Change of disk write changing disabled
Fri, 8 Aug 2008 13:17:36 +0200
For a Netbook with only a SSD as its drive I would like to disable the "Disk
Write Caching" (Disk c: - Properties - Hardware - Policies - Enable write
caching on disk) - but all three controls are disabled.
Any hint? Or maybe a hint for its counterpart in the registry.

default green color that XP uses to display these compressed files to

TIA
