The user always remains anxious about how much battery is left and how much work can be done on the laptop.<br /><br /><a href="http://windows7.iyogi.net/"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Windows 7</span></a> provides the solution to it. Battcursor feature in the latest Windows 7 feature keeps the track of the battery life and keep the user aware of the battery status. Its power saving functions are quite impressive. Though it is a little program but offers many useful features.<br /><br />The tool includes indicator to the cursor. The cursor itself turns into a floating battery meter and whenever the battery power is low, the percentage and the visual indicator will be displayed. Aero Glass style feature allows you to set BattCursor to show Windows title bar which itself alters the color to warn you when your battery is low.<br /><br />The title bars will give the blue color if the battery is full or nearly full and if your laptop is running out of battery the spectrum will shift to the warning colors. By default it displays yellow for low and red for critical. You can also modify the colors and activate the Power profiles as the battery diminishes.<br /><br />To keep the user aware, BattCursor also shows the current charge level. It also allows you to disable the Aero Glass and Windows Sidebar when certain level is attained by the battery to extract more life out of the battery. Power Profiles in <a href="http://windows7.iyogi.net/insight-series-windows-7-features-applications"><span style="font-weight: bold;">Windows 7 feature</span></a> can be automatically switched with the BattCursor. Once you enable the function, at the<br /><br />specified charge level your system will be changed from high performance to balanced to power saver.Jonhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10782970430368699644noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5334564266551310.post-67506177083674221422009-10-22T03:07:00.001-07:002009-10-22T03:09:06.554-07:00Boot Windows 7 in just under 10 seconds<div style="text-align: left;">Great success is achieved by Microsoft by reducing the boot timing for its latest operating system, <a style="font-weight: bold;" href="http://windows7.iyogi.net/">Windows 7</a>, to only 10 seconds.<br /><br />This is amazing, considering the fact that the BIOS has to turn on everything in the system from the CPU to hard drive, before the<br /><br />OS begins to load.<br /><br />Windows 7 has achieved this feat of extremely low boot time by using a healthy hardware configuration. Moreover, most of the<br /><br />hardware manufacturing firms are paying more attention on cutting the boot time.<br /><br />For example the Lenovo Group Ltd is making some remarkable changes like:<br /><br /> * Helps to prevent the BIOS phase from the loading of driver.<br /> * Fixing the drivers of on-board hardware components that were cumulatively causing massive delays.<br /> * Avoiding the loading of unessential application being included in the Startup programs. Using msconfig to disable stuff that<br /><br />runs on startup<br /><br />Dell, Toshiba and HP are also on course to follow the same trend.<br /><br />Windows 7 version works extremely good even in the case of multiple <a href="http://windows7.iyogi.net/insight-series-windows-7-features-desktop"><span style="font-weight: bold;">operating systems</span></a> . If your hard disk has ample space then you<br /><br />can create a partition and dual boot your system. When you will turn on your computer, it will ask you about the option of OS.<br /><br />If you wish to improve the boot processing then Windows 7 offers you some ultimate tools as mentioned below:<br /><br /> * Defragmenter should be used frequently.<br /> * Defragment your Windows page file and registry as well.<br /> * Check your hard drive from the temporary files frequently.<br /> * Load up Windows faster by using Startup Delayer a free program that will speed up the boot time of Windows by delaying the<br /><br />startup of programs.<br /> * MSCONFIG will help you keep a check on many of useless Startup programs.<br /> * Use a program click memtest86 or Prime95 to check bad memories on your PC.<br /> * Do check your BIOS version, if required update it.<br /> * Run chkdisk to remove bad sectors in hard drive.<br /></div>Jonhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10782970430368699644noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5334564266551310.post-9588514137477685592009-08-25T03:21:00.000-07:002009-08-25T03:30:59.884-07:00How to Export Your Outlook Calendar<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.iyogi.net/email-troubleshooting.html"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 390px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_okTG0_czveI/SpO9MptchII/AAAAAAAAA7A/9NchOF35Rvc/s400/outlook_calendar.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5373846805435679874" border="0" /></a><br />Have events in your calendar at work, but want to bring those same events home, for outlook at home.

(You can store this copy of the Outlook Express folder in a location other than the Documents folder, as long as you remember where to find it.)

