What is the HP Performance Tuning Framework*?

The HP Performance Tuning Framework is a preloaded utility which enables the most favorable configuration of HP Personal Workstations delivering stability and best performance. The Framework will guide your system setup, allowing a "custom" configuration that best matches the workstation to user requirements. This customization facilitates availability of the latest graphics cards and drivers and removes some memory restraints. The Framework’s extensible design permits new configuration functionality and application support be easily integrated over time. To facilitate the delivery of such new features, the Framework automatically updates itself when newer versions become available. The Performance Tuning Framework, available only from HP, can help save both time and money and increase overall productivity.
