1. Right-click the device that you want to use for Readyboost and select properties. 2. Switch to the Readyboost tab and uncheck “Stop retesting this device when I plug it inâ€. Then unplug the device from the computer before you proceed. 3. Open Regedit and go to the key HKLM (Local Machine) -> SOFTWARE -> Microsoft -> Windows NT -> CurrentVersion -> EMDgmt which displays a list of all known USB devices on your computer. Choose the one that you want to use for Readyboost and edit the following keys in the right pane:
Device Status - Change that value to 2
ReadSpeedKbs - Change the value to 1000
WriteSpeedKbs - Change the value to 1000 as well
After that is done you can use the USB device for Readyboost.

In some cases you will have to CHECK "retesting this device when I plug it inâ€, it all depends on your drive; try it CHECKED first and it should work in most cases for the 10 USB sticks I've tried this on.
(The first one I tried OBVIOUSLY needed it unchecked)
