Moving tipsIt is important to book your moving services well ahead to secure your ideal moving date.

Important documents and possessions, such as wills, deeds, jewelry, photographs and home videos are impossible to replace. It’s wise to consider moving these and other important belongings to a safety deposit box while you move.

Remember to contact your local post office and fill-out forwarding address forms. Additionally, leaving a small welcome card with your forwarding address for the people moving into your old home is a nice way of asking for any additional pieces of your mail to be redirected.

Do not have your phone disconnected until after loading day.

DON’T polish your furniture! This makes the furniture slippery for the movers or yourself, also when we wrap pads around the furniture it can leave marks on the furniture where the pad was placed, do to buildup of cleaning residue!

Reserve ample parking for the truck. If parking is to be on a city street, it is your obligation to tell the movers of any meters that need to be capped by the city. In the winter, be sure to have the parking area and walkways clear of snow and ice.

Prepare an “Unload First” carton with essentials that you’ll need immediately at your new home (Essential Items). Include a bag filled with hardware from disassembled items, such as dresser mirrors and beds.

Try to keep boxes to 50 pounds or less and always lift with your legs. Tape the bottom of all boxes to make certain they will hold your belongings.

Pack books flat, not standing on end (which may cause damage to the spines). Books are extremely heavy, so don’t pack too many in one box.

Windows Vista Tips: Disable Data Execution Prevention

Filed Under ( Hacks, Technology, Tips, Tutorial, Windows Secret ) by admin on 02-09-2009

Tagged Under : , , , , ,

Data Execution Prevention is a relatively new technology in Windows that performs some additional memory checks to help prevent malicious code from being executed on a PC.

This is generally excellent news for PC users, as it can prevent many viruses and malware from being run (even if a virus scanner misses them). However, it can also prevent legitimate applications from running if they execute code in a forbidden way.

Unless you have a specific problem with DEP, it wouldn’t be recommended to disable this useful feature.

To disable DEP completely, launch the command prompt in administrator mode by typing CMD into the start menu and pressing CTRL + SHIFT + ENTER:

Dos

Once the command prompt has loaded, type the following command and then press Enter:

bcdedit.exe /set {current} nx AlwaysOff

Start Menu

You can then close the command prompt window, and DEP will be disabled. Should you wish to re-enable Data Execution Prevention follow the same method but run the following command:

bcdedit.exe /set {current} nx OptIn

If you are a power user, it is quite likely that you miss the “Run” menu from every previous version of Windows. Although most people won?t miss this is very handy to quickly run applications without loading up items on your start menu.

Right Click on the Start Menu > Properties > Start Menu Tab > Customise > Check “Run Command”

Run

Alternatively, you can use the shortcut key of Windows Key + R each time you need it.

Windows Vista Tips: Unidentified Network

Windows Vista can sometimes cause network adapters to show up as connected to an “Unidentified Network”, sometimes limiting the network to local access only.

Local Area Connection

There are many reasons that can cause this problem, but some suggested solutions to try are:

  • Reset your Router using the web control panel.
  • Update your network adapter drivers.
  • Temporary disable any Anti-Virus/Firewall package to see if the problem is resolved.
  • Try assigning a static IP address to the network card.
  • Disable IPv6 on old network cards / routers.

These suggestions may help you narrow down the cause of the “unidentified network” problem.

Workgroups are an easy way of grouping a collection of network PCs (for example, all of the computers in your house could be one). When you get your PC you may find that it is already of a workgroup and want to change it, or perhaps you need to join a new workgroup.

To start this process, press WINDOWS KEY + PAUSE/BREAK to load up the System information window. Then click Change Settings under the Computer Name, Description and Workgroup settings menu:

System and Maintenance

Then, click Change:

System Properties

Now type in your new workgroup into the appropriate box and then click OK:

Computer Name/Domain Change

You are now a member of the new workgroup and should be visible to other networked PC’s.

Windows Vista Tips: Printer Sharing

Many people will have a network of computers, with a central printer connected to only a single PC. It is easy to share this printer with user networked computers, allowing everyone in your workgroup to print directly.

First of all, you need to enable printer sharing on the host PC (the one with the printer directly attached). This allows other PCs to see the shared printer and connect to it via the host computer. To do this, open the Control Panel by clicking on the Start Menu > Control Panel:

Start Menu->Control Panel

Then, click View Network Status and Tasks:

Control Panel

If printer sharing is disabled, click the button next to Printer Sharing, then Turn on Printer Sharing and click Apply:

Network and Sharing Center

Printer sharing is now enabled on the host computer, allowing access to the connected printers (as long as a username/password from that PC is used).

On the PC you wish to grant access to the printer, browse the network from the host PC to view the printer listing. Once you have found the shared printer you wish to use, right click on it and select Connect:

Network->Printers

It may require a username and password from the host computer, if so type these details in. Windows should now install the required drivers and add access to the shared printer, allowing you to print from any application.
