ReadyBoost-use flas drive(pen drive)as RAM in vista

Now most of us are using windows vista.It has many awesome features-one of them is "READY BOOST". Most of us even do not know about  this feature.By this feature u can speed up your system by adding some virtual memory to your RAM(physical memory).So let's have a look about it - READY BOOST..............Lipak



Windows ReadyBoost can use storage space on some removable media devices, such as USB flash drives(such as PENDRIVE), to speed up your computer. When you insert a device with this capability, the AutoPlay dialog will offer you the option to speed up your system using Windows ReadyBoost. 

If you select this option, you can then choose how much memory to use for this purpose. and this memory will be added as virtual physical memory(RAM).By this u will be able to speed up your system.

U can also open ReadyBoost option by right click on the flash drive in "my computer".Then go to properties.there u can go to ReadyBoost tab.allocate memory for that and and u will incrase your physical memory as long as pen drive is inserted in the computer.

U can feel this if u are running high end application like game or any multimedia work which requires more physical memory(RAM)But u will not be able to use those allocated memory any more untill u deallocate it.For ready boost u require atleast 235 MB free memory.

However, there are some situations where you may not be able to use all of the memory on your storage device to speed up your computer.Also it may depends upon the bad sectors and condition of the pendrive.So lets use and feel this highend feature to enhance the performance of your system...............Lipak
