S/W & H/W Tips & Tricks!

[c4ramesh]

Hi hubbers,
yesterday one of our hubbers, jben, had a problem with his laptop admin password. I did help him out (though the probs still presists). It then struck me it could be gr8 if we had a topic under which we can post tips & tricks for S/Ws ( any s/w, for ex: OS, utility S/W, application S/W) and H/Ws.
I will start it off.

# TIP 1: Getting Rid Of Win Xp's Error Reporting



If error reporting in XP is bugging you then turn it off.

When a system error occurs in XP, a little dialog box appears asking if you want to report the error to Microsoft. Click the message box to make it disappear. You don't have to report the error if you don't want to. But most of us find it really bugging and we want to get rid of it don't we? and on today's "S/W & H/W tips & Tricks" I will show you how to turn off the feature if you find it distracting.

To disable error reporting, follow these directions:

1. Right-click My Computer and choose Properties.

2. Click the Advanced tab on your System Properties dialog box.

3. Click the Error Reporting button on the Advanced tab.

4. Place a checkmark next to "Disable error reporting."

5. Leave the other radio button unchecked next to the text labeled, "But notify me when critical errors occur."

6. Click OK.

thats it! that bugging problem is gone! untill u get a critical error or if you have choosen to turn it back on.

which one Technology today or IT prof. but I think both are a little different. IT prof. is for IT professionals, its about prog. lang. isn't it? and technology today is also a bit different, its about current technology and not any tips and tricks.... tell me if you find any. we could make this as a continuation of that!
