Intel Turbo Memory Problem

Ok I'm having a small problem and was hoping someone could shed some light or help me solve it.

I hav 2 gigs of this Robson memory and the drivers don't seem to be working or something.

I was setting up my m860tu and decided to try and use this new memory last. So I opened the dashboard and tried pinning some programs. It was moving suuuper slowly so I decided to see if updating the drivers would fix that. Big mistake... it erased the dashboard!

I found this great fix:
"For example, I would enter this if the driver was downloaded to the desktop:

C:\Users\Username\Desktop\invm_enu.exe -UP"
(from http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=289951)

And it worked except for windows readyboost was now DISabled. I said screw it, lets pin some stuff anyways. Well I started pinning, and then I tried to pin the **** dashboard so it would load quicker and then it crashed and I couldn't reopen it. If I tried it would just run another instance of the program in my task manager and wouldn't open the application.

So finally I just erased all the drivers and am now sitting here with nothing installed for the Turbo mem.

Anyone have any ideas? Should I just reinstall those same drivers again and hope the dashboard will open up?

 

This taken direct from Intel:

"Intel® Turbo Memory Technology Cards
Designed for easy integration into systems, the PCIe* full-minicard and
half-mini interface card are available in 2 GB and 4 GB capacities. The
PCIe card features: one Intel® Flash Cache Logic chip, two Intel® NAND
Flash memory chips in parallel, and supports Microsoft Windows Vista*
ReadyDrive* and ReadyBoost* technologies for the 2 GB card. The
2 GB card, with a one-time OEM configurable option, can substitute
ReadyBoost for “User Pinning”; while, the 4 GB card supports
ReadyDrive and User Pinning only."

To me, this sounds like the 2GB card is like DVD region settings, pick your selection once ad live with it. For me, I have no user pinning and I am not able to find it anywhere, I assume my reseller didn't choose that option.

I am going to call them and see...

 

That's interesting.. if thats true than it appears that those of us with 2 Gb of turbo mem have to choose between userpinning and readyboost? but our OEM already chose it for us?

that might make sense, as it looks like if I have userpinning available(with that -UP command) my readyboost is disabled.

 

I already had a thread on this topic, unfortuneatly they didn't sticky it. Hopefully somebody will this time since there seem to be a number of people affected (If not everybody) by this Turbo Memory software glitch.

I'm going to try this right now...

 

I had to do something special to get userpinning on 2gb module. I posted it in a different thread. It should explain all.

This worked but when trying to drag things, the mouse is choppy.
Ideas?
