How to Avoid Laptop from Over Heating

 I found some tips to avoid overheating and keep your laptop as cool as possible.

1. Power Settings : Normally while working on laptops we keep it for charging and set the mode as "High performance". Due to this setting it consumes more power which cause your laptop to overheat.
Remedy to this is to set you laptop in the balanced or Power saver mode.what it will do is it will consume only that amount of power that is required.

2. Conpressed Air : while Working on laptops in dusty conditions may lead to Dust gets deposited on the Cooling vents, Hence Choking them.This will cause the fan to get over worked and the Fan will work at high Temperatures.
In Order to Avoid This problem, Buy a can of Compressed air, and Spray it on the vents of your laptop.
This will remove all the dust and will keep your laptop much cool.


3. Surface: Normally we place our laptops on pillows or blankets,which is very comfortable to us while working.But many might not know that such surfaces Chokes the vents of you laptop and it cause it to overheat.
The Soft surface will not allow the heat to Escape and will be reflected back to internal machinery.
I recommend the best surface on which you should keep your laptops are the flat ones. Such as tables.
This will allow proper Flow of air and heat to Escape.


4.Cooling Pad : Cooling pad is another remedy to overheating of your laptops. Obviously it will cost you some Money, But Trust me its worth Investing, if you face overheating Problems.

5.Power Off Your Laptops : When you are not working on you laptop then you should switch it off rather then keeping it on standby, I suggest not you use "Hibernate" Option as it will take a toll on your RAM. Power Off Your Laptops when not needed, Its as simple as that.

I believe That above 5 Tips will help you.

How to Make Your Pc Faster? Guaranteed!!!

 

 Friends!!! You must be Fed-Up with Slow Working Process of your Computer Even if you are Using Latest Software/Hardware UpGradation.
 I Know Such Experiences are Hardly Encountered ... Especially Girls i.e due to Lack of Knowledge regarding to Computers and Technology.
So, Here I will give you Some Important Computer Tips/Tricks!
Do Follow as Given below |
 =====================================================================




1. First, run a scandisk or checkdisk. Let Windows fix any errors.

 2. Run a disk cleanup utility...this will flush your temporary internet folder, trash can, temp system files, etc.

3. Delete any garbage files or  data...if possible, run a Duplicate  File Finder  program.

 4. Run Defrag on all partitions.
 (NOTE: run this after you have deleted all trash and excess files!)

 5. Run a registry cleaner utility  and delete or get rid of any  orphaned entries in that registry.
NOTE**- for This you will Need a Third Party Software! (Recommended Software)
You Can Download it from here :)
 Click Me to Download CCleaner

 6. Check your exisiting swap file for it's size and location (*will explain location later in the post). If you have alot of ram (i.e. 1 gig and over) set this swap file to something small, like 250 mb. The reason is that this will force Windows to load more into memory, resulting in faster performance (note: some games and applications  actually require a certain sized  swap file so  check your applications performance after making a size adjustment for any error messages.)








 7. Under XP, you can tell Windows to use Classic Style on  your desktop, - this  will remove the neat single click  and internet-style desktop but  for lower end  systems this will improve  performance in other areas,  such as gaming and  multi-tasking.

 8. At First, Click On 'Start' Button

 > Search Bar, type,"Run" 

>then type ,"msconfig" (Without Quotations) 

> under  startup and only keep the  programs that are  essential to load in the tray icon  (and hence stay resident in  memory).
 Uncheck anything else non- essential, like an ATI or Nvidia control panel, Quicktime utility, Real Audio, etc.

 9. Upgrade drivers! Check for the latest BIOS, video, motherboard, sound, etc. drivers from the manufacturers. Alot of my friends had chipsets on their motherboard that had  advanced disk management capabilities or AGP port settings but the drivers weren't loaded for them so they were
 never being used. A simple upgrade realized a noticeable difference. For instance, they
 didn't have the latest driver fortheir AGP port so it was set to 1x, instead of being used at 4x!
 ===========
 Here I will Give You Third Party App software to UpDate you Drivers!

Well , There you will get a Trial Version of Software which you can use for only 10 Days!!!

*Note= While Activating Remember 'DisConnect your Internet Connection' or Else Product won't Activate.

d) Done !!!
------------------------------------------------------------------
10. (OK, so this won't speed up your PC but it could save you alot of time and trouble later on!) After making all these improvements, make a working backup! I use Ghost, but for XP users you can also use System Restore...)
 Enjoy!!!!
