Not Enough Space in your Local Disk (C:)


You are trying to save a file in your computer & the computer gives you a message "There is not enough space in your Local Disc (C:)". Strange, right!! where all the space of your harddisk drive has gone??You had got enough space in your hard disk ( 40,80,160,250,320GB ).The same thing can happen to your Flash Drive/Pen Drive or external Hard Disk Drive--"not enough space".When you download a file from a internet it is first stored in a temporary folder. Again when you move a file from one place to another e.g.from my documents to desktop, or one drive to another, a duplicate copy of the file is transferred to your desired place. Remember if you just Drag & Drop a file from one place to another, a duplicate file is just copied from one place to another. This creates a lot of duplicate files in your computer & consumes a lot of space. The solution for this is to find out the similar or duplicate files & delete it one by one. You can do it for some files but it is very difficult to find out all duplicate files in your computer & delete it. Alternatively, you can get a Duplicate Cleaner software, that will do the job for you.



Digital Volcano gives you a Free Duplicate Cleaner, that will find & delete your duplicate files, mp3s,photos,etc.without costing you anything. It is just a 1.93MB size software, but can free a lot of space from your computer, Pen Drive or External Hard Drive.


Download Duplicate Cleaner
You can remove the selected files as per your choice, if you want.

How to Rescue your laptop if the warranty period is expired


Hi!! Do you have computer with prelodaed, or company installed operating system, like Windows XP, Vista, Windows 7?? Most of the laptops like Sony, Dell,HP ....are coming with preloaded or factory installed operating system with most of the softwares installed. So you just have to purchase & start using your system or Laptop. Nice!! Now think if your laptop get a serious virus infection & is not starting up or become extremely slow, or some other serious error occurs to your system. How you will correct your Laptop?? It is not responding at all. Yes, this can happen to your computer system.
If you are in a warranty period, the service centre will take care of all your problems.But if your warranty is expired you need a Rescue Disc or Recovery Disc to correct your System(laptop).
Do you have the Rescue Disc??
A Rescue Disc contains all the Factory installed softwares files, & can make your Laptop as New, like you had purchased (atleast functionally :-D) In Windows Vista & 7 there is an option where by going to Windows Recovery Centre, you can make a Rescue Disc. Just type Recovery or Restore in the search box at START button, you will find the option of Windows Recovery Centre (in Windows 7 Restore option --> backup--> insert a Blank DVD & follow the instructions,or alternatively on C:or D: drive, wherever you like, but in case of formatting this can be lost).
In sony Vaio series of Laptops, there is a inbuilt Rescue centre where you can format & make your computer as Factory fitted settings.For this you have to restart your computer & as the vaio logo starts showing, press F10, the rescue option will show. Do the System Restore or C:drive recovery. This will correct your computer as good as new .
Still not happy ??? don't want to do all these techy job?? go to restoredisk.com, there you will get all types of Recovery C/DVD for almost all laptops & electronics, but after a coughing up a nominal price. Bye!!

After Fall of Mininova, From where to download Free Movies, Softwares, Music


You wish to see a movie, that has been just released in a theatre, but you are far from the place e.g. out of country, or at a place where your language is not spoken, or you want to download Free Movies, Softwares, Music & videos. The answer is torrents or peer to peer sharing (see my previous posts on torrent).
Torrents are the easiest way to get free stuffs online, & it is very addictive too.
Mininova.org was once upon the best torrent site for getting all type of Free movies, Music, Softwares, Games, Video etc.
Alas! Mininova is no more providing these type of torrents any more( The downfall of Mininova).
Now you can get Free movies, softwares etc on many torrent site like thepiratebay.org, isohunt.com etc.
 (Top 35 torrent sites of 2010)
Nowadays my Favourite site for torrent downloads is EXTRATORRENT. .







It is so fast & seeding is superb, you can get sometimes, same day the movie is released.The best part is that it provides the screen shots of a movie, so that you can choose to download, after seeing the quality of that video in screen shots.
It also clarifies whether the video is a cam print or XVID, DVD etc. Television links are also available.

See the wide varieties of videos available on extratorrent .
The Negative point is that every time a flash pop up will irrtate you as per your location, particularly inviting you for a date :)
You can use a flash blocker, as this is a common problem nowadays for almost every website. A sticky flash video will popup from below or side of your web page.
For downloading a torrent file you need a Torrent Downloder, or Bit Torrent Client like Vuze. (Download Vuze from here)
Those who are using opera as their internet browser, don't need any bittorrent client, as opera is capable of downloading torrent files.
Alternatively you can use Flashget . Flashget is my Downloader software for any file, &am it also supports Torrents :-)

If you are a newbie for torrents see my previous post on what is torrent & how to download a torrent file.
In extratorrent.com there is a download option in the article, click it & save the torrent file on your desktop or document. Then open it with a bittorrent client, or simply directly right click that download link & download with your Downloader Software.
In case of any problem ask me for FREE :-)
BYE for now
