SUPERFETCH AND READYBOOST FOR VISTA

 
Could anyone give me an opinion if this is a good idea? My concern is could it hurt the hard drive if being used on a consistant basis. My thought on this is since my video card has only 128MB dedicated RAM and 512MB total video RAM(2GB total system RAM) leaving me with alittle less than 1.5GB system RAM if I use a 1GB flash drive will this help me at all? Any imput would be appreaciated.   Thanks

    Have exact same system except only 1 gig RAM, saved $130. Ordered 2 gig Flash drive today will bring RAM to 3 gig.  Vista 32bit max is 4 gig.  Microsoft says the flash drive will help so I believe them! Any idea why dell shipped Vista 32 bit when we got 64 bit processors? Good luck!

    Driver support for 64 bit is limited at this time.  Not every application can actually take advantage of the 64 bit processor.  And word of mouth has it that in some cases, the 64 bit version runs slower.
