I got your message in the inbox. I'll try to make a tutorial on Avast again as soon as I can...this time without music so it doesn't get DMCA'ed.

I really can't say right now what the problem is for readyboost. All I did was install the Superfetch service from the R2 Conv GUI, restart, apply readyboost.reg fix, reboot and then it appeared. Nothing really special about it. The only thing I really did was make sure I had Administrator priviledges and then after installing readyboost reg file I inserted USB stick in and it popped up with readyboost tab.

Could autoplay have anything to do with it? I doubt it though.

Start > Control Panel > Hardware > Autoplay

Check "Use Autoplay for all media and devices"

Reboot. Worth a shot if it works, if not, perhaps a reformat would be best if you aint got nothing to lose my friend.

hi !

you got my PM´s ?
hmmm, last time i checked they were still in my outbox...

well, actually i haven´t used the GUI at all, i have done all conversions manually.
i cant use a GUI, i have to live up to my reputation as a world famous hacker...

but when readyboost didn´t work (NO tab), then i made a backup-image with macrium reflect.
i then restored my previous backup (without superfetch), i then tried the GUI + the readyboost reg-file.

but results are the same, no Readyboost-tab under properties....

but i have several backup-images to play with, from both before and after conversion, so i´m going to go back to the oldest backup which is just a fresh installed R2, and try again.

i have 3 O/S in my laptop (W7-64, W7-32, WS2008-R2) so it´s no problem to switch (restore) images....

finally some good news !

i restored an old system-image, used the converter-GUI, imported the readyboost reg-file.
and i got a readyboost-tab under properties !
so there is obviously nothing wrong with those sripts and reg-files....

right now i´m restoring the same image once again, then i´m going to do the superfetch-conversion manually, exactly the same way i did it previously.
it´s going to be VERY intertesting to see what actually happens then ....

i´ll be back...

The Superfetch pack in R2ConvGUI is not really the same one that you can download from this post. We needed to change some settings in it because we noticed that on reboot Superfetch service was not working properly.

Also readyboost.reg file is already applied in R2ConvGUI.

I just thought you may wanted to know this.

The Horsemen

Thanks for pointing that out Neige. I should have pointed out that I was using the 1.0.6 version of R2 Conv GUI as I hate the current one. I think its retarded to run the Conv GUI as an application. It's not something I'm going to be using frequently its a one time deal HAHA...

LOL !

The only reason we got it to an application is to be able to update it like we are doing now with System Restore that you fixed as well as the WMP Plugin for Firefox.

It's just a question of making things easier.....

Oh I see now. Makes perfect sense.

thanks for the info.

yes, i know the readyboost reg-file is already included in the superfetch reg-file.
that was one reason for why i couldn´t understand why i should also run the readyboost reg-file, AFTER the superfetch reg-file.

and i HAVE used the superfetch reg-file from the GUI-converter.

i have now one thing left to test, manually copying all files, and then run the script from the converter (except the file extraction).

the weird thing is that the "LocalNetWorkRestricted"-settings in registry looks exactly the same both when done manually and after running the GUI.
manually i have just added: "SysMain" to that setting.
should something else be entered somewhere ?

anyway, i´ll be back after some more testing...

Normally no.

I am just trying to understand why you would through such pain work to extract files from R2Conv when you just need to run them from there.

I read earlier that you like doing things "manually", but what you are doing now has no sense in my honest opinion. It may be challenging but it also can cause errors.

In anyway if this makes you feel better.

i now have both superfetch AND readyboost working !

and i did it all manually, no GUI & no script...

i found several problems / errors explaning why it didn´t work previously.
i´ll be back tomorrow with more detalied info.
