Laptop

By Kuristosu Dei
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A laptop computer, or simply, a laptop is a small mobile personal computer that has components that are similar to their desktop counterparts but are optimized for mobile use and efficient power consumption. Laptops usually have a built-in keyboard and typically employ liquid crystal displays (LCD). There are several categories of laptops like Ultra-Mobile Personal Computers (UMPC), Ultra-portables, Thin-and-Lights and Mainstream.

Laptops are also known as notebook computers or simply notebooks. A laptop generally runs on a single main battery and is capable of doing the same tasks as a desktop computer can. For a given price range, laptops are generally less powerful than a desktop computer as they prioritize their compactness and energy efficiency over absolute performance. Thanks to advances in dual-core processors and perpendicular recording, laptops are giving tough competition to PCs.

A laptop computer, or simply laptop (also notebook computer or notebook), is a small mobile computer, which usually weighs 2-18 pounds (around 1 to 8 kilograms), depending on size, materials, and other factors.

Laptops usually run on a single main battery or from an external AC/DC adapter which can charge the battery while also supplying power to the computer itself. Many computers also have a 3 volt cell to run the clock and other processes in the event of a power failure.



 

How to Choose the Best Graphics Card for Gaming

By Kuristosu Dei
First you need to look at the several factors surrounding the question 'what do you want in a graphics card?' Do you want the best quality, the best price offer, dual screen monitor support, what kind of games are you going play and so on. If you are into first person shooters at the highest quality you might spend around 300 to 500 dollars, but if you love strategy games then you might only spend under a 100$, it makes a big difference.

So as you research, what price range do you have in mind? Are you willing to spend over 100 dollars for a higher quality graphics card or do you want to stick with a basic model? Also, if your wondering whether the card in your computer is good enough to play the games you want?

The answer is most of the time no. The one put inside computer (unless it is a gaming computer) are usually bare minimum and not optimized for high computer gaming. And even if your video settings read 128MB in your system, it isn't always that, because your graphics card can be using shared ram. A long story short if your wanting to play any of the bigger RPG's or First person shooters then your gonna need a new one. On the other hand if your playing MMOs or (Massive Multiplayer Online games) or older RTS or (real time strategy) then you might do just fine.

On to bigger, better things, you need to look at how much MB of memory the card has and whether you need an AGP or PCI graphics card. In order to find out whether your slot is an AGP or PCI Click Here, it will give you the step by step on how to figure this out. In order to find out how much MB or memory you want its really up to you. It ranges from about 128MB to 768MB depending on how great you want your PC games to run. Most of the better games require a better one that will perform rather well, and requires a higher memory. Other than that you shouldn't really have to check much else, the card you buy (if fairly new) should come with all the newest shaders and parts tact on to the unit.

Now that your a little more educated visit this site YourGamerCard.com and it will show you every graphics card needed for whatever computer game and how much the card will cost you. I personally write for this website and you will probably find what your looking for.



 

Rebooting a Windows XP Computer Using Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP)

By Kuristosu Dei
We are frequently involved in projects with small and medium sized organisations. Due to the size of these organisations often the network infrastructure available is limited as a result of smaller budgets than their larger competitors. One side effect of this reduced budget is that our clients sometimes need hardware and software to function in ways it is not exactly designed for.

One example of this is often not being able to afford the licence fee for Windows Server and instead to use Windows XP Professional or even Windows XP Home to run a central file, print or database server. Clearly this approach would not work for a Microsoft Active Directory Domain Controller but can be used for many other types of server and there are times where there is no other option.

There are two usability downsides to be aware of for remote administration when taking the decision to use Microsoft Windows XP instead of Windows Server.

The first is that Windows XP Professional when accessed through Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) connections does not display a log off button or a reset option on the shutdown - the only option is to shut down the server which is not ideal and will mean that it won't restart afterwards; this can be solved.

The simplest way to overcome the problem is to create a batch file to restart the server, to do this:

1. Open Notepad (or another text editor)

2. Type: shutdown -r -t 5

3. Save the file somewhere sensible (such as the desktop) with a name such as restart.bat, the important thing is it ends with the extension of .bat

To run the file just double click it, the switches in the shutdown command are:

-r = restart (instead of shutdown)
-t 5 = the amount of time to wait before restarting in seconds - in this case 5 secs.

The second issue is that terminal services functionality available to facilitate remote administration through tools such as RDP is only sufficient to allow one user to log on at a time. This can cause problems if you use it as a development server for example, but as a file store it is unlikely you want more than one or two administrators - with a small number they can manage the situation by phone calls.

Techita would advise wherever possible to use the version of operating system designed for the role you intend the server to perform, however when this is just not possible this tip may make the management that little bit simpler.

Why Is My Computer Running Slow?

By Kuristosu Dei

Computer slowness can be caused by a variety of issues, which can be categorized in 2 categories: hardware or software. Computer hardware are the physical parts of the computer system, for example motherboard, CPU, RAM, etc. Computer software are all the programs and applications that are installed on your PC. Software includes the operating system like Microsoft Windows XP or Vista and all of the applications such as Microsoft Office, Photoshop, etc. Viruses, spyware and malware are software as well.

Things to check:

* Startup programs
* Virus and spyware scan
* Hard Drive out of space
* Fragmented hard drive
* Bad sector or corrupted files
* Overheating due to dust

Most common reason for computer slowness is unnecessary applications running in the background. When new programs & applications are installed many times they will be configured to start automatically when your computer starts.

These applications are not always needed, and will take up a portion of your computer's memory (RAM) which in turn will slow your computer down. To check what applications start automatically, clicks on the start button, then click on run, then type 'msconfig' and click on OK. Once the Systems Configuration Utility is open, click on the Startup tab. On the startup tab you can select the programs that you want to start.

