You’ve read the reviews and digested the key feature enhancements and operational changes. Now it’s time to delve a bit deeper and uncover some of Windows XP’s secrets.

1. 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).

2. You can delete files immediately, without having them move to the Recycle Bin first. Go to the Start menu, select Run… and type ‘gpedit.msc’; then select User Configuration, Administrative Templates, Windows Components, Windows Explorer and find the Do not move deleted files to the Recycle Bin setting. Set it. Poking around in gpedit will reveal a great many interface and system options, but take care — some may stop your computer behaving as you wish. (Professional Edition only).

3. 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 the same.

4. XP hides some system software you might want to remove, such as Windows Messenger, but you can tickle it and make it disgorge everything. Using Notepad or Edit, edit the text file /windows/inf/sysoc.inf, search for the word ‘hide’ and remove it. You can then go to the Add or Remove Programs in the Control Panel, select Add/Remove Windows Components and there will be your prey, exposed and vulnerable.

5. For those skilled in the art of DOS batch files, XP has a number of interesting new commands. These include ‘eventcreate’ and ‘eventtriggers’ for creating and watching system events, ‘typeperf’ for monitoring performance of various subsystems, and ’schtasks’ for handling scheduled tasks. As usual, typing the command name followed by /? will give a list of options — they’re all far too baroque to go into here.

6. XP has IP version 6 support — the next generation of IP. Unfortunately this is more than your ISP has, so you can only experiment with this on your LAN. Type ‘ipv6 install’ into Run… (it’s OK, it won’t ruin your existing network setup) and then ‘ipv6 /?’ at the command line to find out more. If you don’t know what IPv6 is, don’t worry and don’t bother.

7. You can at last get rid of tasks on the computer from the command line by using ‘taskkill /pid’ and the task number, or just ‘tskill’ and the process number. Find that out by typing ‘tasklist’, which will also tell you a lot about what’s going on in your system.

8. XP will treat Zip files like folders, which is nice if you’ve got a fast machine. On slower machines, you can make XP leave zip files well alone by typing ‘regsvr32 /u zipfldr.dll’ at the command line. If you change your mind later, you can put things back as they were by typing ‘regsvr32 zipfldr.dll’.

9. XP has ClearType — Microsoft’s anti-aliasing font display technology — but doesn’t have it enabled by default. It’s well worth trying, especially if you were there for DOS and all those years of staring at a screen have given you the eyes of an astigmatic bat. To enable ClearType, right click on the desktop, select Properties, Appearance, Effects, select ClearType from the second drop-down menu and enable the selection. Expect best results on laptop displays. If you want to use ClearType on the Welcome login screen as well, set the registry entry HKEY_USERS/.DEFAULT/Control Panel/Desktop/FontSmoothingType to 2.

10. You can use Remote Assistance to help a friend who’s using network address translation (NAT) on a home network, but not automatically. Get your pal to email you a Remote Assistance invitation and edit the file. Under the RCTICKET attribute will be a NAT IP address, like 192.168.1.10. Replace this with your chum’s real IP address — they can find this out by going to
Code:

http://www.whatismyip.com

— and get them to make sure that they’ve got port 3389 open on their firewall and forwarded to the errant computer.

11. You can run a program as a different user without logging out and back in again. Right click the icon, select Run As… and enter the user name and password you want to use. This only applies for that run. The trick is particularly useful if you need to have administrative permissions to install a program, which many require. Note that you can have some fun by running programs multiple times on the same system as different users, but this can have unforeseen effects.

12. Windows XP can be very insistent about you checking for auto updates, registering a Passport, using Windows Messenger and so on. After a while, the nagging goes away, but if you feel you might slip the bonds of sanity before that point, run Regedit, go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Microsoft/Windows/Current Version/Explorer/Advanced and create a DWORD value called EnableBalloonTips with a value of 0.

13. You can start up without needing to enter a user name or password. Select Run… from the start menu and type ‘control userpasswords2′, which will open the user accounts application. On the Users tab, clear the box for Users Must Enter A User Name And Password To Use This Computer, and click on OK. An Automatically Log On dialog box will appear; enter the user name and password for the account you want to use.

Private Character Editor
There is an accessory program called the Private Character Editor included with Windows XP that is quite obscure and little-known. It is used in conjunction with the Character Map and provides a way to create your own fonts or logos.

How to open?
To open the program, go to Start-Run and enter : eudcedit

iExpress
IExpress is a technology designed to simplify creation of a setup program. Using the step-by-step IExpress Wizard, you can create self-extracting files that automatically run the setup program contained inside. IExpress technology automatically removes the setup files after installation, saving the user time and frustration. So now you know how to create your own installers !

