Hi everyone.....I have Vista Home Premium x64 and am running 8 Gigs of
Ram. Will using ReadyBoost have any noticeable increase in performance?
If so, how much should I use? Would a Flash Drive be good enough for
that amount? Thanks......Michael:geek:

You are wasting your time if you use Readyboost with your specs.
It was designed for Systems that only had 512MBs to 1024MBs RAM.
Once you get above 2-3G, no noticeable improvement.

I agree with Mick. It won't help at all.

NEVER install a beta piece of software of any type on a production machine.
You are only asking for trouble.

If you want to know the truth: You have no clue how to work Vista so it
seems like beta to you. Everything you do is ****ed up. No wonder why you
bash Vista day after day.

No - YOU are asking for trouble by installing Vista. Since you don't have
the brains to use it, Vista is hard.
