Hey yall soo I was getting upset how the system would boot fast but not put all my tray icons visible. when the exe is loaded.. annoying ,, soo I found out how to stop ReadyBoot in perpformance tab trace ,, it didnt work. So I read something else, I forgot what but once I did that readyboot was killed.

There is no part of Windows 7 called "ReadyBoot". Is this some freeware program you installed?

ReadyBoot is part of Readyboost.

It tries to cache the disk based on previous boots.

I stand corrected. By Tweakboy. Sigh.

Take solace in the fact that ReadyBoot likely wasn't the cause of the issues he described.

Dude its part of the OS. There is a readyboot folder @ c:\win\prefetch\Readyboot.


Type readyboot in your regedit and u will see .......


This is crucial part that makes your load up fast,,, so I broke it somehow.

I can't believe no one knows a fix for this ? Im not willing to do a reinstall .....