How to open?
To open the program, go to Start-Run and enter : iexpress

Dr. Watson
Dr. Watson for Windows is a program error debugger. The information obtained and logged by Dr. Watson is the information needed by technical support groups to diagnose a program error for a computer running Windows. A text file (Drwtsn32.log) is created whenever an error is detected or a program crashes, and can be delivered to support personnel by the method they prefer. You also have the option of creating a crash dump file, which is a binary file that a programmer can load into a debugger.

How to open?
To open the program, go to Start-Run and enter : drwtsn32

Media Player 5.1
Yes Media Player 5. You probably have Windows Media PLayer 10 or 11 installed but the fact is even if you upgrade your media player, version 5.1 will remain on your system.

How to open?
To open the program, go to Start-Run and enter : mplay32

Product Description
Algorithms and Networking for Computer Games is an essential guide to solving the algorithmic and networking problems of modern commercial computer games, written from the perspective of a computer scientist. Combining algorithmic knowledge and game-related problems, the authors discuss all the common difficulties encountered in game programming.
The first part of the book tackles algorithmic problems by presenting how they can be solved practically. As well as “classical” topics such as random numbers, tournaments and game trees, the authors focus on how to find a path in, create the terrain of, and make decisions in the game world. Part two introduces networking related problems in computer games and focuses on three key questions: how to hide the inherent communication delay, how to utilize limited network resources, and how to cope with cheating.
Algorithms and Networking for Computer Games provides a comprehensive resource that offers deeper algorithmic insight into game programming and explains game-specific network considerations. Read on for…

• Algorithmic solutions in pseudo code format, which not only emphasizes the idea behind the solution, but also can easily be written into the programming language of your choice.
• A section on the Synthetic player, covering decision-making, influence maps, finite-state machines, flocking, fuzzy sets and probabilistic reasoning.
• In-depth treatment of network communication including dead reckoning, local perception filters and cheating prevention.
• 51 ready-to-use algorithms and 178 illustrative exercises.

Algorithms and Networking for Computer Games is a must-read text for advanced undergraduate and graduate students on computer game-related courses, postgraduate researchers in game-related topics, and game developers interested in new approaches and the theoretical background to games.

Microsoft continues to tease us with a RC release of the upcoming operating system in the Windows franchise, Windows 7, which was released for public earlier this month on May 5th.
We have seen many Windows 7 transformation packs for XP and Vista but one for Linux is new to me. But unfortunately, it’s not for Ubuntu.


A designer, rmtux1345, at KDE-Looks.org have created a transformation pack that transforms your Kubuntu 9.04 into Windows 7. This guy here has worked pretty well in giving the maximum Windows 7 look and feel in Linux. Apart from looks, this pack also claims to make your Kubuntu work like Windows 7 in some areas.
Vistar7 includes Windows 7 official wallpapers plus the ones included in beta release, user pictures, icons, all Windows 7 sound theme files splash screens and three popular fonts from Microsoft.

rmtux1345 provides no support, updates or bug fixes for this transformation pack now. It was just created to show how similar Windows 7 interface  is with KDE4.

Download Vistar7 Transformation Pack

To download and for more information regarding installation, you can do it from here: Download Vistar7 Transformation Pack

Description:
****************Vistar7 Transformation Pack for Kubuntu Jaunty****************
*******************Vistar7 - Because Vi is the real star;-)*******************

************* ATTENTION! *************
Please! Help spread the word! Write about this transformation pack
on forums, desktop customization sites, blog about it, digg it etc.
And please, please, seed!
Mirrors are also welcome
**************************************

Vistar7 Transformation Pack makes Kubuntu Jaunty 9.04 looks and in some
areas works like Windows 7.
This transformation pack is for private use only! It was made purely for
educational purposes. It's a proof of concept, showing how flexible is KDE4
and that Windows7 interface is really similar to KDE4.
It is NOT RECOMMENDED FOR DAILY USE because it comes with absolutely
no support, updates, fixes etc.
You are on your own with all problems concerning this transformation pack.
Tested on fresh Kubuntu Jaunty 9.04.

It was nice to work on this pack, but I believe that original KDE4 is better:).

Typing DOS commands on the Windows Command Line prompt is a most efficient and faster way of doing things in Windows XP. Here's a run-down of the most useful DOS commands available in Windows XP. Some of these DOS commands even do not have an visual alternative.

