Windows 7: Superfetch?

Gamerguy · 24 Jan 2009

My Windows 7 keeps switching from Aero theme to the regular theme. Every time it switches from Aero to regular, it says Superfetch stopped working.
Any clues what could be bothering Superfetch? D:

Yes it could be a compatibility problem with your usb memory stick, or is that ready boost? Think I got mixed up.

USB Memory stick?
haha...
what? >_>'
I don't have one in.

EDITT: Heyy. I fixed it!

I just searched for updates and I updated my Video Driver.

At least I think I fixed it, it's been 10 minutes without a switch. O_o

Glad you fixed it.

Nevermind.
I just rebooted my computer and the problem is back. D:

You could try disabling superfetch in services to see if that stops it.

Gamerguy · 25 Jan 2009

That seemed to fix the problem. Thank you very much

Rep+ (If I can) will be given :P

Hello tusharaggarwal,

Welcome to seven forums.

To disable; Start orb/type 'services' (no quotes). Hit enter or click on services on the list. Scroll down to superfetch/right click/properties. Hit the stop button and then select disabled from the dropdown list.

Hope this helps.

Is superfetch the same as readyboost? I searched Windows Help for it and did not get any matches.
