INTEL CORE UNLOCK

HI,
Today let think about Intel core unlocking.
have you ever heard about intel core unlocking?
the answer is "NO"

core unlocking is only possible in AMD processors.

well let me tell you my own story.

here it is:-

last year my pc's configuration is
Intel dual core @ 2.50ghz (but i got only 1 core)
1GB DDR2 ram.

and after some months i upgraded my pc to play games.
i played many game,but sometimes due to single core i couldn't play some games like
call of duty black ops (it starts and crashes)
driver San Francisco (it also crashes)
and dirt 3 (it says "the game requires dual core")

this are some problems and also during game-playing games run slow and sometimes hangs.

i have searched many websites but nothing works.

than i thought i need to overclock my CPU may be this will speed up my gaming.

than i overclocked it and also unlocked core.


how?

here's the answer :-

like in AMD you need to enter BIOS and than unlock cores.
but for intel you just need to overclock it from 0.10ghz to 0.50ghz like i have done.

i just entered BIOS and overclocked my processor from 2.50 ghz to 2.60ghz.

it pretty simple.:)


NOTE:- unlocking intel core is possible only if there are 2 or more cores in CPU but you get less than that (like dual core contains 2 core but i got only 1 core)

thank you :)

COMPUTER SLOW DOWN

HI,
lets talk about computer slowing problem.

Causes:- basically computer slow down due to storage of temporary file,error files,installed or uninstalled software's files etc.
there are many Reason  associated with it.

if u instal or uninstall any software or driver it requires some other information for this purpose.and this information is stored in RAM (random access memory as it randomly access memory form various area of computer). whenever pc is shut down RAM automatically deletes all stored files.
also
if you're trying to run any software,games etc if some error report comes and program doesn't works,then this error reports are stored in that RAM but not deleted so as you keep information about problem and report it to the computer.

also some cache from internet and different website's temporary files are stored in this rams and also in computer to protect computer from malware while giving you information about it etc.

there are many reason.

how to fix it:-1) go to START MENU then go to ACCESSORIES then  go to SYSTEM TOOLS
                           click on DISC CLEAN UP.
                           run it and select all files and delete it.

2) use C-CLEAN or REG CURE to clean you registry.this is the free software and much effective for Indians as well.

3) use legal antivirus or anti-malware.download and bye it install it and scan your whole computer.

4) use  DERANGEMENTER. go to START MENU then go to ACCESSORIES then  go to SYSTEM TOOLS.
run it and speed your computer.

thank you :)

STOP 0X0000007B ERRORS

HI,
lets talk about 0x0000007B errors.
0x0000007B errors are the most common errors in computers.

these errors is called as BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH OR (BSOD)

causes of there error are:-1) failure of hard drive
2) failure in drives.
3) not proper working of hard drive or drivers.
4) failure or not proper working of motherboard.
5) processor fault(this is not every time but sometime)
6) memory slot or ram failur.

how to know or errors messages:- "stop;0x0000007b" or "inaccessible_boot_device"

color:- this messages appears on blue screen.
and written on upper or lower side of screen.
sometime this happen while operating windows or may be at the boot up screen.
or while installing OS or any other driver.

how to fix it:- 1) try to format and reinstall OS.while installing note down the speed of installation in your mind and compare it with the old speed as sometime you have done before.

2) if 1st method doesn't work try removing your hard drive and instal friends hard drive to your pc.and again try installing OS into the new hard drive.
OR
try to attach your hard drive to friends computer.

3) if this doesn't work test the ram using MEMTEST86.(a free software for ram testing,just write it to CD/dvd and use it while booting just like installing an OS)
 this while check your ram problem.

if its fine then only your HARD DRIVE problem is there.
take your hard drive to the service center and replace it with new one.

and instal the OS into the new hard drive.

NOTE:- before installing the OS into the new hard drive make sure to remove all PCI drivers from the PCI slot.

thank you:) 

CMOS BATTERY FAILURE AND SYMPTOMS

HI,
lets talk about CMOS battery failure and solution.

full form:- CMOS stands for complementary metal oxide semiconductor.

work/purpose:-every computer require a small battery on the system board that provides power to the Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) chip, even while the computer is turned off. This chip contains information about the system configuration (e.g., hard disk type, floppy drive types, date and time, and the order in which the computer will look for bootable disks). The CMOS battery allows the CMOS to preserve these settings.

failure symptoms:- 1) Incorrect computer date and time settings (earliest symptom while operating pc)
2) The laptop could not find a printer.
3) Malfunctioning of the mouse.
4) Problems launching a program.
5) Beeping sound from the computer.
6) You may start getting errors while in boot up in the motherboard BIOS that say: "CMOS Checksum Error', 'CMOS settings wrong', 'CMOS battery error' as well as 'CMOS read error'.


if any error comes please change the CMOS battery as soon as possible.
you can find it at watch stop,computer shop,electronic shop.
be careful while buying the battery.check the expiry date at of battery at the back of cover.
every battery at lest have 3 year of life span minimum and 10 year maximum.

thank you :)

COMPUTERS MOST FREQUENT PROBLEM,PCI DEVICE LISTING

HI,
Today we'll talk about computers most frequent problem know as PCI DEVICE LISTING.
lets start:-
pci stands for Peripheral Component Interconnect.
sometime due to newly installed graphic card,video card,add on cards,audio card,internal networking modem etc it occurs.
to know this problem just boot your computer and before booting it hangs at BLACK AND WHITE screen saying "PCI DEVICE LISTING"
there at the top left your computers configuration is written.something written like CPU TYPE AND CACHE MEMORY and so on.

at the bottom of screen there may be written ACPI CONTROLLER or MASS STORAGE CONTROLLER or DISPLAY CONTROLLER ETC.

then if you tried formatting your hdd and reinstalling windows and after that it isn't work.
then the only thing you can do (1st try this step then it works fine)
is 

1) unplug you pc.
2) open the cabinet.

3) take out all the pci device like graphic card or modem,video card etc make sure that pci slot is empty.
4) insert your monitor's plug into the motherboard's slot instead of  graphic card's slot.

5) take the windows CD/DVD and insert it into rom.
6) start your computer and enter BIOS while tapping DELETE or F10 from your keyboard.
7) go to  BIOS FEATURE SETUP.
8) there you'll find FIRST BOOT FROM.
9) change that 1sth boot to CD/DVD ROM.
10) hite f10 then hit "Y" from keyboard and then hit ENTER.
11) again install the OS.and after finishing the setup do not change the "1ST BOOT FROM TO HARD DRIVE" as your PC will automatically do this.
12) than after installation make your computer restart for almost 10 times.

then again if it works fine then instal your pci device.
hope this works.
thank you.

NOTE:- do not change your by yourself hard drive,motherboard,cmos battery or any other drive,or devices till they are not damage.
before installing windows backup your data or just format your whole hdd.than make a new partitions and reinstall it.there is also another way of doing this.if this doesn't work mail me.
