Appendix A

A-2

Intel SBA

Prerequisites

Supported Operating Systems

Intel SBA supports following OS:

Windows 7 32bit/ 64bit

Windows 8 32bit/ 64bit

Required User Permissions

You must run the installer and the customization wizard with a user that has local

administrator permissions on the computer.

Windows Update Settings

In certain conditions, the Windows Update task in the PC Health Center application is

disabled and cannot be enabled. This can occur if Intel SBA is installed on a computer

where Windows Update was disabled during installation of the Windows operating

system. The Windows Update task is shown in the GUI but is grayed out (disabled).

Even if the end user enables Windows Update in the operating system, the PC Health

Center task cannot be enabled. This means that the end user cannot use PC Health

Center to manage Windows Update.

To prevent this, make sure that you do NOT select the Never check for updates option

when installing the Windows operating system.

Windows Task Scheduler

Some PC Health Center tasks are applications that can also be used directly from

the operating system and scheduled via the Windows Task Scheduler. When a task

is set via PC Health Center, an alarm clock is set that will wake up the computer if it

is turned off. Defining a scheduled time for an application/task outside of PC Health

Center does not set an alarm clock. This means that the computer will not be woken

up to do the task.

For this reason, it is NOT recommended to define schedules for these applications:

Windows Updates

Windows Backup and Restore

Disk defragmentation

Instead, let the end user set the schedule for all these tasks via PC Health Center.
