disk space, all available for this purpose. Now, I should be able to get what I want. If this does not work, I'll be back.

• How to use Ready Boost, and what are the requirements for the use of portable hard drives and flash drives for use with Ready Boost?

  I have Windows 7 64 bit Ultimate Edition and try to get Ready Boost to work on my PC using portable hard drives or flash drives. I have 2 portable hard drives (iomega 120gig, Seagate 250gig) and a 8gig sandisk cruzer flash drive. All this deterioration when you try to use the ready boost said that these discs only are not compatible or not supported. So what do I need?

  Not all readers will work with ReadyBoost. There are some readers who actually will specify that they are capable of ReadyBoost.

  By WikiPedia:

  • The device should have an access time of 1ms or less.
  • The device must be capable of 2.5 MB/s for 4 KB random read speeds indicates the spread uniformly across the entire device and 1.75 MB/s write for 512 speed random writes spread uniformly across the device.

  You must also put the device and let it plugged in for ReadyBoost. ReadyBoost is therefore best suited for a small thumbdrive (up to 4 GB) that greater thumbdrive or external HD that you would probably be disconnect from time to time.

  Open solutions Explorer window, find your Cruzer - right-click on it and click Properties. If there is a ReadyBoost tab, you can set up - set it to dedicate this device to ReadyBoost. It will be implemented and save a file on the USB key. Click Apply and're you good to go.

  A caveat which I can testify first-hand. Apparently while booting, Win 7 has trouble with some USB key - it will search the thumbdrive, the operating system, the process of starting to stall and you say: ' Missing Operating System ' - Fortunately the solution is very easy. Shut down the computer, remove the USB key, restart the computer and it will start normally. I had this happen with a 8 GB Cruzer. This seems to be a random thing, because I had the Cruzer plugged in and booted several times without encountering the error of missing operating system message. No idea why or why it is injury. Currently, I use a Kodak USB 2 gig key that seems to work very well.
