Sorry for the audio/video being so crappy, recorded it from this netbook.

How to use a USB thumbdrive (flashdrive) as virtual memory to help boost system performance.

  • Will it add up my current the ram? For example, if i got 1 gb ram and i add 8gb to it.. will it make 9gb of ram??

  • @tingwenjiat Unfortunately no, but the system will do some things on the backend that will help manage your RAM usage. If you already have 8GB of ram, I wouldn't mess with ReadyBoost, you probably won't notice any difference. Windows does an awesome job managing memory already, especially when you have 8GB to play with (thats what I have on my current system).

  • HI Mr  can readyboost help for play game?

  • @ferdaws2000 I would say yes, a little. Read through the comments below, I know a lot of people have said they weren't able to play some maps, etc until they used this method.

  • I did this with my netbook recently. With some slimming tactics(getting rid of all the crap Asus put on my netbook, limiting processes that launch at startup, etc), and adding a 2GB SD card for readyboost, it definitely helped. It started out a sluggish on the net, and flat out slow running scans. Now it is a pretty impressive little computer.

  • @Drev222 Awesome!

  • @willyGMS Your USB flash drive probably isn't able to use it... try different USB drives.

  • @arielxarg Ah sorry, I took all my netbooks back to the stores where I bought them... ended up using the money for something else...lol

  • @carbonseven1st Yupp, it was recording from the netbook - poor quality - check out my latest video, I did another readyboost video.
