The powertweak main window

This window is composed of a few elements which will be shortly described.

• The property page: Each page corresponds to one of the components that have been detected in your system. In these page you have several options available, which are greyed out if you have selected a preset mode (described later).

• The Current State Column: Shows whether the current option is activated (checked box) or not (empty check box). If the state is not available, then there is nothing displayed.

• The QuickHelp : Displays information about options. To get information on a particular element, simply place the cursor over one check box, and the corresponding text will display, if it is available.

• The Control Bar : at the bottom of the window with a gradent : Apply configures the system without exiting, OK configures and exits, cancel exists without configuring.

The configuration window

This window is displayed by the menu command File -> Options

• Show icon in tray window : determines whether Powertweak displays the icon in the tray window that will indicate your system has been optimized.

• Show splash window at startup : If not selected, it will not display the powertweak window at system startup. Do this ONLY if you are sure your system is properly configured, as this splash screen enables you to abort the configuration of your system by pressing "escape" when this window is visible.

• Loaded libraries : Enables you to select which libraries to load. This is useful if you know one of them makes the system crash: for instance, if the optimization of the chipset causes problems, you just need not to load this library, this will allow you to use Powertweak for your processor.
