I’m just curious what is the roadmap for the future versions? And when shoud we expect next version Beta testing?
P.S. On January, 29 There already were cracked versions of Eboostr. :-(.
It’s not good, but it shows that the programm is very usefull and popular.
I am a Beta tester from Italy (so, soory for my written errors)
I use eBoostr 3 Beta b.490 with a 4 gb Sd hc card on my Vista home premium Pc.
Last week I defragged my Hd system partiton (C:) and data (D:) with a Pirisoft tool called DEFRAGGLER (very good & fast), after I restarted my Pc windows had many errors and issues ( I couldn’t open any program, services couldn’t load, no restore point because of error 0x81000202, my Pc was totally locked and even the safe mode couldn’t do much).
Fixed: I Noticed that many of the problems were regarding the eBoostr accelerated programs and windows services so i thought maybe the OS copied part of those files in the Sd card and they loaded with eBoostr, BUT i defragged C: and D: not H: (the sd card) so those files were moved in the System C: due to the defrag process and maybe lost corresponding links and position in the H: sd card.
I turned off the pc, removed the sd card, restarted without the sd, everything was OK!
Finally I just inserted the sd, cleared it and made a new Cache process in eBoostr… :D
It’s fine now, but i’ll always remove te sd and turn off eBoostr while defragging.
Ciao, Marco.
Just repaired a problem with cache memory. I am using a SanDisk 1GB SD3 card in a Compaq nc6120. Here’s the chronology;
1) Formatted 1GB card as FAT32, installed build 483. Random read speed was around 7 Mb / Sec. Tested for about three weeks.
2)Installed build 490. Removed device, re-added, allocated, built cache. Got warning about slow speed (122 Kb/Sec).
3) Removed device from eBoostr, had Windows do a repair with fix sectors and fix file system checked.
4) Added device to eBoostr, same speed problem.
5) Installed build 491, the rolled back to483, same speed problem.
6)Reformatted SD drive. Speeds back up to 7+ Mb/Sec.
7)Reinstalled build 491. Speeds OK
My question is, why is the reformat necessary? It looks like something on the SD card got corrupted that a disk repair couldn’t fix. From now on, I will go through a complete deinstall device / reformat device / upgrade eBoostr / reinstall device.
:-((( Just had a crash (BSOD) on my XP Pro last evening with build 490 running. I’ll upload the dump asap. It happened right when I asked (politely) TrueCrypt 6.1a to unmount 2 volumes, one being on a USB key, the other one on an USB HDD. I tried to use whocrashed from Replendence Software, but all I got was that there was no dump, yet there is one !
Hi,
I am confused as to what is expected of us now that v3 has been announced. I am now getting the message of “2 days to expiration ….”
Is beta3 build 491 really just the new v3.0 that has been released?
What are we expected to do now that the beta is ending, with only 2 days to expiration of the license? Are we getting a full license for being beta testers?
Please advise.
Thanks.
John
I’m not sure if it’s my PC or not but being very eager to look at the complete help file I noticed that several pages remain blank. For instance the “Getting Started” page is blank.

Hello,
On my XP SP3 system I am testing with 400 Mb RAM, 1 USB 4Gb FAT32, 1 USB 4Gb FAT32 and 1 USB 16GB NTFS. After building the cache all seams normal for the RAM, the 2 4GB USB . For the 16Gb NTFS USB the cache is only at 59% BUT the random read speed is “n/a” ??
Why? Due to the fact that the cache is not filled at 100%?
Can you please explain again what I need to do to use eBootr in DualBoot XP and Vista?
Thanks in advance
Emile
I’ve noticed that a number of pages in the Help file still aren’t built. How long???
I was wondering if it would be possible to post the changes from Beta Build 490 to Release Build 491.
The new features posted on the main site are changes between the previous version (2.0) to the new release (3.0), however it does not mention anything regarding any fixes/changes/improvements between the last Beta build and the released version.
