Download DoubleDawg

DoubleDawg requires Windows 2000™ or XP™, and will not work on Vista™. I doubt that it will run on Vista due to a new device driver architecture. PCI dawg cannot be run from a network drive, due to Windows™ security requirements.

In order to use this program, you will need to read and agree with the End User License Agreement. I need this to maintain my intellectual property rights in the software and to protect myself from lawsuits.

The DoubleDawg freeware program uses the same code base as the Boot-O-Matic version, but without the ability to specify automatic configuration changes, and is available for download as well.

Operation of the buttons

• Set Latency: Enter the desired latency value and hit this button to change the PCI configuration value. I recommend that you set the video card latency to 128 or 96 for doing audio work.
• Save AutoSet: Any changes you have made since starting the program will be saved to an auto-configuration file that will be run when you start the program. This will overwrite any changes from previous sessions.
• Delete AutoSet: This will delete any auto-configuration settings and the next time you start Double Dawg, it will not make any changes.
• Add to Startup: This will add a link to Double Dawg so that it will apply any auto-configuration changes on start-up, but will not open an window or require intervention when doing so.
• Take off Startup: Deletes the link, if any, from the startup group.
• Copy to Clipboard: Will copy a report of pci settings on your PC to the clipboard where it can be pasted into e-mail or printed.
