Fixing the Windows Bootloader by command line

If you have dual boot system like Windows xp and Windows 7 ,


After Repaired win xp  there will not showing windows 7 boot loader in your boot menu.

Because win xp  boot loader was overwrite win 7 boot loader.


Therefore install older O/S and have to Repair newer windows version Bootloader and can Add older windows path to that loarder.


While installing older version first and newer version after that. newer version windows (it is usefull for other O/S like Linux) will be replace newer boot loader and keep older boot loader for access older version.

But after repair or re install older version again. problem is arise...

To Repair that...


Put your Windows setup DVD or your System Repair Disc in the drive and restart your PC. 

 Assuming you’ve properly configured your BIOS to boot from CDs/DVDs before hard drives (or you can press DElL ,  F2 to go BIOS or press F8 before end up post test .

 While restart after set First Boot device as CD /DVD  you should get a prompt asking you to “Press any key to boot from the CD/DVD…


Insert Windows installation Disk DVD to DVD Rom

Ex: Windows 7 DVD

Press a key, while prompting Boot from CD ...

 and the CD will begin to load. 


After loaded Windows Installation setup

, you’ll see a dialog asking you want to Install Now, or in the lower left corner, an option to “Repair your Computer,” which you’ll want to click.

  If you’re using our recovery CDs, just go on to the next section. If you’re having problems booting from the CD pls follow instruction with your BIOS.After selecting your language, the recovery CD will scan for operating systems on your drive. 

Select the operating system to repair from the list displayed on the screen, then press next to continue. Depending on which version of the CD you’re using, you’ll see a welcome screen like the ones below:


pls select Repair


When running automatic process and showing it as fixed and restart. Don't Restart.



 pls select advance recovery tools or cancel.  After Display tools pls select Command Line.



Pls type the command

bootsect /nt60 c: /force /mbr

bcdboot c:\windows /s c:

What these commands do:

Writes a new mbr to c:
bootsect /nt60 c: /force /mbr
( command, /nt60 = use boot code that is compatible with BOOTMGR, / = force dismount, / = write mbr )
( bootsect does to touch mbr, it works on the selected drives…ahem….wait for it…bootsector)

Write a new bootloader to the C: drive
bcdboot c:\windows /s c:
( command, look in c:windows for files, copy files to c: (actually c:\windows\boot) )

If not Fixed pls type the drive that showing your DVD 

Ex:

D:

D is my DVD Rom (Win 7 DVD in the Drive.


You can confirm it by this picture . There are Boot Folder , Boot mgr and Setup.exe files and folders in the DVD.

you can type this command to fix boot loader.


D:\> D:\boot\bootsect.exe /nt60 all

You will see showing the Msg after run the command " Successful "


Restart the PC

 The Pc will boot in Windows 7 .

Now you can Add Windows Xp Boot line to Wi9ndows 7 Boot loader

Select RUN in Start Menu.

Type CMD


Right click on  CMD.Exe and press Run as Administrator

Type following Command

bcdedit /create {ntldr} /d "Windows XP"

if showing boot menu is already exit pls type bellow commnds

bcdedit /set {ntldr} device partition=D:

after that

bcdedit /set {ntldr} path \ntldr

after that

bcdedit /displayorder {ntldr} /addlast

Also you can use EasyBCD free software to add xp boot line


select Add Entry

select windows xp /2000/...

enable check box for Determine Drive automatically

and select ok

For dual-booting and other boot related projects I use EasyBCD.

I highly recommend you check out this FREE program.

Dual-booting as well as bcd backup and repair are just some of the things you can do.

Getting Better Battery Life from Your Smartphone

Getting Better Battery Life from Your Smartphone

 As technology continues to improve in the wireless industry, cell phones and tablets are doing much more in less time.  We have the ability to make payments, unlock applications through fingerprint scanners, and read barcodes from our mobile phones.  Take a guess at how many applications are available through all the app markets...over 1.7 billion!  So our phones have more functionality, access to more applications, transmit more data, have better processors, and run faster upload & download speeds, but one thing hasn’t improved – battery life.

As phone technology has developed at an amazing rate, battery life seems to have gotten worse.  My iPhone 5S battery seems to have about half the life of my iPhone 4, which I was using 4 years ago.  And compared to the flip-phone I used 8 years ago, where a full charge would last days, new 4G phone batteries can be dead after hours of heavy use.  This is no shocker, as phones are doing more and transmitting data at all times, but here are some tips to help save battery life when you need it.

  1. Set the “sleep mode” on your phone to 1-2 minutes.  When your phone’s screen is turned off, it’s using much less battery.

  2. Turn the backlight brightness down.  If the screens brightness is turned all the way up, you’re using more battery while your phone is turned on.

