Do i need a Registry Cleaner?

A Registry Cleaner simply helps to remove wrongly created references or invalid references pointing to a file (mostly a DLL file), a program or any other system data which does not exist anymore. These invalid references may be created due to one of the following reasons :

• A system crash causing invalid entries
• Poorly programmed Uninstaller leaving behind invalid entries
• When a program is not uninstalled in a proper manner.
• Or many other reasons.

These registry cleaner programs definitely clean the Windows registry. However comparing the benefits and dangers of these programs, I can say that these programs can be really dangerous if you don’t know what you are exactly doing. So if you are a beginner i would highly recommend not to use such programs on your windows computer. However if you are an advanced user and if you know what you are doing, then you can use registry cleaner at your own risk.

Can Registry Cleaner cause Problems in my Computer?

Yes. Registry Cleaners can cause trouble, especially if they are poorly programmed. In such a case where Registry Cleaner is poorly programmed, it can remove a valid reference in windows registry causing a program to stop working or in certain situations it can cause Windows to malfunction.

What to do without a Registry Cleaner?

• If you encounter any problem in windows registry, you can always do a Google search for finding out the cause and solution to your problem.
• You can also find troubleshooting guide for your windows version on Microsoft’s website.
• You can perform regular system scans for viruses, spyware, malware, etc.

Which problems are fixed by Registry Cleaners?

• Registry cleaners can fix problems like Missing DLLs, Unused file extensions, ActiveX and class issues, MUI Cache, Fonts, Obsolete softwares, etc.

I want to use a Registry Cleaner, Which one would you suggest?

If your problem is not fixed and still want to use a Registry Cleaner then I would suggest CCleaner. It is very simple and easy to use. There are many registry cleaners available out there, but i prefer CCleaner. You can also check out EasyCleaner if you don’t like CCleaner. Note that: Whenever you are messing up with Windows registry, Always use the registry backup feature of your Registry Cleaner. So in case if anything goes wrong you can always restore your backup.

Did you experience any problem using a Registry Cleaner?

• Yes. I have faced many problems with different registry cleaners. However with CCleaner, the problems have been reduced to some extent.
• After cleaning my windows registry, i faced a problem in which my webcam had stopped working. This was due to removal of driver references by registry cleaner. As you can see these were valid references, but registry cleaner failed to determine that these were valid and hence caused my webcam to malfunction.

Why is my Task Manager Disabled?

If you are not able to access your windows task manager by shortcut keys, you may try right clicking on your task-bar. It will display a context menu with the option of task manager in grey text. Which simply means its not clickable and is disabled.
This might happen if your computer user account is set to limited. If you are logged in as administrator and still not able to access task manager then your computer might be infected with spyware. This has changed some values in your system registry, thus disabling the task manager.

Now to enable the task manager all you have to do is access registry editor (regedit) and navigate to the following key (folder) :

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System

In the above image, you can see we have navigated to the System folder, wherein we can find DisableTaskMgr value. Just double click on it to change the value.  The value 0 means enable task manager while the value 1 means disable task manager. You can change the value and save it. Or you might as well delete the value. To delete the value, just click on DisableTaskMgr value and hit delete button.
I have been reported that some users are not having the ‘System’ folder in the specified directory. So here’s an alternative method for them. What we have to do is make use of the Group Policy Editor (gpedit.msc). This alternative method is only for Windows XP Users.

1. Open start menu > run > type gpedit.msc > hit enter.
2. Goto User configuration > Administrative Templates > System > Ctrl+Alt+Delete options.
3. In the right panel, make sure that ‘Remove Task Manager’ is set to ‘disabled’ or ‘not configured’.
4. If it is enabled. Then click on properties. And just click disable.
5. Now your task manager must be back.

I hope you loved the post. If you have any doubt, feel free to comment below. Thanks.

Find the IP address of another networked computer

In Windows, how can I find the IP address of another networked computer?

In Windows 7, Vista, and XP, you can find the IP address of another networked computer by using the nslookup utility. Using the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of a networked computer, nslookup will query a DNS server and return the IP address that corresponds to that domain name.

To find the IP address of another comput...

er:

In Windows 7 and Vista, in the Start menu, type cmd in the "Start Search" field.

In XP, from the Start menu, select Run... . In the "Open:" field, type cmd and press Enter.
At the command prompt, type nslookup plus the domain name of the computer you want to look up, and press Enter. For example, to find the IP address for www.indiana.edu, you would type: nslookup www.indiana.edu

This command will return the following information:
Server: ns.indiana.edu Address: 129.79.1.1 Name: indiana.edu Address: 129.79.1.61

The first two lines show the domain name and IP address of the DNS server that answered the nslookup query. The next two lines show the domain name and IP address of the computer for which you were searching.
When you're finished, type exit and press Enter to return to Windows.

Connect Two Windows 7 Computers On LAN Using Ethernet Cable

There are times when you want to transfer your important files and documents from one computer to another. Especially, if you are to manage multiple computers on your home network or a workgroup, transferring files between them becomes tedious. Though you can use the following alternatives to transfer data.

1. The mostly used media to transfer files or documents is removable disk (USB drive). But the drawback of the removable media is that if you want to transfer a large amount of data, you need to divide that in various part as the total data would not fit in the limited space of your USB drive. It is also slow comparatively with the hard disk.

