Meanwhile I understood why I had superfetch off. The Intel SSD Toolbax just run(auto) and suggested me to have superfetch off in an Intel ssd disk.

I use to have a pagefile 512MB in my both systems.U say that its better to zero it. I ll think about it

I have a joystick for MAME, 2-axis, 8-button.

It has 8 directions, is there any way to be only 4 directions(up-down-left-right)?

Well, I have an SSD of 160GB and a USB stick always connected.

Why not set in the stick the pagefile(2 or 4GB)? Are you sure this is gratuitous?

A post in this thread after 20 days?:

Well, I didnt understand much of your post

Meanwhile, lately I get a msg about "the Windows Rundll32 stopped" which is annoying because if u r in the middle of a game it takes u out.
Do u know how to get rid of this msg?

yes, it took 17 hours on mine too, but we would have never found those problems anywhere else.

But, as I said, this task solved nothing to me.

Superfetch was disabled (I heard that in ssd is useless, so Win7 turn it automatically off?)

I enable it and tried to start it but told me that 'windows cannot start superfetch in local system, error No2, cannot find the file...'
(?)

Wont hurt to try it and as long as you have 4GB or more you can turn the page file off. I have no system hangs at all, windows simply keeps it all in ram instead.

But go ahead and try ready boost. But if you have another hard drive it is better to put the page file on it since it will be faster than a usb drive.

Well, there is no other hard drive. There's an external, but not always connected.
The USB stick is always connected, keeps the uncompleted torrent files. So why not put there the pagefile.

Your system never hangs maybe because u have a good cpu and a good vga(forgot to say that my card is Sapphire HD 6450 2GB DDR3).

Now. As I said in first post, ReadyBoost is disabled in my system because of some disabled Sysmain...  Do u know how to enable?

I have my page file turned off. System isn WAY smoother since Windows isn't using the drive for memory. But having the page file off doesnt break anything, Windows simply keeps it all in RAM which is worlds faster than the HD.

I saw that u have your pagefile off. Probably I d had it off too with 12GB of ram.

So why on earth, if I have the memory would I want Windows doing anything for the memory on the hard drive? So no page file and no more needing the drive for it.

In the past, sometimes when I opened many windows system hanged. I guess it was because of zero pagefile, so I set 512MB.

Now, I havent understood yet... should I enable ReadyBoost in usb stick(thats the point of the thread) or not?

With 4 GB of ram, and if you never come close to filling it, then I would say give turning off the page file a try. Just to see how performance feels to you.

Turn off the page file?? I dont do that in my main system with 8GB because, as u said, "even when you have tons of memory Windows STILL uses the page file".
Is it so bad to give 512MB?

What about ReadyBoost? Do I enable it or leave it alone?

So. ReadyBoost is just pagefile into usb stick.

What do u think, should I use this function in this system (no games):

Gigabyte GA MA770T-UD3
Sempron X2 190 2.5GHz
Corsair DDR3 XMS3 1333 2x2GB 9-9-9-24
Intel X-25M 160GB SSD sata2
Win 7 Ultimate 64

I haven't seen readyboost. Where did you get that?

Make right click on your usb stick, then properties, and u ll see it.

I never use readyboost. It is only helpful if your system is always running low on memory

Physical or virtual memory?
I have set only 512MB of virtual mermory in order not to harm my ssd in this system(htpc).
My physical memory is 4GB DDR3 1333MHz.

Do I earn something if I turn on ReadyBooster in my USB stick(which I use to download the uncomplete torrent files)?

One more question, may I transfer virtual memory in the USB stick?

I recently heard about the ReadyBoost option which suppose to make system faster. Is this about transfer there(to usb stick) the virtual memory?

Meanwhile this option is disabled in my device because Sysmain is disabled... Whats this and how can I enable them both?

I used this Kaspesky rescue disk, what a great waste of time
Scanning took 17 hours(!)
Found a couple of incorrect warms(some java files and a MAME's one) and did not fix the win files. Sfc /scannow still says that corrupted files exist.

I guess Shane can talk for himself. In his first post said

If the system files are corrupt and infected then a repair install would be best.

Better than a fresh install because you can keep your programs and settings

and in his last post said

The only way to repair the SFC and the winsxs folder is by a reinstall.

And what repair offers then? Is it useless?
The other day u told me to make a repair with a linux dvd, now u changed your mind?

Which is the winsxs folder?

Well, I used "Windows defender offline", booted with that and deleted the virus, now antivirus is working properly.
But sfc /scannow still tells me that "there are corrupted win files which cannot repair all of them".

So, do I have to make that repair or it is not necessary?

Yes apparently it is infected, sfc /scannow told me that there are some corrupted windows files which cannot repair.
I have Win 7 Ult 64 SP1.
I already run combofix twice, do u want the log file, can u read it?
