ON

OFF Windows ME/98se may not recognize that a bridge is

READ-ONLY and may attempt to write to the bridge
anyway. If this happens, Windows ME/98se will generate a

"blue screen" error. The recommended settings to the left

eliminate the "blue screen" error.


NOTE: Some forensic users prefer to see the Windows

"blue screen" error if a write is attempted. Users with this

preferences should use the recommended settings for

Windows XP instead.

OFF

OFF Most other modern operating systems handle READ-

ONLY forensic bridges correctly, so the default OFF
settings are best for users of these operating systems.

IMPORTANT: As long as the Write Block LED is illuminated, the Tableau bridge will never permit

writes or other modifications to the subject hard disk. Switches 2 and 3 only affect the way the

bridge appears to behave from the perspective of the host computer.

NOTE: Switches 2 and 3 are ignored when the Tableau bridge is in READ-WRITE mode (i.e.,

when the Write Block LED is off).
