hi.
The same cash device is used.
I want to use it separately.
It did not solve it though it referred.
http://beta.eboostr.com/blog/feedback/eboostr-in-dual-boot-xp-sp3-and-vista-sp1/
It made it because it did not exist in the registry.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EBoost\Parameters]
“CacheFileName”=”\\eboostr2.dat”

Can you break it down a little for me? I'm a little lost on what you all are even talking about... I dont have dual boot system atm but I do know they keep things differnt from each other... The 2 cache files should'nt be messing with each other either. I know cus I do have 3 OS running and the same 2 USB going between.
We do cache separation for multiboot as well as for different PCs automatically. Cache files now are located in folder EBOOSTR. File names are constructed based on serial number of os drive. Mentioned above registry setting is not longer used (only to locate version 3 files).

Thank you for an answer.
It is XP in partition 0"CDRIVE".
It is VISTA in partition 1"GDRIVE".
I introduced eboostr into VISTA first.
I made the cash device SSD.
I introduced eboostr into XP next.
I started XP.
Because a cash device was the same as VISTA, I changed it to a system memory.
A cash device turns into a system memory when I start VISTA.
Is this specifications?

Sorry your terms are messing me up I think... let me break it down to what your saying to me so I understand better..
SSD and flash drives arnt the same, they are totally differnt type of tech. While they use the same storage (flash) they are differnt on many levels, chips, size, speed, exc...
1 Installed Xp on the C drive
2 Installed Vista on the G drive
==ok
3 You installed eboostr on Vista 1st.
=ok
4 I made the usb my cach device using eboostr
=ok
5 Next I installed eboostr on Xp
=ok
6 Caused I used the usb on vista. I changed it to system memory?
=not ok, I dont understand this step you took. If your usb was full when you said you used it for your vista then you cant change it to something else otherwise you are in a way took the information on it and deleted it.
7 The usb changed into a blank drive again when I went back to vista
=Yea, cause you deleted the information that was put on the flash drive by vista's eboostr
The reason you cant use the vista's ebootr information on the xp is cause the 2 OS are differnt in code, size, placements, exc... So you cant really use the same usb or flash drive unless you share/ partiton the drive, eboostr does this auto magicly for you so unless you use up all the flash drive you can do it. Aka 2gb flash drive, 1 GB for vista and the other g for xp will work. So using up all 2 gigs for vista then deleting it for xp to use up the same 2gbs is pointless and actully would increase start up time be alot. Besides killing your flash drive too... Unless your meaning something else I really dont see a bug or a installing problem, but again I could be wrong on what your actully trying to say..

Thank you for a careful answer.
Let's do a story simply.
There is the PC which is multi boot.
I want to use memory out of management in XP.
I want to use SSD in VISTA.
There is folder name "EBOOSTR" and understands that a file of the number name is cache file.
I do not think that I do conflict in a cash device.
I distribute it simply and want to use it.
Just in case you would like to specify cache file names for your OS manually (for multiboot system with same boot device for example). There is new DWORD registry value
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EBoost\Parameters]
“CacheFileIndex” - DWORD value.
For example “CacheFileIndex”= 1000

eBoostr Pro 3.0.2.508 - Help - Help - Tutorials... - eBoostr bei einem Dual-Boot System
Wenn Sie eBoostr auf einem Dual-Boot oder Multi-Boot System mit demselben USB-Stick einsetzen wollen, sollten Sie eBoostr auf Ihrem Windows-System so einstellen, dass ein anderer Cache-Dateiname benutzt wird. Fügen Sie hierzu einen neuen Registry Wert hinzu:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EBoost\Parameters]
CacheFileName="\\eboostr2.dat"
Um diesen Wert hinzuzufügen, gehen Sie bitte wie folgt vor:
1. Klicken Sie Start, Ausführen, geben Sie Regedit in die geöffnete Box ein und klicken Sie OK.
2. In der Registry suchen Sie den folgenden Schlüssel: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EBoost\Parameters.
3. Aus dem Bearbeiten-Menü wählen Sie Neu.
4. Wählen Sie String Value und tippen Sie CacheFileName in die Textbox.
5. Doppelklicken Sie den neuen Eintrag und tippen Sie \\eboostr2.dat in die Datenwert Textbox.
6. Klicken Sie OK, um die Änderungen abzuspeichern.
7. Starten Sie den Rechner neu, damit die Änderungen wirksam werden können.
Bei einer Multi-Boot Konfiguration mith drei oder mehr Geräten, fügen Sie bitte einen entsprechenden Registry Wert hinzu (zum Beispiel "\\eboostr3.dat", "\\eboostr4.dat" etc.) auf allen anderen Systemen hinzu.
Sorry, there is no helpfile in english. I'm using eBoostr Pro 3.0.2.508 on XP Pro SP3 and eBoostr Beta 4.0.0.536 on Window 7 Ultimate. eBoostr Beta 4.0.0.536 cannot be used on XP Pro SP3 here as it is creating blue screens and other error messages.
As i see in eBoostr Beta 4.0.0.536, there is not such a helpfile with similar or identical indications. So i think, i cannot follow those hints above and separate the eBoostr-USB-cache for XP pro-usage and 7 Ultimate-usage, right ? By the way, there are no "eboostr.dat" entries in registry yet.

I see there is no language option in eBoostr Pro 3.0.2.508 as it has been in 3.0.1.498, using that 3.0.1.498 on my laptop XP Home SP3 because eBoostr Pro 3.0.2.508 isn't able to create a cache file there for RAM (C:) or for USB-device (B:). eBoostr Beta 4.0.0.535 and eBoostr Beta 4.0.0.536 are creating problems on my laptop as well.

Hello mikei :)
"Just in case you would like to specify cache file names for your OS manually (for multiboot system with same boot device for example). There is new DWORD registry value

Thank you for your informations. I just don't know yet what is meant by "1000", is "1000" the file size or a file-cachename to be chosen by myself? For example, to be named in Windows 7 as "1000" and in XP Pro named "1001" ?
Please give us an example how to use this registry entry for a multiboot of two OS, such as XP Pro and 7 Ultimate, thanks ;)