DOS Command-line tools must be run at the prompt of the Cmd.exe command interpreter. To open Command Prompt, click Start, click Run, type cmd, and then click OK.

ipconfig - Windows IP configuration
Useful for troubleshooting your internet connection.Displays the current IP address of your computer and the DNS server address. If you call your ISP for reporting a bad internet connection, he will probably ask you to run ipconfig.

fc - Free BeyondCompare in XP
FC is an advanced DOS Command that compares two files and displays the differences between them. Though the file comparison results are not as interactive as BeyondCompare or Altova DiffDog, fc is still very useful. You can even set fc to resynchronize the files after finding a mismatch.

type - open text files sans Notepad
Similar to Unix cat command, Type is my favorite DOS command for displaying the contents of a text files without modifying them. When used in combination with more switch, type splits the contents of lengthy text files into multiple pages. Avoid using the type command with binary files or you'll hear alien PC beeps and see some greek characters on your PC.

ping - Say hello to another Computer
Ping network command followed by the web-address or IP address tells you about the health of the connection and whether the other party is responding to your handshake request. Ping tool can also be used to convert the web address to a physical IP address.

tree - visual directory structure
You often need to take prints of your physical directory structure but XP has no simple "visual" commands for printing directory contents. Here, try the Tree DOS command and redirect the output to a text file.

tree > mydirectory.txt
print mydirectory.txt

attrib - make hidden files visible
Attrib lets you change attributes of System files and even hidden files. This is great for troubleshooting Windows XP. Say your XP doesn't boot ever since you edited that startup boot.ini file (Hidden), use attrib to remove the Hidden attibute and edit the file using EDIT dos command.

assoc - which program will open that .xyz file
The assoc DOS command can be used to either isplay or even modify the file name extension associations. The command assoc .htm will quickly tell you the name of your default web browser (see picture)

move - more flexible than copy-paste
Say you got a lot of XLS and DOC files in you MyDocuments folder and want to move only those XLS files that have their name ending with 2006. In XP Explorer, you have to manually select each file and then cut-paste to another folder. However, the DOS move command make things much simpler. Just type the following at the command prompt:
move *2006.xls c:\2006Reports\

find - advanced file search with filter
Find is the most powerful DOS command and even more useful than the Windows Desktop Search tool or the Windows Find Wizard. The find command searches for a specific string of text in a file or files. After searching the specified file or files, find displays any lines of text that contain the specified string.

To search your hard disk to find and display the file names on drive C: that contain the string "Google" use the pipe (|) to direct the results of a dir command to find as follows:
dir c:\ /s /b | find "Google"

Quick tip - Drag to avoid typing: When your command acts on a file or folder, you must type the path to that folder after the command. You can save typing time by dragging the file or folder from Windows Explorer
into the command window.

To view help at the command-line, at the command prompt, type the following:
CommandName /?

When asked to most of the users “How will you uninstall Linux when it is Dual Boot installed with Windows XP/Vista/7 ?” The common answers we got was “Start Windows XP/Vista/7 and format Linux Partition“. Well they were half correct, you do have to format the Linux  partition but what about the grub loader? The grub loader will still be showing you the option to boot Linux during the start up and by mistake if anybody goes for booting Linux, the system will not find any Linux on your machine and it will restart. so what can you do in this situation?

There is a simple procedure to uninstall or delete Linux completely and safely by following a step by step procedure illustrated below and it is tested by me .

Requirements:
You need a Windows XP/Vista/7 startup disk or Windows XP(verified with XP only) bootable floppy .

How to do it:

1. Boot up in Windows XP/Vista/7.

2. Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management

(UAC or User Account Control in Vista/7)

3. Go to Disk Management under “Storage”

4. Select your Hard Disk and then the Linux partition.

5. Delete the Linux partition this will delete Linux and grub.

6. Now reboot your Laptop/Desktop with Windows XP start up disc or floppy and type the command “fixmbr” .

7. Above command will repair ur bootloader and rewrite ntldr which will replace corrupted grub.

8. Thats it done now boot your Laptop or Desktop normally it will be booted by default in Windows XP/Vista/7.

In this tutor we guide you, how to allow Windows 7 and Windows Vista Based systems to Enable and test the remote desktop systems.


Though the facility exists in these operating systems it is disabled in it by default(Vista buisness and enterprise editions are exceptions). The procedure to enable in both 7 and Vista are same.


Step by step procedure to Enable Remote Desktop

Step 1. Right-click Computer in the Start menu and then select Properties.


Step 2. Click Remote settings in the Tasks list on the left side of the System window.


Step 3. Select Allow connections from computers running any version of Remote Desktop if computers connecting to it will only be from within a local network or are running versions of Windows other than 7 or Vista.


