Windows 7 is NOW free for a Year! Grab your copy of Windows 7 RC

May 6, 2009 and till June 2010, Microsoft is allowing free downloads of the Release Candidate version of Windows 7 to the public. As part of Microsoft's Customer Review Program, the RC version will be free to download and will be "available at least through June 30, 2009" with no limits on the number of downloads of product keys available, sites claim.

Windows 7 comes nearly three years after Windows Vista, which took five years for Microsoft to engineer but was regarded by some as underwhelming. Microsoft hasn't said when the final Windows 7 version will be released, although it's rumoured to be out before year's end, according to an Indian PC Magazine, PCWorld.in.

Microsoft warned it is not offering technical support for the Windows 7 release candidate, so those who install it are on their own. Users should be familiar with installing an operating system from scratch, formatting a hard drive and backing up data, among other skills, Microsoft advised.

In the Windows 7 release notes, Microsoft warns of several problems that haven't been resolved, including issues with its latest web browser, Internet Explorer 8 (IE8).

Debugging JavaScript with the developer tools in IE8 could throw up a warning that a website is not responding, but that warning can be ignored. Also, some web pages may have misaligned text or missing images. Microsoft recommends clicking on the "compatibility view" button on the address bar as a fix.

Windows XP users should back up their data and do a clean install of the Windows 7 release candidate. Here’s requirements for Windows 7 Ultimate: To run the 32-bit version of the release candidate, a computer should have a 1GHz or faster processor, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of hard disk space and a DirectX 9 graphics processor with WDDM (Windows Display Driver Model) 1.0 or higher driver. For the 64-bit version, Microsoft recommends a 1GHz or faster processor, 2GB of RAM, 20GB of hard disk space and a DirectX 9 graphics processor with WDDM 1.0 or higher driver. 

When Microsoft launched the beta version of its latest operating system in January this year, it revealed it would restrict the preview to the first 2.5 million users, which caused a stampede that brought the company's severs to their knees. Microsoft restarted the launch the next day after sorting out the mess and adding more bandwidth and servers. Later, Microsoft dropped the download limit and extended the time it would be available to a full month.

Update: FREE WINDOWS 7 TO END EARLY WITH SHUT DOWN
Microsoft has announced that the Windows 7 Release Candidate (RC) will automatically shut down on a regular basis months before the final public preview is due to expire next year. The software giant had previously promised that the Windows 7 RC, which is available now for free, would work until August 1, 2010. However, the company plans to take a heavy-handed approach to encouraging people to upgrade to the full retail version from next March.

NT warns of SMS Virus(SymbOS.Hatihati.A) in Your Mobile- Remove Mobile Viruses Now

Nepal Telecom has warned it’s mobile, both prepaid plus post post users to be alert of SMS Viruses in mobile handset or memory after discovering thousands of mobiles infected. It’s usually a Trojan horse/Worm named SymbOS.Hatihati.A (not a virus in fact) that effects Symbian OS common to most Nokia Mobiles and sends international SMS from your account balance without your permissions. Plus, you could be victimized on playing games that try to send user data to their servers.

The trojan, SymbOS.Hatihati.A is a pirated version of the anti-theft software Guardian v0.95 which contains a bad configuration file aimed at attacking and malfunctioning your handset memory configuration. The trojan horse resides at Mobile Memory and tries to send volumes of SMS (Short Messaging Service) automatically (without even displaying any text sent to users) to predefined numbers listed below:

• 3355713230
• 3203848325
• 3474935252
• 3207012810
• 3932590983
• 3396003964

Most of the trojans, viruses & malwares including this SymbOS.Hatihati.A resides in memory cards eg SD, MicroSD, HDSC, MMC, XD etc and spreads by automatically replicating to new devices, sends voluminous txt due to virulent configuration to the mobile handsets. This malware does not spread via sharing or transfer of SIM from one mobile phone to another, nor via Bluetooth or Infrared.