2. You can use Dropbox to sync files across multiple computers. Dropbox is a great tool but it is useless with out an internet connection.

Hence, you should use a fast, reliable and all time available way. One of the best choice to transfer files between two Windows computers is connecting them with an Ethernet cable.

The Ethernet cable is nothing but a simple cable connected with RJ45 clips at both ends. Bu it comes with two different configuration.
1. Straight-through cable.
2. Crossover cable.

You can see the configuration diagram of both types from the following image.



(image credit)

Where the crossover cable can be used only for file transferring, the straight-through cable can be used in various purposes.

Here I will discuss how to connect two Windows computers on LAN though an Ethernet crossover cable and how to transfer files, folders, videos, pictures, images etc. between them.

Create a Home network using an Ethernet crossover cable

Things that you’ll need:
1. A crossover or straight-through cable. This time I am using the crossover cable.
2. Supported network card in both computer.
3. Both of the computers should have the Ethernet driver installed in it.

Configuring the computers

Below are the steps involved in configuring your computer to connect them on a LAN using Ethernet cable.
Step 1. In order to start the connection, you’ll have to assign different IP address for both computers. To change the IP address of your computers for the LAN connection, you should make changes in the LAN adapter settings.

• Open Control panel from the start menu and click on Network and Internet and click on Network and Sharing center.
• From the left sidebar, click on Change adapter settings.

• Under the Network connections window select the appropriate icon for your LAN adapter and right-click on it, then choose Properties.

• A Local Area Connection Properties box appears.

• Under the Network tab select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) and click on the Properties button.
• Now set the addresses as mentioned below in each computer and click OK.

At the first computer ( say, Computer 1):

IP address:       192.168.0.1

Subnet mask:  255.255.255.0

At the second computer ( say, Computer 2):

IP address:       192.168.0.2

Subnet mask:  255.255.255.0

Step 2. Now, connect one end of the cable into the Ethernet port of Computer 1 and the other end with the same of the Computer 2 and apply the following steps in both the computers.

• Right-click on Computer from the start menu and select Properties.
• The system properties Control Panel window opens as shown below.

• Click on Change settings and the System properties dialog box appears. under the Computer Name tab, click on on the Change button to assign a WORKGROUP. Assign the same workgroup name for both computers otherwise it won’t work.

Restart each computer. It does not matter which computer you restart first. After starting both the computer, double-click on the Computer icon at the start menu and then click on Network from the left side of the explorer window.

In the computer 1, you should see an icon denoting your second computer’s name under the Network window. Similarly, you can see that the first computer has been appeared under the Network window of your second computer.



If they do not appear, you should get a message prompting to turn on Network Discovery and file Sharing. Click that security pop-up and select “make the network a private network”. In case, you may have to restart your computers.



Once you see the other computer in your Network computer window, just double click on it. If the other computer is password protected, you will have to enter the exact user name and password of that computer to get access of the shared folder.

If you want to share some files or folder of a computer with the other computer on the network, right-click on that and select Share with > Homegroup. Even you can share a total drive by right-clicking on it.


Let me know if you face any problem when sharing files between two computers on LAN.

Why Intel Processor is better than AMD Processor?

 

Intel is one of the world’s largest and highest valued semi-conductor chip maker. Intel is a combination of two words that is Integrated Electronics.

 

Intel deals in the manufacturing of chipsets, motherboards, network interface controllers and a lot more devices. The premier chip maker i.e. Intel for personal computers-companies such as Apple, Dell, HP, Samsung, Sony have product lines that depend on the processors that Intel produces. Intel’s processors offers the best performance for all-around usage.

 

AMD(Advance Micro Devices) is a semi-conductor company that provides processors and related technologies like motherboards, chipsets, graphic procesors , handheld devices and many more. AMD was considered to be the second largest supplier of X86 Architecture and third largest supplier of graphic processors. For many leading processors technologies like AM2900, AMD 29K, AMD7910 and AMD7911, AMD is the only manufacturer.

 

An important feature of AMD processor is Advance Clock Calibration which alters the internal settings of the computer by allowing individual settings of the core and the CPU. Another important features are AMD virtualization , which is known as the virtual extension of AMD 86 processors and Enhanced virus protection.

 

Comparison of Intel Processors with AMD Processors

As Intel’s main competitor is AMD which presents high-quality parts, insistently cost so there are some reasons why an Intel CPU is better for specific requirements.

 

1. Power Consumption

The power consumption of Intel Processors is 2 times less than that of the AMD processors.

2. Heat Generation

Intel has set a benchmark for producing less heat due to its less power consumption while AMD produces more heat as it consumes more power.

3. Compatibility

As Intel is one of the largest company for producing a wide variety of motherboards, chipsets etc. so it is easier for a person to find any product at a lower cost than that of AMD.

4. Intergrated Memory Controllers

As Intel has core i7 processors so they permit higher performance ceiling than that of AMD processors.

Market Share of Intel and AMD Processors

The market share of Intel processor is obviously much more than the AMD processors. Only the professionals have the knowledge of the AMD processors. The wide scale production and promotion of Intel processors is the only reason that even a layman knows that which processor to order. Besides the price of Intel processors is high it is preferred over the AMD processors. Moreover AMD is losing its market share to Intel Processor. The market share of Intel is about 80.2 % while leaving only 18.2% share for AMD. The core 2 duo processor of Intel left it far behind and again proved its lead in the processor market.
