    Hello there all,

    I received my 1gb intel turbo memory addon for my xps m1330 and i succesfully installed all the drivers for it. The only problem i have now is the ready boost option doesnt stay on.

    I check it in the console, restart and when i go back its unchecked.
    BUT
    Windows ReadyDrive is CHECKED and stays checked.


    Whats the problem here?

    I'm running windows vista ultimate 64 bit with sp1.

    If any other info is needed i will post it the next time i check the thread.

    Thanks in advance.

    how do you conclude that ready boost is not on. i havent seen any specific indication of readyboost being switched on specifically (of course i havent used a turbo memory before. i have only used USB flash drive)

    There is a turbo memory console and there is ready drive and ready boost

    Nevermind, went to sleep late night yesterday, woke up today and see that ready boost is enabled.
