Drives
General
Windows XP:
Here you make certain settings concerning your hard drives. For example you can enable UDMA66 support,
which can speed up access to your drives.
Under NTFS file system, you can set two options that relate to the new Windows NTFS file system: Save the
date of the last access to a file and Save short (DOS) file names. We recommend that you leave both options
enabled, as disabling them may have negative side effects on the efficiency of hard disk defragmentation and on
compatibility with older software.
Memory space
Windows automatically sounds the alarm if there is only a small amount of disk space remaining on a drive. If
this warning disturbs you, you can disable the Display warning about low disk space option.
AutoPlay
Under Media change monitoring, you can turn on the Monitor CD drives for media change option. If you do
so, Windows monitors the CD drives. As soon as a new data carrier is inserted, Windows reads it and tries to
launch its content automatically.
Under AutoPlay, you can click on Advanced to open a window in which you can specify autoplay settings for
various data carriers, such as music CDs.
Advanced
Under TuneUp Styler, you can click on Start TuneUp Styler to call up the module and use it to change the
icons of individual drives.
Under TuneUp Drive Defrag, you can click on Start TuneUp Drive Defrag to open the module for defrag-
menting drives and for optimally arranging files on the drives.
Windows XP:
Under My Computer, you can click on Settings to specify which drives are displayed in the Windows My Com-
puter.
Windows Vista and Windows 7:
Under Computer, you can click on Settings to specify which drives are displayed in the Windows My Computer.
Memory and Cache
Memory Management
This includes settings for managing the physical and virtual memory.
Under Virtual memory, you can specify that drivers and the Windows system core can be replaced if necessary
or are always kept in the RAM.
Under Page file, you can specify that TuneUp Utilities always overwrites the content of the Windows page file
with zeros, thereby deleting it when the system is shut down.
Clicking on Recommended accepts the settings recommended by TuneUp Utilities.
Memory Usage
Here you can set whether the computer should reserve more RAM for the programs or for the system cache.