Improvements to the program's most anticipated, native support for PDF, ODF, XPS and increased speed of execution for Outlook. <br /><br />The release of Service Pack 2 of Office 2007 does not cause as much excitement as the Release Candidate of Windows 7, it does not mean least important. Microsoft is working on for over a year and has made significant fixes to security on the one hand, but for performance and compatibility. <br /><br />First improvement in long, native support of the open source OpenDocument format in Excel Format (. Ods), PowerPoint (. ODP) and Word (. Odt). In the same spirit, the PDF and XPS are also borne of origin. The inclusion of plug-ins. A turning point for Microsoft is to open direct competitors, such as Acrobat and OpenOffice.org.<br /><br />Outlook has also benefited from a series of improvements. According to Microsoft, SP2 would provide 26% extra speed at the start and closure and for common tasks. <br /><br /> Available by download or via Windows Update soon, SP2 weighs 304 MBJonhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10782970430368699644noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5334564266551310.post-35126500759613830322009-05-29T06:57:00.000-07:002009-05-29T06:58:07.496-07:00Outlook and Slow HTMLIt's amazing how often a seemingly innocent action by the user and an update for a program can affect negatively another. Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer, released in mid-May. After installing that update, Outlook 2003 responds very slowly when typing HTML messages. <br /><br />The problem in this case is two-fold. First, users either added a large number of sites to IE's restricted zone or installed a "security" application that added them. The cumulative security update then changed the way the Internet Explorer 7 rendering engine interacts with the Restricted Sites zone and this change causes Outlook to pause after each keystroke while the IE7 rendering engine checked the sites in the zone. <br />The user has several options to fix this issue:<br />1.Remove the security update. <br />2.Switch to plain text formatted messages. Using RTF message format will fix the problem but should only be used when all of your recipients use Outlook. <br />3.Remove all of the unnecessary sites from the Restricted zone. <br />4.Use Word as the email editor. <br />Of these options, removing the security update should be the last resort. Editing out the chaff in the Restricted zone would be my first choice since too many users load it with sites they are unlikely to ever come across and which may no longer be "live". I'm a big fan of short blocked or restricted lists and long safe lists, so I would tighten the Internet zone and use the Trusted zone for the sites I visited often. <br /><br />The advantages of using short restricted lists and longer safe lists is that too often the restricted address is only in use for a limited time before the webhost shuts it down. In the case of email addresses, so many spammers fake the sending address or only use them once. In either case, the software reads the list as needed, which slows down the response for the very few times it hits a valid entry. Safe lists, while long, are still much shorter than blocking every untrusted address in existence.Jonhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10782970430368699644noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5334564266551310.post-30688093991241055762009-05-14T02:17:00.001-07:002009-05-14T02:17:56.829-07:00iYogi Acquires Clean Machine Inc.<h2>Larry Gordon, Founder of Clean Machine appointed as President Global Channel Sales at iYogi</h2><br /><strong>New York, NY, May 11th, 2009 :</strong> iYogi, a global direct to consumer and small business remote <a title="Computer Technical Support" href="http://www.iyogi.net/">technical support</a> provider, today announced it’s acquisition of <strong>Clean Machine Inc</strong>, a provider of remotely administered PC security and performance management services.

If you are like most people, who like to start their day with a hot steaming cup of coffee looking through morning mail, you sure can imagine how frustrating it can be to lose your important messages and contacts.<br />There are several reasons why you can lose your email. First of all, you can lose your Outlook messages as a result of hardware failure. Secondly, there can be a disaster like flood or fire, which is hard to prevent so it is strongly recommended to back up Outlook/Outlook Express to secure against the temperament of nature.<br />A far more frustrating occurrence of message loss is an accidental deletion by the owner. There is no way to prevent such things, but there are several ways to make sure you do not lose your data, if you get in any of the above mentioned situations.<br />One ways is to copy your contacts and messages manually each day and record them to some storage media such as a CD. This is a viable solution and it is the cheapest in terms of money, but not time. It is going to be hard to keep track of all incoming and out coming messages and not to forget to do Outlook backup regularly.<br />However, with the simple yet reliable Outlook backup software, you can immensely simplify the task of data protection. In fact, for a reasonable fee of 39 bucks you can get a professional backup program with the backup functionality which allows backing up your important messages on a specified schedule with the options of data compression and encryption.<br />When choosing your backup software, pay attention to the specific features of a program. Some backup programs offer Outlook backup functionality as a default feature, while others may require installation of special plug-ins for doing target backup of email. Also, make sure that the program can do backup of all versions, including backup of Outlook 2007.<br />The minimal feature set that you need to do quality Outlook backup includes automatic Outlook file search, automated task execution according to a minute accuracy schedule, data compression and encryption and a wide choice of storage media including flash drives, external hard drives, optical disks, FTP and online servers.Jonhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10782970430368699644noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5334564266551310.post-71682988649016880042008-08-31T22:25:00.001-07:002008-08-31T22:25:53.239-07:00iYogi Computer Repair, PC Repair Support Video<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><p><object height='350' width='425'><param value='http://youtube.com/v/6hrMXiBkdA0' name='movie'/><embed height='350' width='425' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' src='http://youtube.com/v/6hrMXiBkdA0'/></object></p></div>Jonhhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10782970430368699644noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5334564266551310.post-56473792291024276632008-08-28T04:03:00.000-07:002008-08-28T04:09:05.537-07:00Read and send messages in other languages with Outlook<style> <!-- /* Font Definitions */ @font-face {font-family:"Cambria Math";
