In the dead of night, the computer-generated noise is more obvious, if this was frequently operate a computer, hard disk read and write the sound will become an intolerable annoyance. If it is not too high disk performance, for example, just browsing the web, chat QQ such applications can in fact be appropriate to reduce the sound of the disk, so that the computer is running in a more quiet state.
Under normal circumstances, to reduce hard drive noise, need to turn the silent mode of the hard drive, but hard drive manufacturers have to rely on sound management tools, and have set into DOS is very tedious, in fact, there are a lot of disk tools are also integrated hard drive sound management features, so under Windows you can directly adjust the sound of hard work.
HDTune tool, for example, download and extract the HDTune software running, switch to the “AAM” window, click “Enable” check box, a lot of hard disk by default set as “highly efficient (254) level, although the hard disk take full advantage of performance, but power consumption is also the largest hard drive noise, this time slider to the left to adjust. Then click on the “test” button to find the balance point of the performance and quiet, if you want hard work is more quiet,Canon BP-E722 battery
and may wish to directly regulate the “low noise (128) (pictured), and then click the” Settings “button, so the hard disk will be work in silent mode, if you need to use high-performance mode, simply run the software to adjust to.
Blocked electricity mouth, transform the wireless mouse
Beijing Tian (July 13, 2010, 27)
I bought a Pennefather 7100 wireless mouse, use is actually quite normal, but with this mouse a few days after, it has a small defect, that is, it has no power switch, although this does not affect the But the light-emitting diodes within the mouse is always in the life of the power state will be more power and impact of the mouse, so the spirit of the purpose of saving, I decided for the security of a power switch. Should be noted that the open mouse shell, you can not enjoy the warranty within the warranty period.
Step 1: Tear off the bottom of the mouse above the flag (torn off the mark after the warranty does not), you can see here there is a small hole, it is estimated that the manufacturers have planned to install the switch in here, of course, it is the next installation process the advantage.
Step two: fully open the mouse, showing the circuit boards, at the small circle in the figure is, we want to switch.
The third step: to the electronic market to buy the switch suitable for the size of the bottom of the mouse holes, to distinguish between positive and negative pin of the switch, then series battery connections welded inside the mouse line with a soldering iron (preferably welded to the battery positive circuit the supply current of the battery on), so that you can control.
The fourth step: welded switch the tape in the mouse hole in the bottom, if fixed is not strong, you can use glass glue to reinforce.
Step 5: Finally, the mouse re-install back to resume normal work. Can be turned off when not in power, so that does not cost power to reduce the frequency of battery replacement and extended the time of use of the mouse.
For some did not set aside at the bottom of the holes of the mouse, the user can self-dug hole. Switch in the bottom of the mouse, the protruding switch cap may affect the smooth mouse movement, and therefore can switch installed on the side of the mouse.
Cleverly decided to get 1366 × 768
The Sichuan Red_HDS (August 3, 2010, 30)
Last week we explained the HTPC set FULL HD point-to-point connection output, because there are many of my friends use the TV and are based on non-standard 1366 x 768 resolution, Dell Inspiron 1300 laptop battery
but it set relatively complex, which of our non-standard 1366 x 768 resolution, point-to-point connection to the graphics card and display device output for an introduction.
N card Adaptive
For non-standard 1366 x 768 resolution, NVIDIA drivers for users to consider very attentive, you can easily get in the NVIDIA Control Panel “.
A
Find the “Manage custom resolutions” option, select the resolution you want to set the display (flat panel TV), click on “Create” “Display” settings in the pop-up “custom resolution” window fill you want to set resolution – the horizontal desktop pixels “box, enter” 1366 “,” 768 “and then fill in the” Vertical desktop lines “box. Click on the “test (T)” button, the system will automatically display this resolution corresponding test, if we can pass the test, there will be a resolution of 1366 × 768 display resolution options. “Change resolution” option is selected the display, set to 1366 × 768 resolution, click on the “Apply” to 1366 × 768 resolution output (Figure 1).
For installing the Windows Vista operating system with NVIDIA graphics card HTPC set of 1366 × 768 resolution is even more simple, Vista, will be able to support directly in the Display Properties is set to 1366 × 768 resolution, even custom-resolved The rates do not need.
A card I card to toss
NVIDIA graphics and simple settings in the driver for Intel integrated graphics and ATI graphics set to 1366 × 768 resolution on a little trouble. As the driver default resolution is not 1366 × 768 option only through third-party software to PowerStrip.