  3. Kill background apps when they’re not being used.  If you just were using Waze, the CNN app, or google maps, programs will continue to run in the background.  You can kill these apps after your done using them, and it will help to save on battery life.

  4. Perform backups at night, using wifi, when your phone is on the charger.  Backups through gmail, icloud, Verizon cloud, and backup assistant use a good amount of battery life, especially when it’s done on your service provider’s network.  Set automatic backups to run on wifi, and do them when you’re phone is normally on a charger (i.e. in the middle of the night).

  5. If you’re really in a pinch to conserve battery life, turn off wireless data for your applications.  Almost all aps transmit data, even when the applications are not open and being used.  You can turn off data to applications, or you limit the data to wifi.

  6. Don’t worry about waiting until your battery is dead to charge it.  Phone batteries are typically lithium-ion these days.  The old rule, waiting until your phone is dead to charge it, no longer applies.  It’s good to occasionally let it fully run down before charging it, but don’t worry about doing it every time.  If you expect to use your phone a lot, or you need as much battery as possible, fully charge it regardless of how much battery life you have left.

  7. If you’re in a remote area with bad coverage, turn off the data and cellular signals.  Your phone is going to spend a lot of effort and battery life trying to find a signal, and if the coverage is really bad, you probably won’t get a signal anyway.  Restrict the data and cellular signal, or put the phone in airplane mode, and you’ll have some battery life left when your back in service and need it.

  8. Things like GPS apps, streaming video, and streaming music will deplete your battery life quickly.  Anything that constantly relies on data transmission will use up the battery faster than normal.

  9. Choose the right phone.  If battery life is extremely important to you on a daily basis, look into phones that come with extended batteries.  Phone like the Droid Maxx, LG G2, and the HTC One Maxx all have larger stock batteries for better life.

  10.  Extended batteries and external chargers.  Aside from a few phones with internal batteries (i.e. iPhones and some Android devices), most phones have an extended battery which will provide longer battery life.  It is even possible to put en extended battery in an iPhone or android phone with an internal battery, although it’s a lot of work and it may void the manufacturing warranty.  In additional to extended batteries, you can purchase an external, portable battery pack. 

     

     These are very common and I use on all the time.  Anytime I travel, or know that I won't have access to a power source (car or home), I bring my portable charger with me.  They are small, have mulitple connection ports for different devices, and can fully charge a device 1-3 times depending on the portable charger.

Windows 8/8.1 How to refresh, reset, or restore your PC

How to refresh, reset, or restore your PC

If you're having problems with your PC, you can try to refresh, reset, or restore it. Refreshing your PC reinstalls Windows and keeps your personal files and settings. It also keeps the apps that came with your PC and the apps you installed from the Windows Store. Resetting your PC reinstalls Windows but deletes your files, settings, and apps—except for the apps that came with your PC. Restoring your PC is a way to undo recent system changes you've made.
If you want to back up and restore your personal files using File History, see Set up a drive for File History If you want to restart your PC, see Shut down (turn off), sleep, or hibernate your PC.

Before you start to refresh or reset your PC

In most cases, once you start to refresh or reset your PC, it’ll finish on its own. However, if Windows needs missing files, you’ll be asked to insert recovery media, which is typically on a DVD disc or thumb drive. If that happens, what you’ll need depends on your PC.
If your PC came with Windows 8.1 or Windows RT 8.1, you’ll need the discs or thumb drive that came with your PC. Check the info that came with your PC to see if your PC manufacturer provided these discs or media. In some cases, you might have created them when you first set up your PC.
If you upgraded your PC to Windows 8.1 or Windows RT 8.1 with a DVD, use that disc. If you don’t have Windows 8.1 or Windows RT 8.1 media, contact Microsoft Support.


To refresh your PC

  1. Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, tap Settings, and then tap Change PC settings.
    (If you're using a mouse, point to the upper-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer down, click Settings, and then click Change PC settings.)
  2. Tap or click Update and recovery, and then tap or click Recovery.
  3. Under Refresh your PC without affecting your files, tap or click Get started.
  4. Follow the instructions on the screen.

How send a large file free by internet

Send large files quickly and securely

 Hightail - formerly YouSendIt - is a cloud service that lets users send, receive, digitally sign and synchronize files. YouSendIt.com and YouSendIt Inc. were founded in 2004; the company renamed itself Hightail in 2013.

 The company's early focus was on helping users send files that were too large for email; in 2007 it started adding features and plug-ins for businesses in 2007. The service grew quickly, and the firm raised $49 million in funding between 2005 and 2010. The service can now be used via the web, a desktop client, mobile devices, or from within business applications with a Hightail plugin.

 When deadlines loom, meet them with ease

Send large files quickly to keep on track and on schedule. With a big deadline around the corner, you can't afford any bumps in the road. If you need to send large files, such as videos, photography and graphic-heavy presentations, email can let you down when crunch time hits.

