Kington data traveller 512mb USB drive

My flashdrive (kingston data traveller 512Mb) was working vey well with
readyboost enabled on build 5384 beta2
Now that I have RC1 installed it won't work I get the message saying "device
does not meet the required specifications"
What has changed ??
BTW FYI before upgrading to RC1 I disabled readyboost and removed the flash
drive
Has anyone else had this issue ?
or have the minimum requirements changed ?
I know for build 5384 the flash drive had to be at least 512 Mb and USB2
compatible

Go into Device manager. Under "Disk drives" find your
device. Select the "properties" of the USB drive. Open
the "Policies" tab. Make sure "Optimize for Performance"
is checked.

That might do the trick. Testing it a few times may also
do the trick. Also, moving it to another USB slot may work.
