This happened after exiting speed test and launching eboostr:
eboostr3 after extensive & boring routine tests on a pass of my hard drive using antispy software and a £1.99 512MB lexar memory stick, the application reduced the hard drive Pass operating time from a std 33:30 mins to 30:10 .. prioritising the software with the option in eboostr3 made no difference whatsoever .. the memory stayed unused most of the time either way .. using the software supplied with windows vista the time for the same run was reduced to 26:40 .. Vista 33:30 to 26:40 … eboostr3 33:30 to 30:10 …as it is eboostr3 sucks at the moment .. it needs to be more active .. it also appears to have swithching priority problems when scanning large-ish file(s) .. basically it failed on the non visible portion of data scanning
I suggest we give Eboostr 3 a stylish Vista-like look. We’ve noticed that the very best software out there has a pleasant look, yes ? So if we are going to help develop one of the best software products, it should contain this feature. After all, first impressions last forever.
Applications found list does not show all necessary programs which I would like Eboostr to accelerate .
Moreover, I chose a program from it, but they DID NOT appear on the Accelerated applications list ! I tried again after restart, just in case, you know, but with no result again. Serious issue , which needs immediate resolution.
At startup, the Control Panel successfully starts up, except it reports that the service is not started.
In the Services list, eBoostr service is set to automatic, but fails to start when manually started.
“Could not start the eBoostr Service service on Local Computer. The service did not return an error.”
Also attempted running the exe referenced EBstrSvc.exe to no effect.
Examining EBstrSvc.exe using Dependency Walker reveals a missing dll:
Shlwapi.dll > Apphelp.dll
Is this dll supposed to be included with the distribution?
Speed test is not working in a way I can interpret. I let it run for 93 cycles over about 1/2 hour and finally aborted it. Here was my results screen.
Any comments?
Despite some issues, Eboostr 3 RC definitelly deserves positive feedback after all. After I set things right, I experienced a faster bootup, but, most importantly, I have many programs scheduled for startup. Some of them used to start VERY slowly, thus making performace sluggish. Given the fact I am a computer specialist, I do serious things on my PC like programming / beta testing and such.However, startup was a real pain for me. No more, I’d like to say.No more – with Eboostr 3 ! Everything now starts faster and continues working smoothly – something I’ve never experienced before on my comparatively old PC ! When I first installed Eboostr 3, I couldn’t imagine I would get such an awesome performance improvement. Thank you very much and keep up the good work !
Immediatelly after a speed test, I received a C++ Runtime Library problem message. After that, Eboostr crashed. Moreover, after the crash PC performance slowed down considerably for the next 4 or 5 minutes. I couldn’t even start Task manager to restart my PC. I barely managed to start Task manager, eventually, and restart. Seriuos issue indeed !
Please correct it.
Immediately after a speed test, I received a C++ Runtime Library error. Then, the program crashed. I had to start Eboostr again. Please corrct this issue.
