Well actually I am going to have to call you out on this one. "no such facility in Windows Xp" is not true, because I literally just increased my virtual memory (page file) by 2GB on XP using a flash drive. How do you ask? It is actually pretty simple (relatively speaking). You first have to (obviously) free up all your space on your flash drive, then make your flash drive properties to allow complete file sharing. Then go to control panel, system, advanaced, 'Performance' Settings, Advanced, 'Virtual Memory' Change. Once your there, click the C: drive option and then click the bubble that says, 'No Page File'. Then go to what ever you have named your flash drive, drive option then click the bubble 'Custom Size' and make your initial and maximum memory size as big as your flash drive is (e.g. 2Gb = 2024MB, or whatever). So now, you have, potentially, a ton of new Virtual Memory possible…but the only thing that is really limiting, it the USB bus speed, but given that, it would still be faster than using the allocated Hard Disk virtual memory. Voi la!

This is my first time complementing on ReviewSaurus~ Anyway I was wandering I just bought a 2GB Kingston DataTraveler 400USB Drive With ReadyBoost from Futureshop. I used it for documents before, I wander if I clear up everything in the USB, will it still function properly and as fast as it said it can with ReadyBoost technology?

i just found this on another cite, its a little program that allows you to do what vista does, but it just interfaces with windows, and it only works on xp, chk it out http://rds.yahoo.com/_ylt=A0oGkm1wrntJkPIAaC9XNyo...
copy the link, im just tryin it out, so dont hate me if you dont like it,
and —– it only works for the first 4 hours after you boot up your computer,
but the 4 hours resets every time you turn it off, so try it. = )
