Thinking of Buying a New Laptop?,Think again

I'm Back and Here's my latest Post(sorry for the delays)

Well,Your laptop has aged...........,

It has been quite a long time since it was the machine you loved and admired for its speed and workability.It is now proving to be a liability,failing to perform at situations where its perfomance would be critical.Constant data loss,BSOD(Blue Screen of Death) etc..............

Now dont you worry....(Infact there is a solution,without spending a buck!!!!)

Note:

This is valid only for original laptops.

1.Now check your laptop's box contents to find some cd's.

2.Now find the cd named recovery cd,there usually be 2 cds(disk 1 and disk 2).

3.Before you do anything,change your bios setting to boot from the cd.

4.Done,ok great now insert the cd when computer is in ON state.

5.Before you do anything else,BACKUP anything you might reqiure from C drive to a external        hard disk.(this will prevent loss of essential data).

6.Now restart the computer,you will boot from the cd now follow your onscreen instructions.

7.After this process is over the computer will restart 2 to 3 times to install drivers,etc..

8.Finally,Your laptop is now as good as new!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

9.Dont thank me,Pat yourself on the back!, You have been a lot smarter than your other                  collegues who bought a new laptop just because they got fed up of thier old laptops.

10.Now i would reccommend you to increase your RAM to a minimum of 2 gb or as much as              your chipset supports.

11.Now Show off your new lapop!

Cheers,Njoy!!

Do you refresh your desktop?

"Do you refresh your desktop?". Ask this to any Windows user and 99% of them will reply with a "yes". Of course, there are various needs for refreshing the desktop but the majority of people who do it don't even know why they are doing it. Refreshing the desktop is perhaps the biggest computer myth among all Windows users.

Every single person I have met does this or at least used to do it. It's not known who first discovered this remarkably useless trick and what he achieved from it, but it just spread. Most new users learn this trick from other new users without caring to know what it does. Some do it devotedly just because others do it, while some others have various weird explanations for it. A few of them assume that it refreshes the RAM, while some others believe that doing it will somehow keeps their PC running smooth and easy. I have seen some users obsessed with refreshing the desktop, doing it every 30 seconds or so. They have even learnt the keyboard shortcut - F5 (just to mention, these are the people who never use keyboard shortcuts). They would press the key and wouldn't release it for a long time, sending the desktop into a frenzy of refreshes.

What does a desktop refresh actually do? Refreshing the desktop simply redraws the icons on the desktop. That's it! It doesn't refreshe the RAM. It doesn't clean up your PC. It doesn't refresh your computer the way it refreshes you when you wake up from a nap. Refreshing the desktop has absolutely no effect on the working or performance of the computer. So why is the tool there? As I said, refreshing is only used to re-display or redraw the icons on the desktop. Sometimes when you bring some changes to the desktop icons, the change doesn't get reflected instantly. In such cases, refreshing the desktop becomes necessary to bring the change to effect. Say, you have the desktop icons set to arrange themselves alphabetically on your desktop. When you add a new item to the desktop, this item wouldn't get arranged alphabetically, instead it would appear at the bottom of icon list on the desktop, irrespective of it's name. Now if you refresh the desktop, all the icons would be once more arranged alphabetically and the newly added item would go to it's appropriate position. This is what refresh is for. It is to re-display the desktop. Refresh has the same function when done in explorer. Also Refresh is basically the command used to refresh/reload the video buffer(VGA memory). Sometimes the changes made in the VGA memory are not reflected to the screen properly...Refresh just corrects the prob...

So, if you are in the habit of refreshing the desktop, stop it. You are just wasting your time and effort. And the next time you see a person doing it, don't forget to explain to him the futility of this action
