Welcome to CD-QUICK Cache for Windows 95
Version 3.00
Revision History
Version 3.00 - 11/17/97
Added a persistent disk cache feature, so the cache will remember from
disc to disc and session to session. Greatly enhanced control over full
motion video caching. Now has full support for AVI, QuickTime and MPEG.
AVI caching would not be disabled if the program thread that read the
file was not the same thread that opened the file. Fixed. Made QuickMon
a trayicon application. CD-Quick now has the ability to report
performance data to the Windows 95 System Monitor utility. Keycodes can
now be entered from the opening splash screen. Now allows an uninstall
if in "Safe Mode". QuickMon can now adjust for on-the-fly screen
resolution and color palette changes. Setup now sets the non-compressed
hard drive with the most free space as the default for cache storage.
Now displays a warning if installation is attempted on Windows NT. Now
warns if a Keycode for the DOS/Windows 3.x version is entered. Added a
running day count to the opening splash screen. Fixed some minor user
interface issues such as the use of the wrong text color with a black
background.
Version 2.01 - 1/8/97
A long standing compatibility problem was discovered that could occur
with any low level disk utility that does volume locking. After such
a utility was run, Windows 95 would no longer allow CD-Quick to access
its swap file. Known utilities that exhibit this problem are the
Windows 95 ScanDisk and Defrag, and the Norton Utilities Speed Disk.
This version of CD-Quick fixes the problem.
Version 2.00 - 12/28/96
Added the new utility, CD-Test to demonstrate CD-Quick's effectiveness.
All graphics have been updated to Windows 95 conventions throughout
as well as new ones for CD-Quick. CD-Quick's timing has been changed
to improve operation with some CD-ROMs. Maximum cache size for disk
has been increased to 128MB. QuickMon's "Cache On" selection will now
remember it's setting between sessions. A direct link to our Web Site
has been added to CD-Quick's splash screen and help file. CD-Quick no
longer displays a warning if no CD-ROM is found at startup (done for
Laptops with removable drives). Uninstall can now remove the CD-Quick
directory as well. Install will no longer mark files as "Read-Only"
if installed from a CD-ROM.
Version 1.20 - 6/10/96
Some Windows 95 CD-ROM drivers still had compatibility problems with
CD-Quick. This has now been fixed for good. Added the ability to
disable caching of .AVI video clips. CD-Quick no longer requires
CTL3D32.DLL. QuickMon now displays the percent saved when minimized
in the Windows 95 task bar. Setup is unable to add a ShortCut for
QuickMon if the Start Menu isn't in English. Added a warning message.
Added a text file to aid in uninstalling CD-Quick for those people who
won't read the manual.
Version 1.10 - 4/16/96
Some Windows 95 CD-ROM drivers had problems with CD-Quick, causing
the software to lock. Fixed! If QuickMon was started without first
accessing a CD-ROM drive, a page fault could occur. Fixed! CD-Quick
wouldn't delete its old swap file if the drive used for the swap was
changed. Fixed.
Version 1.00 - 3/19/96
First release.
