You might have encounter Windows completely freezing not letting you even open the start menu to restart. Doing a hard reset isn’t good for your PC components especially the hard drive. Here’s how you could restart your PC without having to do severe damage to your PC.
You can bring up Task Manager using the following keys:
- Hit Ctrl+Alt+Del and click on Task Manager
- Hit Ctrl+Shift+Esc to bring up Task Manager

Once the Task Manager pops up, you could either restart or shutdown a hung process from the process list, or you could click on Shutdown> Restart to restart the computer.

As you would probably know Expose is an application for Mac OSX which lets you quickly tile windows and with a flick of a key you could go to your desired window. But hey could we do that with Windows Vista too….. Yes! you can. With a cool application named Switcher your life could be little easier.
Switcher lets you select between three views firstly, default tiled view that Mac purists are accustomed to.

Next up is the Dock view that is more like a switching between tiles in a parallel manner on the top of the desktop. All you need is to hit the tab key to switch between windows.

Ever wondered if its possible to hide a particular disk drive (disk partition) that houses your important documents that you don’t want to expose. Hell…yeah! you can hide them. Windows Xp has a simple utility that does just that.
- Go to Start > Run > Type “diskpart”
- after a command prompt window comes type in “list volume“.
- Now for example you wanna hide C, then type “select volume 2“
- Now type “remove letter C” (most cases it works instantly, but sometimes restart may be required)

Recently GPS systems have been in the buzz. But mostly the high-end version of these tracking devices seems to be still out consumers. LandAirSea Systems renowned name in GPS tracking technologies brings this pocket-sized device named as the GPS Tracking Key. But hey! This isn’t your ordinary GPS trackers. It receives signals from 24 Department of Defense satellites orbiting the earth.
It is just slightly bigger then a cigarette lighter & works on two AAA batteries. Being water proof you don’t need to worry about it getting malfunctioned, so you can easily place it underneath a car, truck even humans etc. Also the powerful magnet won’t let it fall of from any place you stick it….but make sure its iron….ha ha.

We all are accustomed to opening up Task manager atleast a few times every day to shutdown un-responding tasks, or to checkup on which programs are eating up a lot of memory. But i don’t like bashing my keyboard’s Ctrl+Alt+Del keys every now and then. I’m sure you’ll love this tiny little app called Task Killer, forget Ctrl+Alt+Del.

With all the daily surfing that i go through, i find it really frustrating to go trough endless scores of windows. This mostly happened due to click happy fingers clicking on just about any link it comes across. Hey what can i do if someone disguise a MLM or porn site with a what it seems to be a shopping or informative link.