Please, refer to official NT website for following clauses:

• Check if your NT Pre-paid number or Post-paid number is infected
• Common symptoms of Hatihati.A malware infection
• Location of Hatihati.A malware icon in the mobile set

Microsoft Reveals Windows 7 XPM ‘XP Mode’- another plus point of Windows 7

Just after Microsoft announced the availability of their most awaited OS Windows-7, it’s time for another feature that would be much appreciated. It’s called XPM meaning XP Mode inside Windows 7 would be supposed to eliminate all flaws that were stuck with the failure OS Vista. The concept is based on Virtualization providing backward compatibility.

This will let users run applications designed for Windows XP in a virtual machine, this feature was highly missed by every user of Vista. Dubbed ‘Windows XP Mode', the add-on creates an XP virtual environment running under Virtual PC, Microsoft's client virtualisation technology, within Windows 7, said Scott Woodgate, the director of Windows enterprise and virtualization strategy.

New Bluetooth 3.0 devices to hit market later this year ‘09

The Bluetooth Special Interest Group (SIG) has recently announced the new Bluetooth 3.0 standard to boost wireless data transfer between devices to 24Mbps from the recent data transfer rate of just 3Mbps for Bluetooth 2.1 standards. In fact, the Bluetooth 3.0 specification is an update from the Bluetooth 2.1 protocol, which was adopted by the group in 2007.

A standards group has approved specifications for a new Bluetooth standard that speeds up wireless data transfers between devices like smart phones and laptops. Bluetooth is commonly used to pair mobile phones with wireless headsets for hands-free talking. It is also used to connect a mobile phone to a laptop to synchronize data or transfer multimedia files without using wires. Over 2 billion devices have shipped with Bluetooth built in, according to Bluetooth SIG report.

The adoption of the standard, and devices based on the Bluetooth 3.0 specification could ship later this year ‘09 or by early next year ‘10 near the holiday season. However, post specification adoption might delay the products on the market. The faster data transfers could lead to its adoption in a number consumer electronics devices beyond just mobile phones.

The Bluetooth SIG has expected Bluetooth 3.0 to make its way into PCs, mobile phones, camcorders, cameras, TVs, digital presenters - devices that consumers use to transfer large data files like those of video, photographs and even entire music libraries.

The standard enables faster data transfers while using less power, giving consumers improved responsiveness and better battery life in mobile devices. It also stabilizes connections between devices, ironing out kinks from earlier standards when connections broke after a device like a cell phone was placed in the pocket. The Bluetooth 3.0 radio is based on Wi-Fi standards, which enables better data throughput while delivers power-saving benefits for mobile devices. It uses short bursts of Wi-Fi to send data, after which the radio is shut off until it is needed again.

Microsoft ends Windows XP Support Ends formally

Microsoft will drop Windows XP out of mainstream support today, with the ageing OS moving into extended support as previously announced.

Microsoft's mainstream support, which is usually offered for only five years, actually ran for seven-and-a-half years because of Windows Vista's long delay. Two years ago, Microsoft also extended mainstream support for XP Home and XP Media Center until 2009, and the deadline for the follow-up phase, dubbed 'extended support', until 2014, to match the dates that had been set earlier for the business-grade XP Professional.

According to Microsoft, the transition from mainstream to extended support for Windows XP means that it will only provide paid support - on a per-incident basis, or through its various pre-paid support programmes - and will only offer non-security hotfixes for a fee, and then only to customers who have purchased the Extended Hotfix Support plan.

Microsoft will continue to generate free security updates for Windows XP, and release them via Windows Update, until April 8, 2014.

Windows XP's shift into the first phase of support retirement comes at a time when the operating system remains extraordinarily popular, especially among business users. According to a recent survey by Dimensional Research, 97 percent of the more than 1,100 IT professionals surveyed said that their companies and organisations are still running XP.

The move out of mainstream and into extended support also comes just days after a leaked Microsoft memorandum spelled out a relaxation of the rules for computer makers that want to continue selling new PCs with the aged OS.

OEMs will be allowed to advertise new systems as XP PCs, something that hasn't been allowed since June 2008, and can 'downgrade' a licence for Windows 7 - the operating system that hasn't yet been released - to XP for at least six months after the former's launch.

