You can check if your computer is able to run Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard, the latest version of Mac OS X or any operating system like windows XP, Windows Vista, Linux, etc. You can see at any time how many fonts, drivers or extensions are installed on your computer with a lot of useful information. · Monitoring System LoadSystem load shows you processor usage in percents, the total number of running processes and threads and the available memory. It will helps you to understand how to improve the performance of your computer. · Monitoring Storage DevicesIn an effort to help users avoid data loss, drive manufacturers are now incorporating logic into their drives that acts as an early warning system for pending drive problems. This system is called Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology or SMART. CheckUp monitors the SMART status of drives in the background (even when the application is not running). It can also pop-up an alert via the growl notification system. · Monitoring NetworkSome causes of high network activity are linked to peer to peer connections, file copying or large print jobs. Use CheckUp to create a log and calculate the network utilization. CheckUp can also display bandwidth data in a real-time graph. It records all network traffic and the total amount of data transfered on your network. · Monitoring ProcessesThe processes manager helps you get to know all about running programs and manage them. You can terminate a process, change priority or temporarily stop it. This tool can give you additional information about selected process: memory used, processor power used, etc. · Detection of known problemsWhen you launch CheckUp, it will detect if your Mac have known problems reported by other Mac Users. Some computers were sold with defective hardware (hard drives, graphic cards, monitors, etc) and CheckUp is able to detect these problems and inform you about how to fix them with Apple help (in most case, Apple warrranty covers these problems).· Fast access to system toolsCheckUp includes many functions to improve the performance of your computer.
