View 6 Replies View RelatedSuperfetch Service Terminated
Jul 28, 2011I bought a new computer about 7 months ago and it ran very well. I was extremely happy with it. Especially how quickly it would boot up. I eventually noticed, however, that the start up of my pc was getting extremely slow. I opened the event viewer and noticed that at the time of my computers startup, the superfetch service wouldnt be able to start. It said: The Superfetch service terminated with the following error: The system cannot find the file specified. After doing quite a bit of research, i ran a hdd integrity test through the command prompt, emptied the prefetch cache. and even upgraded and re-installed the operating system. The service superfetch still fails to start. Occasionally, it did however start after i emptied the prefetch cache and my computer instantly, started up very fast. Like new again. But the next time i booted up my pc, it failed to start again. I want the service to be reliable and start every time.

Jan 1, 2012Superfetch will not start. Says can't find file. One member had an answer about an IO program causing a hiding of a file so that was the reason. I would like to know what that IO program was so I can delete it and see if it works for me.

Jan 8, 2012The flyer that came with this month's PCA included a tip to utilise a blank USB flash drive for virtual memory. When I go to Properties/ReadyBoost on the USB drive, it says "This device cannot be used by ReadyBoost"Then it says "ReadyBoost is not enabled because the service responsible for ReadyBoost (Sysmain) has been turned off on this computer. An administrator can turn the Sysmain service back on"When I searched, including Microsoft website, there is no recognition of the term Sysmain.

View 9 Replies View RelatedReadyboost Vs Pagefile Vs RAM
Aug 2, 2009I'm running Windows 7 x64 with a Quad Core and 4GB of RAM. I've enabled Readyboost on two USB devices of 2GB each I had laying around: a SanDisk Cruzer Micro, random read speed is 5341 KB/sec, random write speed is 3068 KB/sec. And a Kingston FCR-HS219, random read speed is 3412 KB/sec, random write speed is 3739 KB/sec. Not much, but should suffice to give it a try.
While booting, I saw and improvement. But the thing is I have my computer on 24/7 so I don't care that much about boot time. And I don't see a lot of activity of these devices once is turned on. Specially over the pendrive.
Is it because I have > 2GB RAM? Or is it because they are too small?
Would I benefit if I create a pagefile over one of these devices instead of Readyboost?
How can I "measure" this?
Is there a guide regarding Readyboost and USB devices?
ReadyBoost Not Recognizing More Than 2GB
Oct 29, 2011I have a new Notebook, an LG X140, with Windows 7 Home Premium ... activated as Genuine.It only came with 512 MB of RAM so I decided to use ReadyBoost and a 4 GB USB Drive to add more RAM.I selected "Dedicate this device to ReadyBoost" which selected 3851 MB. It only actually created an extra 2 GB of RAM. I believe I understand why there was only 3851 MB available and why it only could create 2 GB of RAM from that. so that isn't so much of an issue for me.I then used a 1 GB SD Chip which is ReadyBoost Compatible and added that to ReadyBoost the same way, hoping that I could push it to 4 GB of RAM ... however my computer still only shows 2 GB of RAM. I have tried swapping different USB Drives and SD Cards but with no success, I can't seem to get my computer to recognize any more than 2 GB of RAM.
View 9 Replies View RelatedMemory Vs ReadyBoost
Nov 4, 2009I know memory can help save some battery life since it decreases the load on your CPU, and I know Readyboost acts like memory, but I also know USB drives can drain your battery. So my question is, would Readyboost help with battery life or drain it since its a USB?
Aka when I'm running off battery and I want the battery to last as long as possible, should I plug in my USB to use Readyboost or just keep it out?

View 0 Replies View Related32bit/64bit? ReadyBoost Or More RAM
Jul 14, 2009I have been running build 7260 for awhile on my Asus notebook (see system spec) and so far have not had too many issues with it. Since I have done several succesive upgrades: Vista Business > Windows 7 build 7227 > Windows 7 build 7260 I have noticed some bugs creeping in (apps and games are crashing periodically or not loading correctly, gaming performance could be better). I attribute this to the string of successive upgrades.
I am going to wipe the drive and do a clean install of either the 32 or 64 bit RTM build in the next few days as it becomes available. One of the main goals is to increase performance with both applications and games. I use this laptop for work doing web development and heavy photoshop and graphics intensive work. I typically have many applications open at once using quite allot of system resources.
For this project I am going to:
A: Add another 2gb of ram to bring the total from 3gb to 4gb, or
B: Add a fast 16gb sd card to the system for the ReadyBoost feature, probably using around 6 to 9gb for this feature
For me to add the extra gig of ram it becomes more necessary to install the 64 bit build. If I use the 16gb sd card for ReadBoost, I can probably stick with 32 bit. None of my apps are currently 64 bit anyhow so I am not sure 64bit is the way to go right now.
I would like to hear people's thoughts on this and what others experiences have been especially using ReadyBoost on systems with over 2gb of memory..
Readyboost - How High Can You Go On 1 Flash?
Jan 7, 2010I just came upon the concept of using readyboost with my computer since I usually run quite a few programs in the background while I'm gaming. I know it wont help much but just a little increase in performance is better than nothing.
I was just curious how much memory can be used on 1 flash drive?
I just bought a 16 GB Sandisk from Best Buy and when I used Readyboost with it the cap was 4 GB. I wasn't sure if the drive I bought wasn't designed to go higher or my USB port couldnt handle it. Then I wondered if the file format the drive was in was capping it so I can confused and thinking of buying a better one possibly designed for the readyboost.

Readyboost Is NOT Virtual RAM From A Flash Drive
Jan 15, 2013Readyboost is NOT virtual RAM from a flash drive.Readyboost is NOT RAM at all.Readyboost is a cache used by your hard drive.Basically it copies stuff you normally use to the speedy Readyboost cache, where it can be used faster.Readyboost give an all round performance boost, and is more noticeable with older, slower hard drives. The more you have, and the faster it is means more boost.Readyboost yields the most with small file browsing, boot up time, windows operations, and some programs you use.I have 20GB of readyboost, I got that instead of upgrading my HDD to a SSD or hybrid.

I am running Windows 7 on a Macbook Pro with 8GB of RAM and the Virtual Windows machine really slows everything down globally. I have tried configuring the Windows VR with 2GB, 1.5GB and 1GB of RAM. Configuring the virtual machine with more than 2GB of RAM really slows down the Mac. Hoping that ReadyBoost might improve things.

Jan 16, 2012I have a new 8 GB memory stick and it passed the readyboost test - initially. But I wanted to dedicate the device to readyboost so I reformatted to NTFS (was FAT32 initially) and now all I can get is "This device cannot be used with Readyboost". I have tried a command line test that gives me a read speed of 4.8 MB/S which according to the specs I have seen is fast enough for Readyboost.
