In our test we can turn on but there are no result in terms of performance.

Is a hardware issue.

I think changing the disk controller and turning write caching on does not
have any problem – is the default installation on Windows!

I believe this is the problem.

We found the setting when looking at the Device Manager. The 'enable write
caching' is turned off. It won't allow us to turn it on. I am guess the
hardware doesn't allow it.

In the Windows Help it mentions that turning it on can cause issues with
corruption.

Are these the same issues as we have if we turn 'forced writes off' in
Firebird?

I am thinking the risk of 'forced writes off' in Firebird is greater than
turning write caching on in Windows.