Note: Here select Allow connections only from computers running Remote Desktop with Network Level Authentication if computers connecting to it will connect from the internet or all computers connecting will be Windows 7/Vista.


Step 4. Click OK to save your changes.


Note: If you’re using the Windows Vista firewall, Remote Desktop will automatically be allowed through it. If you’re using another firewall, you’ll need to open port 3389 to allow Remote Desktop connections.


Selecting Remote Desktop Users


If you have a user account(s) that do not have administrative credentials and you want to use to log in when connecting with Remote Desktop, follow these instructions.


Note: All user accounts with administrative rights are automatically allowed to log in using Remote Desktop.


1. Open the Remote tab in the System Properties window (see instructions above).


2. Click the Select Users button in the Remote tab of the System Properties window.


3. Click Add in the Remote Desktop Users window.


4. Click the Advanced button in the Select Users window.


5. Click the Find Now button.


6. Select the user you want to add to the list of users able to log in with Remote Desktop and then click OK.


7. Click OK in the Select Users window.


Note: Make sure the user you’ve just added is in the object names box.


8. Click OK in the Remote Desktop Users window.


9. Click OK in the System Properties window.

Rotating Background Image

If you have more than 1 background image that you want to use, the steps for having the random background images upon each page refresh are about the same as above. Create the images, host them on a free server, and take note of the Image URLs. Next, login to your Dashboard. Go to Template ->Page Elements -> Add a Page Element and choose “HTML/JavaScript”. The javascript to insert is this:


<script type="text/javascript">
var banner= new Array()
banner[0]="Image01URL"
banner[1]="Image02URL"
banner[2]="Image03URL"
banner[3]="Image04URL"
banner[4]="Image05URL"
banner[5]="Image06URL"
banner[6]="Image07URL"
banner[7]="Image08URL"
banner[8]="Image09URL"
banner[9]="Image10URL"
var random=Math.floor(10*Math.random());
document.write("<style>");
document.write("body {");
document.write(' background:url("' + banner[random] + '") repeat center center;');
document.write(" }");
document.write("</style>");
</script>


Rotating Header Image

Login to your Dashboard. Go to Template -&gt;Page Elements -&gt; Add a Page Element and choose “HTML/JavaScript”. The javascript to insert is this:


<script type="text/javascript">
var banner= new Array()
banner[0]="Image01URL"
banner[1]="Image02URL"
banner[2]="Image03URL"
banner[3]="Image04URL"
banner[4]="Image05URL"
banner[5]="Image06URL"
banner[6]="Image07URL"
banner[7]="Image08URL"
banner[8]="Image09URL"
banner[9]="Image10URL"
var random=Math.floor(10*Math.random());
document.write("<style>");
document.write("#header {");
document.write(' background:url("' + banner[random] + '") no-repeat top left;');
document.write(" }");
document.write("</style>");
</script>
Explanatory notes:-

1. The Image01URL to Image10URL are the links to the images that are hosted on the image server. Please insert the full URL beginning with http://

2. This uses a Math object javascript. The random() code will give a random number between 0 and 1. This number is multiplied by 10 and the floor code rounds the number downwards to the nearest integer, giving a value between 0 and 9. At every pageload, the script will display one of the banners from banner[0] to banner[9].

3. The above example assumes you have 10 different images to display. If you have fewer pictures, say 5 pictures, delete banner[5] to banner[9] and amend the number (in red) to 5. If you have more images, you may add banner[10] up to whatever number of images you have, and amend the number (in red) accordingly.

Steps:
1. Pick a new jpg picture and rename it to A.jpg
2. Make a new .rar or .zip folder on your desktop. example A.rar
3. Add the files you want to hide into the .zip or .rar. example add katzy.txt to A.rar
4. Click start menu, run, cmd.
5. In Command Prompt type cd "desktop" with the quotation marks.
6. Now type in copy /b A.jpg + A.rar B.jpg
( If you use .zip then: copy /b A.jpg + A.zip B.jpg)
7. Now there should be the outputed file name  B.jpg. DONE
(if you wanna cek just rename B.jpg to B.rar)
Now you're done!
A quick info-fact:
With this technique of hiding files in a jpg you can send this to anyone and they just have to rename the file extension to .zip or .rar.
With this technique the Al-Qaeda operatives were able to send info to others secretively.

this is example:


save it, right click,  rename to b.rar and open with winrar
or
download example here
http://katzy.do.am/Download/b.jpg

Good luck it contain katzy.txt inside pic