Either that crucial file is larger than your permitted attachment size, or your client's system won't accept it and you receive the dreaded bounceback email. Alternatives like FTP systems are too complex, while paying $100 for a courier to deliver a flash drive is an expensive way of doing business.

Hightail is a simple solution for large file sharing that's quick, easy and secure. Simply upload the file to our secure servers and we'll email a link to your client or prospective customer that allows them to download it whenever they wish. That's an email with no large attachments, so you don't need to worry about bouncebacks. You can send large files without the stress.

Hightail's intuitive interface means it is easy to use and a five-minute introduction is usually all the training required. Large file sharing becomes a no-brainer. We also have an add-in for Microsoft Outlook that automatically kicks in whenever you attach a large file to an email, so when you send large files it's a seamless part of your daily workflow.

You're the one pulling the strings

Large file sharing with Hightail gives you speed and reliability without compromising on security. Files are securely encrypted in transit and storage, while security options like password protection, file tracking and expiration dates let you control who views your work.

Hightail's range of mobile apps lets you send large files and much more on your iPhone, iPad, Android and Windows 8 devices.

Enable Start Menu for Windows 8 and 8.1

StartIsBack is a great way to relieve your (and your users) Windows 8 pain. It returns Windows 8 a real fully featured start menu and start button, behaving exactly like the ones in Windows 7 and radically improves desktop usability and makes new Start screen clutter-free. StartIsBack is fully native lightweight zero-privileges program, cheap and fair, fast, stable and secure. StartIsBack+ is the all-new version of StartIsBack for Windows 8.1.

                             Genuine Windows Start Screen

 

                                  Startback Start Menu


What's cool in StartIsBack+?

New unique features:
- Everything at once. Hold down Windows key for half a second until search icon appears in the center of the screen; release it and have instant access to all your running apps, taskbar and charms or search bar at the same time from any app you use. Its a great multitasking helper which should be very useful for both tablet and classic PCs. You don't have to learn all keyboard shortcuts, run your mouse to the screen corners or perform awkward swipes. Just hold down Windows key on keyboard or double-tap Win logo on the tablet! (off by default)
- Taskbar on Start screen. You can set StartIsBack to always display taskbar on Start screen and greatly reduce Start screen stress!

Although this function appeared in SIB 2.1, it really shines in Windows 8.1 when you set your wallpaper for Start screen.

General:
- Start menu has been rebuilt from ground up. It no longer uses code present in explorer; but! No features were lost and actually has been improved with new features and many fixes for bugs present in original menu code. StartIsBack+ uses LESS resources than native menu!
- Start menu utilizes start menu "soul" left in Windows; it's fully compatible with Windows 7 / StartIsBack settings and policies
- StartIsBack+ does not require a process or service to run, comes with support / translation for all Windows languages (where MUI is available)
- StartIsBack+ is better suited for tablets and convertibles.

Start menu:
- Start menu has been rebuilt from ground up. Lot of Windows 7 menu bugs were fixed
- Items in right pane can be removed or tweaked in-place (hold shift with right-click)
- Items in right pane can be configured as menu for more items (like Connect To)
- You can add your own folders into right pane by drag & drop
- All Programs can show folders before items
- Start menu configuration is much more streamlined
- Start menu can be configured not to cover taskbar when it's placed on screen side

Start Apps (Modern apps) folder in All Programs:
- Higher-quality icons are used
- You can create a shortcut for Modern app from Start Apps folder directly via drag & drop
- You can uninstall Modern apps directly from context menu

Start button:
- StartIsBack+ provides start button for each taskbar
- StartIsBack+ uses built-in Windows 8.1 start button image (by default), but with different selection / animation effect to distinguish it

Skinning:
- Same skins included; Plain8 is the default
- Start menu is a full sheet of glass; without hacks
- Glass layer can be turned off totally; without hacks
- StartIsBack+ allows using msstyles from Windows 8 unaltered (you still need UxStyle or whatever)
- StartIsBack+ has built-in high contrast skin

Other changes:
- All screen edges but bottom-left are enabled by default
- Settings for bottom-left corner were removed
- F3 on desktop no longer launches desktop search
- StartIsBack+ settings for start menu are now stored in ..\StartIsBack registry key, not in …\Explorer\Advanced. Existing settings are migrated.
- StartIsBack+ is not yet optimized for screen readers

Fully translated: English, Russian, Brazilian Portuguese, European Portuguese, French, Danish, Greek, Italian, Turkish, Spanish, German, Polish, Czech, Croatian, Slovak, Finnish, Korean, Dutch, Norwegian, Serbian, Slovenian, Bangla, Hungarian, Swedish, Simplified Chinese, Indonesian, Arabic, Thai, Traditional Chinese, Farsi, Ukrainian, Lithuanian, Bulgarian, Latvian.
