Computer CMOS Error How to fix it


 The most common cmos error that every pc will get is that "cmos checksum error press F1 to continue".
 Whenever you get this error message don't be afraid its just the problem with the CMOS battery that is located on the motherboard. When the CMOS battery on the Motherboard is not working this is the error message you will get when you turn on your Computer.And another problem with the CMOS battery you will find is that when your system loads into windows you will no be able to set the correct time on the taskbar corner. Even if you set the correct time in the windows it will not be saved and it will show some other time rather than the current time. This is because CMOS battery is used to save the date and time of the Computer.

Solution : Replacing the CMOS battery will definitely solve the problem and you will not be asked to press F1 every time when you turn on your computer.

Awesome Computer Tricks That You May Have Never Seen Before

Many of you may have probably seen these computer tricks before but I’m hoping that there are still some who’ll be amazed with what I’m going to show you. These are some of the most popular and really amazing computer tricks that I collected from the internet. I know you’re excited to see these tricks so I’m going to show it to you now. Check this out:

For Windows PC users:
1. What’s with the word “CON”?
  • Try to create a folder anywhere you like (i.e. desktop, my documents).
  • Rename the folder with CON and see what will happen.
  • Try to rename other files (i.e. images, documents) with CON. Still, it doesn’t change right?
2. What’s up with “BUSH”?
  • Open your notepad.
  • Type “Bush hid the facts” without the “ “.
  • Save it and open it again.
3. Test the strength of your anti-virus
  • Do you want to know if your anti-virus is really protecting your PC? Open your notepad and copy-paste this code “X50!P%@AP[4\PZX54(P^)7CC)7}EICAR-STANDARD-ANTIVIRUS-TEST-FILE!$H+H*” without “”.
  • Save the file as eicar.com. If your anti-virus is really protecting your PC, it will warn you about this “virus tester”.
NOTE: This isn’t harmful to your PC. This is just a simple test to check if your anti-virus can detect virus.

    How to Pin a drive to the taskbar in Windows 7

    The taskbar isn't just for apps and documents. With just a few seconds work you can pin drive icons there, too.

    Right-click an empty part of the desktop, select New > Text File, and rename the file to drive.exe. Drag and drop this onto your taskbar, then delete the original file.

    Right-click your new "drive.exe" taskbar button, then right-click its file name and select Properties. Change the contents of both the Target and Start In boxes to point at the drive or folder of your choice, perhaps click Change Icon to choose an appropriate drive icon, and you're done - that drive or folder is now available at a click.
