The Intel Application Accelerator is a great program, released by Intel, that will boost the performance of a user's system by optimizing the flow of information between the CPU and the storage devices. This improvement is accomplished by replacing the storage drivers that come with Windows XP with drivers that are optimized for their motherboards. According to Intel, the Application Accelerator will eliminate the data storage system bottleneck on the motherboard, which will allow the CPU to be more efficient and will speed up various aspects of the system.
On top of the bottleneck solution, which improves system performance, the Application Accelerator claims to increase application and even game performance because it will increase the speed of disk inputs and outputs. In other words, the applications and games can read and write data faster...................................

What are the system requirements?
Unfortunately, the Intel Application Accelerator will only run on certain systems, and your system must meet the strict requirements for it to run without causing problems. After all, the reason why it works so well is because it can optimize the storage driver to work at peak performance for a specific motherboard.
Basically, your PC must meet the following three different qualifications:
1. Your PC must be running an Intel CPU: the Pentium II, III, IIII, as well as the Celeron-based processors and Xeon series of processors. Sorry, AMD users.
2. You must have the Intel Chipset Installation Utility installed, if your chipset requires it. Visit www.intel.com/support/chipsets/inf/inf.htm to view a table of motherboard chipsets that need to be installed. It your motherboard requires it to be installed for the system to correctly identify your chipset, visit http://downloadfinder.intel.com/scri...?ProductID=816 to download a copy.
3. The last qualification to use the Intel Application Accelerator is that you must have a supported motherboard chipset. Refer to Table below to see what chipsets are supported.
Tip: If you do not know what kind of chipset your motherboard has, Intel has a free utility that will detect your chipset and display the model number for you. Visit www.intel.com/support/chipsets/inf/chipsetid.htm to download a copy of this utility. If your chipset is not listed, then check the Intel Application Accelerator Web site.
See Intel Application Accelerator Compatibility Table below:

860 Supported
865G Not Supported
865P Not Supported
865PE Not Supported
Also, if your chipset is not currently supported, there is always the chance that someday Intel might add support.
Caution: If your chipset is listed in the Table above as not supported, and is also listed on the Intel Web page as not supported, installing the Application Accelerator on your computer will result in big problems. Doing so will screw up your computer so much that it will not boot.
Additionally, Intel Application Accelerator has been confirmed by Intel to work with Windows XP SP1 Home/Pro. Windows XP SP2 Home/Pro has not yet been officially confirmed to work on supported Intel hardware but it is still worth giving it a try. Just make sure that you are using system restore to make backups so that you can easily revert to your previous settings.

Installing Intel Application Accelerator
Installing the Intel Application Accelerator is very simple. This cool application will be running on your computer in no time if you just do the following:
1. Download a copy of the Application Accelerator.
2. Then once you have the file downloaded, install the application by following the onscreen directions.
3. After the install is completed, reboot, and the Application Accelerator will be installed and running.
If you have a laptop that has a supported chipset, you should be aware that in the recent version of the Intel Application Accelerator, version 2.3, support for mobile devices was removed. You will have to install version 2.2.2 instead. Download:
