Boost Windows XP performance with a USB flash drive.
Are you running XP on your near to dead PC because Vista just won’t run in it? And are you also thinking of reverting from XP to 98 to gain some stability in performance? Now you don’t have to worry about performance if you have a flash drive because you can get performance boost with eBoostrâ„¢, which is like Vista’s ReadyBoost® technology, enabling you to reduce Start-up and application loading time by caching files to flash drive.
With eBoostrâ„¢:
- You don’t have to buy additional RAM to speed up your PC because flash-drive or any additional storage drive will work as an alternate of this.
- You just have to plug-in your flash drive in any computer you are working with after installing eBoostrâ„¢
- You can open your favorite apps and programs that you use frequently {like browser, email client, photoshop etc.} much faster as compared to occasional ones.
- You can run more applications at once on your laptop. Usually, laptop disk access time is slow and hence takes time to load applications.
- You can set up to 4 devices for smart caching simultaneously. Put flash drive, additional hard disks, removable media or any other medium for caching that will boost your PC performance for sure {Use the things that you already have instead of buying a new RAM}.
It is a shareware but doesn’t have a traditional 30 days limit. Instead it would run 4 hours on every system boot and then you would have to reboot the system to reuse it.
System requirements:
- Windows XP {Both 32 and 64 bit}, Windows 2000, Windows 2003
- USB 2.0 port or any memory card reader
- Flash drive or any other compatible device with minimum 2.5 MBps random read speed{Don’t worry, new devices are faster than this speed}

whoa! cool.. i think this is the best way toi speed for the people who are using SDR Rams
I beta tested this and it’s good if you have a really small amount of system RAM and XP, but the improvements are really minimal. Buying additional RAM is a much better way to improve the system.
I don’t see how this can do any good for you.
Readyboost is a joke. I my flash drives once to see if i could find any that wrote faster or even read faster then my hard drive. None of them did. In fact i noticed that my HD was almost 10 times faster. So unless u have a VERY high end flash drive you aren’t going to see any boost in performance. i agree with scott on this one. buying additional ram is WAY better (and actually can give considerable boost to performance as 1 gig sticks of 6400 RAM are 30$ now)
Cool article. I’m going to try this.
cool find yaar…i have a old pc where i will try this..stumbled…