A Microsoft spokeswoman said that support for XP on a new machine is provided by the computer maker, not Microsoft. "Customers who purchased Windows XP pre-installed on their machines will receive support from their Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) per the OEM support policy at time of purchase," she said.

New Year and here we go again

Unlike unflourished, uncherished, unperiled, unminded and unaccepted time that could always ruin the runless phenomenon and limits the wishes, the wishes for next new beginning, the hype, the only thought to live, the only frantic nightmare, the only packed up memory. It’s a new year for all the Nepalese- so wishing you all Happy New Year 2066BS.

We like to wish all Nepalis and all other people observing Nepali Culture around the world the very happy new year 2066 BS. Hope this year will bring Nepal- a real change to make it a New Nepal of deeds and the best written Constitution ever. Thanks to robots for visiting this post.(the only frequent visits to this blog)

No more words for this part of the earth- most untalked about, most unlikely to do about, and most unlike to change about. It’s a New Nepal with new faith that couldn’t grow in us(atleast me) for the new era. Leaving spans and creating skycrapers and craning them to dust and muds; and taxing and re-taxing for fueling and wasting your twice a-day daal bhaat.

With this new year Ekendra’s blog will be changed most probably the whole in concept, reality blogging, Nepali blogging, obviously what is seen will be blogged, hope my blog will be more retro and agonizing and degrading… but will be of truth and more about being pure Nepali.

Why ME? Why NOT me? 99 traits to talk about…

Just to list out 99 traits that been hunting, poisoning and occupying for ever and ever… don’t get the fantasies over, don’t even think about each twice, it’s a dynamic shade:

• apathy unlimited, broken beak, lost mentality, Obama dreams, baby care, transparent tea, bygone days, lost career, desirous marvels, unsuccessful domains, blue bluehost, talked thinkings, corrupticians, penniless gourmet, skyrocketing themes, charmed wordpress, the same blogger, falsified friendliness, wordless posts, blocked pages,
  
• meaningless analysis, inaccessible bandwidth, uncontrollable frustrations, unscheduled to-do lists, facebook fantasies, the same old sonata, thought about live, dead google, humdrum affairs, whatever netizens, flawless encounters, barbarian rule, magnitude scaling, political instability, silver lining kudos, buffering shadows, childhood cowboy times, poisoning hearts, unfaithful relations, namesake constitution, vampire politicians, lightening hearts, mistaken red roses,
  
• lost faith, ignorant bliss, chilly momo, sweet love, loadshedding, chicken lover, unwanted back hearings, traits for traits, unscheduled timings, net lover death, craps of Pokhara, suffocating nationality, go as it comes seniors, narrow mindedness, baleful unlucky, born in wrong time, supportless support, loved nightmares, unlimited fantasies,
  
• welcomed migraine, networkless signals, running noses, charge coupled devices, he and she, they and me, blissfully happy gals, dumb Himalayas, shadowy fewa, hills of wastages, afraiding beri beri, workless people, punctured tires, broken glasses, happy-go hands, unshredded  kisses, tones of falsified axioms, worthless scrabbling, sucked orange pills, biased educators, shameless businesses, petrol queuing, water-richen shortage, mouthed leaders, confused citizens,
  
• earned bucks, feared career, indecisive phrenal cortex, virulent eyes, thoughts for bots, revitalization, unhealed wounds, penalized rewards, khusi for life, never obtained marks, careless beauty, to be stable drain

Need for omitting anything that describes development—coz haven’t seen what it’s like or what is develpment- never used to happen in our lands, in Nepal.

Revitalization in personification of my blog- a more inside approach to blog for a Nepali Mouse

With a mere visits of 18/day, I still tend to update and manage my blog like a pro. This is a compassion, need might be, but not a show case. And I don't want one. Write anything you think of - the wackier the better! This is what made me a compassionate blogger-- self made buddy.

Personal Introspection: Really going personal, sometimes too personal or something else. Personal interest over the country’s issues and on. Sites that are personal, but have things like weblogs and other personal insights will change often enough to bring readers back and are easy to write. (I read this line somewhere else)

Blogging nearly whatever I feel like. This is what doesn’t make me sort of posts, though not always. Sometimes obsessions could drag to go with sticky notes for bloggers or the other time death of another blogger. All of these sorts, of course, are virtually not that untrue—practically realizable.

