Windows Vista ReadyBoost Installation Steps

I opted to try one of the new features of Windows Vista (in my case I am running Windows Vista Ultimate) - ReadyBoost.  What ReadyBoost offers is additional Swap File capacity using a USB Memory Stick (USB Drive).  There are some specifics on what Versions of Windows Vista ReadyBoost functions with and what capacity USB Drive is required to gain performance gains using ReadyBoost. 

Here are several links you might find useful on ReadyBoost:

       Tom Archer - SDK Program Manager at Microsoft - FAQ for ReadyBoost

       Windows Vista - Learn About Features - ReadyBoost

The steps I followed are included below.  I will provide an update Post on my percieved performance changes/improvements in another Blog Entry.
