ReadyBoost

Hi All,

I tried Alex's suggestion to change the registry and had no clue what

figures to change when I reached "Local.......EMDmgmt" point. At this point

8 folder open - 5 starting with _??_FlashMedia...... and 3 starting with

_??_USBSTOR..... eg. follows:

_??_FlashMedia#MemoryStickDevice0#5&20ade69e&0&002H-b6bf-11d0-94-00a0c91efb8b}-0

_??_FlashMedia................

..

..

..

_??_USBSTORE#Disk&Ven&Prod_USB_DISK_20x&REV_PMAP#074B12D2C0B38&0#{53f56307-b6bf-11d0-94f2-00a0c91efb8b}PrivateData-3907613553

_??_USBSTORE..................

_??_..........

On clicking one of the above the following on the right hand box is diaplayed:

ab (Default) REG_SZ (value not set)

CacheSizeInMB REG_DWORD 0x00000000 (0)

CacheStatus REG_DWORD 0x00000000 (2)

DeviceStatus REG_DWORD 0x00000000 (2)

DoRetestDevice REG_DWORD 0x00000000 (6)

LastTestedTime REG_QWORD .................

PhysicalDeviceSizeMB REG_DWORD 0x00000ed(237)

ReadSpeedKBS REG_DWORD 0x00000b18(2840)

RecommendedCacheSize REG_DWORD 0x00300000(3745728) USBVersion

REG_DWORD 0x00300000

WriteSpeedKBS REG_DWORD 0x000007b4(1972)

Something like the above is displayed...I have no idea what figures to change.

Thanks for your reply/s.

Original Question below:

Hi Folks,

I have a sandisk M2 8gb memory card with an adapter for the card reader. I

use

the memory card/stick in my sony mobile phone.

Now, I tried to use the 8gb M2 card with the adapter in my sony laptop's

card reader to "Speed Up My System", incidentally my laptop has 2gb RAM. But,

Windows-VISTA's ReadyBoost response was: "The Card Does Not Have The

Correct Speed" and cannot be used!

I was told that the memory card should "USUALLY" be the same as the

laptop's ram memory.

So, is it the incpmpatibility of the amount of memory i.e. 8gb:2gb, or is

it that M2 card is not fast enough to be used as extra memory boost?

Many thanks for your reply/s.

Regards,

SM