Unselecting any of the programs in the startup tab will not remove them from your computer; it will merely keep them from starting automatically every time you turn your PC on. I recommend unselecting all the applications that you don't need. If you see software that you don't recognize it could be indication of virus of spyware.

If your computer is running slow and you're getting a lot of pop-up windows, even when you're not using the computer, your computer is most likely infected with a virus and/or spyware. Everybody should have antivirus software installed, updated and running at all times. There are many antivirus software packages, the best one on my opinion is Nod32 from ESET.

Regardless of antivirus software that you use, you should always keep it updated, and regularly scan your system for viruses. Most antivirus software don't check for spyware, so if your computer is infected by spyware, you should download a specialized spyware removal software. There are 2 programs that I use myself all the time, Spybot and Adaware they are absolutely free to use. Once you download and install these programs, make sure to run the updates and scan your entire computer.

Make sure your hard drive is not out of space. If it is, it's a good idea to get an upgrade, or delete some programs and files. Delete all of the temp files, temporary internet files and cookies, you could do it manually or use another free program called "ccleaner".

When files are stored on your computer's hard drive they are not always stored in the most efficient way and can become fragmented. Fragmented files take a lot longer for your system to open or save. To start the defragmentation utility click on Start then programs -> accessories -> system tools -> disc defragmenter. Defragment all of the drives listed. The defragmentation process can take anywhere from about 5 minutes to a couple of hours, and sometimes needs to be repeated. I recommend defragmenting the computer hard drive about once a month.

Another cause of computer slowness could be a corrupted system file or a bad sector on the hard drive. Bad sectors can corrupt systems files which can slow down your PC or even keep it from running.

To check and correct bad sectors run the scan disk (chkdsk) utility.

Make sure the computer is not overheating or running very warm. Most computer allow air to flow through the computer, this is great for cooling but also causes a lot of dust to accumulate inside of computer case. Dust will cause poor air circulation and might overheat your PC. Open up the case of the PC and blow all dust out using compressed air.

 

A Wonderful Story

By Kuristosu Dei
A woman came out of her house and saw 3 old men with long white beards sitting
in her front yard. She did not recognize them. She said "I don't think I know
you, but you must be hungry. Please come in and have something to eat."

"Is the man of the house home?", they asked.

"Then we cannot come in", they replied.

In the evening when her husband came home, she told him what had happened.

"Go tell them I am home and invite them in!"

The woman went out and invited the men in"

"We do not go into a House together," they replied.

"Why is that?" she asked.

One of the old men explained: "His name is Wealth," he said pointing to one of
his friends, and said pointing to another one, "He is Success, and I am Love."
Then he added, "Now go in and discuss with your husband which one of us you
want in your home."

The woman went in and told her husband what was said. Her husband was
overjoyed. "How nice!!", he said. "Since that is the case, let us invite
Wealth. Let him come and fill our home with wealth!"
His wife disagreed.... "My dear, why don't we invite Success?"
Their daughter-in-law was listening from the other corner of the house. She
jumped in with her own suggestion: "Would it not be better to invite Love? Our
home will then be filled with love!"
"Let us heed our daughter-in-law's advice," said the husband to his wife.

"Go out and invite Love to be our guest."

The woman went out and asked the 3 old men, "Which one of you is Love? Please
come in and be our guest."

Love got up and started walking toward the house. The other 2 also got up and
followed him. Surprised, the lady asked Wealth and Success: "I only invited
Love, Why are you coming in?"

The old men replied together: "If you had invited Wealth or Success, the other
two of us would've stayed out, but since you invited Love, wherever He goes,
we go with him. Wherever there is Love, there is also Wealth and
Success!!!!!!"

The difference

By Kuristosu Dei
This can be shown by countries like India & Egypt,
that are more than 2000 years old and are poor.

On the other hand, Canada, Australia & New Zealand,

that 150 years ago were inexpressive,
today are developed countries and are rich.

The difference between poor & rich countries does
not
reside in the available natural resources.

Japan has a limited territory, 80% mountainous,
inadequate for agriculture & cattle raising,
but it is the second world economy. The country is
like an immense floating factory, importing
raw material from the whole world and exporting
manufactured products.

Another example is Switzerland, which does not
plant
cocoa but has the best chocolate of the world. In
its
little territory they raise animals and plant the
soil
during 4 months per year. Not enough, they produce
dairy products of the best quality. It is a small
country that transmits an image of security, order
&
labor, which made it the world's strong safe.

Executives from rich countries who communicate with

their counterparts in poor countries show that
there
is no significant intellectual difference.

Race or skin color are also not important:
immigrants
labeled lazy
in their countries of origin are the
productive power in rich European countries.

What is the difference then?

The difference is the attitude of the people,
framed
along the years by the education & the culture.

On analyzing the behavior of the people in rich &
developed countries, we find that the great
majority
follow the following principles in their lives:

1. Ethics, as a basic principle.
2. Integrity.
3. Responsibility/Accountability.
4. Respect to the laws & rules.
5. Respect to the rights of other citizens.
6. Work loving.
7. Strive for saving & investment.
8. Will of super action.
9. Punctuality.

In poor countries, only a minority follow these
basic
principles in their daily life.

We are not poor because we lack natural resources
or because nature was cruel to us.

We are poor because we lack attitude.
We lack the will to comply with and teach these
functional principles of rich & developed
societies.

If you do not forward this message nothing will
happen to you. Your pet will not die, you will not
be fired, you will not have bad luck for seven
years
and also you will not get sick.

If you love your country, let this message
circulate
for a major quantity of people could reflect about
this & CHANGE, ACT !!!!!!!!!
