486 best version so far…working perfectly for me
except tray icon does not show
update: after couple reboots tray icon working again
also like the new cache build…no longer shows deleted files
publish this version as new RC
I’ve been beta testing for a couple months now on my dual core AMD XP service pack 3 system. I do notice a considerable speed increase. Most noticable when opening up Lotus Notes or any of the MS Office software!
The one drawback is the 4 hour limit. Seems when it times out, it leave the system in some weird state that everything slows down. It becomes much slower than it was before I installed eboostr. What’s up with that?
Other than that problem, I think this software is a GEM!
Hello.
Does “eBoostr 3 Beta Build 486” work on “Windows2000 Pro SP4”?
A blue screen goes out immediately after the cash construction was done, and the operating system restarts.
Hello,
Yesterday I had a random read speed for my USB sticks at +- 13000. this morning after boot I only have 9600??
Otherwise the 486 is running well.
thanks
v3 b484 ran smoothly without any problems. I noticed no obvious difference in system resource use between this and the prior version.
I’ve installed eBoostr 3.0 Build 486 in my girlfriend’s Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo M1451G with Windows XP5.1 (Build 2600) Service Pack 3, RAM: 1024 MB, Intel(R) Pentium(R) M processor 1.73GHz. Everything was freezing (Google Earth, Spybot, Rocket Dock applications, …). Also ATI MOBILITY RADEON X300 configuration panel refused to open. After uninstalling 486 and installing Build 484, everything went back to normal. I’m using a 1 GB SanDisk Extreme III.
First measures with only 28% cache fill:
Direct access speed: 9.485269 MB/s
Cache enabled access speed: 18.463310 MB/s
Ratio: 1.946525
After upgrading to 486, I noticed that several (hidden) files are now being created in ….\application data\eboostr that I have never seen in previous versions:
etilqs_0A4z2E5NH8XWsyNpTmVy
etilqs_d275JUYDBtvM4Hoexey8
etc….
Several of these files stay there, even after a reboot.
What are they and why are they new in build 486?
popup says I can only try this for 14 days. My question is after 14 days does it continue to function or does it go back into demo mode?
I have IBM ThinkPad X-series laptops. I have CF a slot on my X31, and a SD slot on my X40.
I think they are connected through the same interface that is used for the PCMCIA slot, as if I disable the PCMCIA slots in Device Manager, the DF/SD slots stop working.
I think that using these slots for eBoostr cache could be an ideal way of speeding them up.
Will flash memory in these slots be fast enough to be used with eBoostr? What size cards would you recommend?
hey,
i search a long time a tool 2 use cf-cards or sd-cards -usb-flash for boosting in xp – before i test a pagefile over usb.
on my handy-lap-amilo pro/1 gig/1,4ghz it works perfect !!!
nobugs at all – this time. i used the lapthe whole day.
in the next time i will buy faster usb-sticks – the max. speed is with my normal sticks 2,5-3x speed.
bootupis 3x faster.
not good working with pcmcia cards and smart-media -slow.
greets
tommy
