Windows 7 Readyboost and xp mode and Razer Imperator help

GGINS SG

hi ppl i have 3 questions in mind. 2are related to os but the last one is regarding a mouse Smile anyways
1)Win7 Readyboost: will it improve overall system performance? Currently stuck a 4GB flash drive into my com as extra sys mem and i saw a few more fps in my games. Will i get even more fps if i increase the size of it?
2)Win7 XP mode. Require a processor supporting virtualization?
3) got a Razer Imperator yesterday and wanted to try it out. I dunno why when i play games i find it hard to get an accurate aim. I’m running 1600dpi and 1ms response. Issit me not used to it or should i lower the dpi level? If so pls advise what dpi i should set Smile thanks!

for no.3 its definitely you..the mouse are all very sensitive, if you cant handle it then lower the sensitivity, but if you just suck then maybe you just suck no matter how good the mouse is.

it’s not me hu suck. Pls reconsider your words before saying them out. The reason why i’m not used to it is because i’ve been using a noob acer mouse for 2 months after my deathadder died. Tat’s why. Why not you try using a mini standard 3 click mouse for 2 months then switch to a razer? I would like to see how you’ll like it.

i was using a wireless mouse before i changed to a razer..and back in those days wireless mouses has a mini response lag time.. deal with it.. adapting doesnt take more then a day to get used to it..

1. If you're thinking of getting a larger thumbdrive just for Readyboost...I would recommend buying more RAM modules instead.

2. Not anymore, by using the recent patch.

3. It could be the mousepad. Try a lower DPI and see if the issue persists.

hmmm thanks Smile so does readyboost help in multitasking since It increases more memory?

It helps in multitasking by caching whatever frequently used files there are, since a flash drive has much better access times than a HDD.

Windows Ready boost lets the flash/thumb drive act as a RAM, so only if you have a shortage of RAM it shouldn't affect.

Any increase in your game fps is probably co-incidental(with fps counter) or self-imagined.
