Good news: I upgraded to W7 and Vsuite Ramdisk V 4.3.4127.1603 and created a 1024MB FAT32 SCSI ramdisk using OS Invisible Memory. When I directed W7 to use 768MB for ReadyBoost, the NT Kernel & System task used around 10% CPU for about 60 seconds, all 60 seconds accompagnied by disk activity. Do...

I have created two ramdisks, the first one for the temp and the Firefox temp files. On the other, I put a page file with the initial size of 16MB and a maximum size of 830MB. I disabled the one I had on an HDD. It turned out however that Vista is not using this page file at all under (for me) normal...

Hello, Please let me know when you find the cause of the ReadyBoost problem, I will try again at that time. In the meantime, I will create a 1024MB Direct I/O FAT32 ramdisk, place the temp files there, and also a pagefile.sys. Any comment on that? Would you happen to know how I can tell Vista to use...

Yes, unfortunately.

An additional observation:
Again, with no loaded program doing anything, "System – NT Kernel & System" uses well above 50% of the CPUs.
I stop the ReadyBoost function, and the CPU usage immediately goes to zero.

Hello, Sorry for the misunderstanding, I was looking for "properties" in the Widows Explorer instead of in Vsuite Ramdisk. I did what you requested. Following observations: System just rebooted, nothing running except the task manager and Windows Explorer with My Computer. I go to Properti...

Can you tell me what the "System – NT Kernel & System" task is doing and whether VSuite Ramdisk is calling this task?

Thanks for assuring me that I can use the full 4th GB of main memory for ramdisks and that my Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT does not interfere with that. Don't worry about the size of the B disk. Firefox temp is limited to what I tell it for its browser cache size (96MB), it probably erases the oldest fil...

Hello, did I understand you right that my Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT does not use any "real" memory when memory mapping and that I really have a full 1024MB Invisible memory available for ramdisks? Please reply to this important question. My Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT has 512MB dedicated video m...

Unfortunately, the problem persists as before with this configuration:

Hello, I might have found the origin of the problem. I had thought that none of my devices uses memory mapping in the address space between 3GB and 4GB. Now I found out from the Device Manager that my Nvidia GeForce 8600M GT uses 288MB of memory mapping starting at 3072MB. I therefore can't create a...