In the case scenario of being a Nepali Blogger, the lack of bandwidth, the sort of accessible devices and after all the power supply. This is really not that easy going with crustaceans and IPL Cricket matches and World Cup Pre-qualifying rounds and Texas Instrument’s another active filter components and even managing to manage another never been followed schedule. The life is really bugged. A more inside approach could only be perceived had there been some sort of exchanges for likeliness rather than just the Model Sansar.

Personally nullifying the governmental acts, foolishness, guffs to engage public, praised injustice, infinite strikes synonymously Nepal bandhs and never ending list of New Nepal restaurant's menu. Personification could be checked for… later rather than be safe now. Just blog, blog for blogging, blog for myself, blog for Google bots, blog for crawlers, blog for another post, oops another post for blogger. And finally marginally survived 2 of the 19 blogs… for a Nepali Mouse (not the church mouse, referred to as).

Let the best Nepali bloggers flourish for blogging and let this be crosswords.

Gain Allocation for Sallen and Key Biquads

Especially talking about the Sallen and Key Biquads or Circuitry, the flexibility of allocating different gains to different filter sections gives an extra degree of freedom in designing high order filters. This freedom of allocating different gains to different factors is termed as gain allocation, or gain assignment. However, there are no such decisive rules, this flexibility offers an opportunity to improve the overall design.

The different gain allocation at different section would affect the signal strength in each section. Hence, gain allocation can be used to make the maximum and minimum signal strength in the pass band in all sections as uniform as practical. This means the overall gain is shared without making the signal in one particular section either too strong to cause distortion or op amp latching, or too weak that falls below the noise threshold.

This gain allocation- gain compensation and enhancement can be performed for Sallen Key representation of Butterworth filter and similar circuitry. Compensation is done at the early stages where as the enhancement is done at the later stages. The purpose of compensation to do is in the order to avoid clipping.

Research says Facebook is more popular than email

Social networking has become a fundamental part of the global online experience -- Social networks such as Facebook, MySpace and Twitter are more popular than email with web users, says Nielsen Online.

A report by the research company revealed that two thirds of surfers use 'Member Communities', the category name it gives social networks and blogs.

Nielsen Online also revealed Member Communities are the fourth most popular online category, being beaten by search, portals and PC software.

The research highlighted that Facebook was the most popular social network and has its greatest reach in the UK, with 47 percent of all British web users logging on to the social network, while one in every six minutes of UK online time is spent visiting a social network or blog.

Nielsen Online also said that mobile phones are helping increase the popularity of social networks, finding that UK mobile Web users have the greatest propensity to visit a social network through their handset, with 23 percent (2 million people) doing so, compared to 19 percent in the US (10.6 million people). These numbers are a big increase over last year – 249 percent in the UK and 156 percent in the US.

Dher saari khushiyon se bhara ho aapka sansar,

Rango mein ghuli ladki kya laal gulabi hai
Jo dekhta hai kehta hai kya maal gulabi hai
Pichle baras tune jo bhigoya tha holi mein
Ab tak nishani ka woh rumaal gulabi hai.
Chadenge jab pyare rang, ek meri dosti ka rang bhi chadhana.
Lagne lagenge tumhe suhane sare rang,
Aur meri dosti ka rang chamkega hurdum tumhare sang.

Google Chrome is a no Exception to errors and CPU hungry

Like Firefox, Google Chrome (a decent Windows Internet Explorer based browser) has been showing problems since it was left up off from the beta tag last time. My personal experience with Google Chrome and it's simple interface and light memory consumption was fantastic until recently I came to discover that Chrome is eating out all of my CPU power. This problem persisted when I browsed more tabs in a single window. (Click the screenshots (snap-error-in-google-chrome.JPG) to view details showing Errors in Google Chrome.)

Internet connectivity was fine, more tabs were browsed simultaneously and later I came to discover that errors in Google Chrome are as no exception. It says: Aw, Snap! Something went wrong while displaying this webpage. To continue, press Reload or go to another page. Is Google going to pay me reload the same data?

