How to clear out or temporarily disable SuperFetch ??

I am trying to test different versions of an application. But when I
install a different version, the old version still seems to run, and this is
getting extremely confusing. I think it must be SuperFetch which is causing
this.

How do I temporarily disable SuperFetch, or flush it out from memory?

Cheers

ss.

Why on earth do you want to do that? SuperFetch is one of the very best
features of Vista. Caching your memory is a GREAT thing, not a bad thing.
