Posted August 10, 200717 yr Hello, I have a new Lenovo Thinkpad T61 with Intel Turbo Boost memory. I have enabled "readydrive" and "Readyboost" in the Intel Turbo Boost memory control panel. However, when I look at the hardware settings for my hard drive, in the NV Cache Tab I get this message: "This device has 387 MB of NV (non volatile) cache and can help improve system performance. If using this disk as a Hybrid Hard Disc is enabled, the disk can provide power savings and optimize the boot and resume times of the system. The use of this disk as a Hybrid Hard Disk can be turned on or off by the group policy administrators." So, my questions are: (1) If I've turned on Readyboost and Readydrive, am I getting the advantage of that 387MB NV Cache, despite this cryptic message? Is there a way to know if it is activated? (2) If not, what are 'group policy administrators' and how do I change that setting. I figured that I am the group policy administrator as it's my laptop. But I couldn't find anything either on the web or in the Administrative Tools program. Any sugestions would be appreciated. Chris Collins
