I've recently used Readyboost in an attempt to speed up my computer, and it's worked fine up until recently, as my computer now displays a BSoD after the USB drive is plugged in. Any guesses at what might be the cause and solutions for it? Thanks in advance!

What os? xp/win7
What does the dump for the bsod say? (event viewer)
Are your drivers up to date? (device manager)

Also, have you searched elsewhere for a solution?

I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit.

Anyway, I've reviewed the dumps and it wasn't ReadyBoost so I've renamed the title. However the crashes only occur with the Readyboost drive plugged in. :/

Here's a dump from one of the crashes:

I'm told the Linksys wireless drivers don't go well with Intel Wifi drivers, so how do I fix it?

Uninstall one of the drivers and see if that fixed the problem? xD

Yep, looks and sounds like a software conflict. Try searching for versions of the drivers (either one) that don't conflict. There's definitely others who have the same set up and encounter the same problems. Then you can probably go ahead and do a manual roll back of the software version to get it working.
If that's not possible then sorry, but you might have to swap hardware to get one that doesn't conflict.

Btw... clean the inside of your computer when it's starting to run slowly and you've done all the diagnostics already (drivescan, defrag, anti-malware etc)
