    I wanted to boost my iMac's performance with an USB-stick for Windows' Ready boost function, but I could not activate Ready boost in my Windows 7. I get the message that the service "Sysmain" is deactivated and would therefore have to get activated by an administrator. I could, however, not find how to do that.
    Before I search any further I wanted to ask if there are any known issues with Ready Boost under Parallels?

    Thanks for your help.

    I recently tried Readyboost and did not encounter any problems. However, I found it to have no measurable effect on the VM's performance. So I deactivated it on my USB stick.