This screenshot (google-chrome-consuming-cpu-power.JPG) shows each tab of Google Chrome is consuming not less than 17 MB of Memory (private working set) @ C:\Users\Jen\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\0.2.149.29\Installer\chrome\Chrome-bin making the CPU Usage 100% (2x2 GHz)though the Physical Memory is mere 62%.

I tried to find the solution at the official site of Google Chrome but failed to so so. Like fasterfox for loading Firefox faster and working on its prefetch and memory for efficient use of the browser, chrome needs some like when you're running on more active tabs.

Not that late I came to solve a problem showing error of something went wrong.... just refreshed the page after switching off the Wireless Button ie disconnecting from Internet, it worked- the page was displayed correctly but not all pages. This should be solved by Google as Chrome is hitting market like nothing else like.

Using Nepali Keyboard layout and Nepali input language in Windows Vista

Unlike the premature form of Nepali Keyboard layout and input language in Microsoft's Windows XP, Windows Vista offers much improved performance and look for Nepali language. In fact, Vista now support Nepali language very well both in terms of Nepali Keyboard layout and Nepali input language.

This means you can use Nepali language thru Nepali Keyboard layout and even enter words or commands(limited) in Nepali either directly by typing or using the onscreen Nepali keyboard. You can customize your keyboard for a specific language or format by changing the keyboard layout. The layout controls which characters appear on the screen when you press the keys on your keyboard. Few steps tend to finish up us with happiness of using Windows Vista in Nepali language.

Step1. Go to Control panel > Clock, Language, and Region > Regional and Language Options

Step2. Alternative to step1: Type Regional and Language Options in Start Search box of start menu.

Step3. Go to Keyboards and Languages tab in Regional and Language Options wizard.

Step4. Click Change Keyboards box. On the General tab, click add.

Step5. Add Input languages, choose Nepali. Preview it if you like to.

We can also make Nepali (Nepal) as the default input language in vista. Select one of the installed input languages to use as the default for all input fields.

XP to Windows 7 'Upgrade' Scheme Announced by Microsoft- How to upgrade to Windows 7 from XP?

Were you waiting to find how to upgrade to Microsoft's most awaited OS Windows 7 from Windows XP version. Microsoft will help users upgrade from Windows XP to Windows 7 by selling upgrade media, but warned XP users they must do a "clean" installation of Windows 7. That means all data on the XP machine will be lost.

Regarding XP, customers can purchase upgrade media and an upgrade licence to move from Windows XP to Windows 7 and perform a clean installation of Windows 7.  Upgrade actually means upgrading the license and such upgraded license will be discounted according to Microsoft. 

However,  Microsoft has declined to provide pricing for all six editions of Windows 7, or for the XP upgrade licences. More news on all six versions of Windows 7, visit the geeklog article now, here and find out which is the best edition of Windows 7. Microsoft has been aggressively pushing Windows 7's timetable. Just two weeks after it launched the first - and in the end, the only - public beta of the new operating system, the head of Windows development said the company is moving directly to 'release candidate' directly to 'release candidate'.

Microsoft said it was working on ways to help Windows XP users make the move, but would not get specific. "Microsoft plans to have other tools and ways to help people get through that process, but we don't have full details on that at this time".

Contact Lens... Thursday Humor

Contact Lens

The teenager lost a contact lens while playing basketball in his driveway. After a fruitless search, he told his mother the lens was nowhere to be found.

Undaunted, she went outside and in a few minutes, returned with the lens in her hand.

"How did you manage to find it, Mom?" the teenager asked.

"We weren't looking for the same thing," she replied.

"You were looking for a small piece of plastic. I was looking for $150."

 

Cooking Woes

Becky prepared a pasta dish for a dinner party she was giving. In her haste, however, she forgot to refrigerate the spaghetti sauce, and it sat on the counter all day. She was worried about spoilage, but it was too late to cook up another batch.

That night, the phone rang during dinner, and one of the guests volunteered to answer it. Becky's face dropped as the guest called out, "It's the Poison Control Center. They want to know how the spaghetti sauce turned out."
