ReadyBoost Technology in Windows XP SP3

Want to speed up your computer without upgrading your RAM? Microsoft ReadyBoost technology in Windows Vista has the ability to boost your system by utilizing any type of flash memory from SD card to USB Thumbdrive. I was hoping that Windows XP service Pack 3 comes with ReadyBoost technology but I doubt that is going to happen.

ReadyBoost is a great technology when you’re low on RAM, especially when you’re into graphics, multimedia and gaming, it is not as responsive as a RAM but good enough to increase responsiveness and performance to a certain level.

Fear not, eBoostr is here to save the day. eBoostr offers such an easy and relatively cheap solution to the problem of insufficient RAM, that you will have absolutely no need to buy additional memory. All you need to boost your computer performance: is plug in a flash drive, choose it as a device to speed up your computer and set the amount of the memory space to be used.

Highlights

  • Vista’s ReadyBoost benefits on your Windows XP® machine;
  • Smart caches frequently used applications and files for maximum performance speed up;
  • Supports both USB and non-USB removable media devices, as well as additional hard disks;
  • Allows up to 4 devices for simultaneous smart caching;
  • Cache file size of up to 4GB on each device;
  • Compatible with all ReadyBoost® ready devices.

eBoosts 1.1 is such a great application, for a person that is into graphic designing and still stuck in Windows XP, I would say eBoost 1.1 is a good investment, it is just 29 dollars. Don’t go on google for Cracks, Serial or Keygen, it is not worth it, support the author.

Another option besides eBoostr is to reconfigure your Windows Pagefile system, right click on ‘my computer’ properties and the proceed to change your default Pagefile system drive from C: to the one assigned by Windows for your computer, it can be E: or F: depending on the numbers of storage drives you installed in your system.

Mozilla Firefox Patch mozila 3 patch upgrade download

According to research, Mozilla Firefox is the best open source browser in the market, but fact is Mozilla Firefox 2 is the worst browser ever in the market.

One of the problem faced by Mozila Firefox is the memory leak issue, initially I was skeptic and thought that this could be a PC problem, or some bias review from the Microsoft camp, much to my surprise, it wasn’t a bias review and the rumors for once turned out to be true. Mozilla Firefox indeed has a memory leak issue, try loading 10 website simultaneously, yes, it lacks so badly - that is the memory leak bug found in all version 2 browser.

Good news for Firefox 2 user, the up and coming Mozilla Firefox 3 manage to solve the memory leak issue, currently in beta, Mozilla Firefox 3 is available for download at the official website. With the memory leak issue, mozilla firefox is still gaining market share - it could be that nobody notice the memory leak bug, how many net user actually launch 10 new websites simultaneously?

Flock, an open source browser based on the Mozilla engine was able to solve the memory leak issue. If you’re a firefox fan and reluctant to switch camp, try some other alternative browser such as Safari from Apple and Opera Browser.

Talking about Opera browser, the browser is believed to be the fastest, at least according to experts, I am not entirely convinced that this is the case. One of the reason for me to doubt the super fast loading speed of Opera is the way it render and cache website. I believe Opera display images and text after loading the page to about 80% whereas IE, Safari and Firefox display the images and text as they load. More of an illusion of speed. After all, with broadband widely available through out the nation, even in a third world country, speed is no longer the selling point. Security is.

Interested in knowing more about Firefox? Read up the history and background of Mozilla Firefox in Wikipedia. I was astonished to know that it was called Phoenix, follow by Firebird and eventually Firefox.