Installed PowerStrip, find its icon in the lower right corner of the taskbar, right click and select “Display settings → Settings” (Figure 2), into the display settings screen, click the lower right corner of the Advanced Timing Options “(Figure 3), and then select the” custom resolution “(Figure 4), the new 1366 × 768 resolution (Figure 5), you will be prompted to restart is required to accept the new resolution. After the restart, with Intel integrated graphics HTPC in PowerStrip to output the display resolution to adjust to 1366 × 768, while the ATI graphics card HTPC will have the ATI driver control panel “Display Manager” tab is set to 1366 × 768 resolution (Figure 6), the physical resolution of 1366 × 768 flat-panel TVs will be able to achieve point-to-point output.
Tips
VGA analog interface, you need to signal digital-analog conversion, most of the resolution can reach 1360 × 768, but does not influence the use. Sometimes scanning phenomenon, can be closed in accordance with the described method.
BIOS anti-theft guard
Sichuan are children of August 10, 2010 (31)
A computer in a sudden power outage and then boot directly into the BIOS setup interface, and pop up a prompt: “the system intruded, chassis opened or tempered before, please check the system” and its prompt to the effect that: the system is invasive, open the case , check the system. Then will no longer get into the operating system.battery for HP Pavilion DV9000
How is this going? Find out from the bottom of the computer motherboard manual carefully read the board has a special Chassis jumper (Chassis intrusion pin, pictured), this function can detect the shell is opened, and use issued an alert. By default, the jumper cap short the Chassis Signal and GND pins, this feature was turned off, if the jumper cap is bad or off, the feature may be automatically open, and thus give rise to error. Repeatedly with a knife scraping clear jumper pin, to prevent exposure to adverse circumstances, and replace the jumper cap, but the fault is still, evidently the aging of the line self-open situation.
Study of the motherboard’s BIOS settings, find the “Chassis Intrusion chassis intrusion option, the default, Enabled-silent (static open, the default value – if the chassis cover is opened, the setting will change to Detected ) instead of the Disabled (disabled), the system would not have penetrated to monitor, nor does it display a message, the final failure can be ruled out.
The person from the “machine”
(January 5, 2010 a)
Face came a man, within a few seconds to determine his taste, his status? In general, we can wear his watch, belt, or worn shoes to see some clues. But if you want to quickly understand the character of a young man, the best way is to look at is what kind of computer. What? You do not believe, do you think computers are stereotyped big metal box coupled with a normal monitor.battery for HP Pavilion ZT3000
Obviously, changes in the past few years, the computer’s “appearance” has taken place has undergone enormous changes in 2008, these various computers have begun to enter millions of households. Friends according to their use of different character choose different computers is a matter of course. Today, we take a look at why these different patterns of computer on behalf of the owner’s personality.
Pursuit of the spirit to enjoy a favorite: the HTPC
HTPC features: Chassis pay attention to details and materials, audio performance, handling
If you go to a friend’s house and saw he bought 50-inch LCD TV next to “lie” a box-like appliances, then please remain calm, because the box may be neither the PS3, is not the amplifier, but the HTPC (Home Theater Personal Computer, the home theater PC). The word on the HTPC, you might also strange. In fact we can say simply, it is a special chassis computer.
Character Analysis: Anybody here who home so a HTPC, we first were able to infer that he is a relatively high awareness of the computer. And a pursuit of spiritual enjoyment. Such people tend to be more romantic, pay attention to the mood and quality of life.
Man: Why draw the above conclusion, which from the characteristics of the HTPC Speaking from the computer. The HTPC chassis, look to the atmosphere, HTPC chassis is important to the design of materials and details. Only a real man would attach importance to the detail and texture of things.
, HTPC audio output, stronger than an ordinary computer, as reflected in HTPC or optical output audio signal to the amplifier output to the speaker amplifier decoding, and signal amplification, or it will block a separate sound card output to ensure that The sound quality motion pictures. Configurable HTPC people, they not only will the emphasis on the computer itself in the outstanding performance of a particular aspect, it is good at discovering others the potential benefits.
The HTPC third major feature is the handling is good, because the HTPC is usually in the living room, if you also use the traditional mouse and keyboard, then the operation will be very inconvenient and even painful. Therefore, the wise user to make himself more comfortable in watching a movie when the wireless mouse and keyboard, or remote control. This also shows that the users have the ability to control the overall situation.
That use the HTPC movies on the big screen, will tend to pour a glass of red wine, indulge in the “Cape No. 7 moving love story, also for the” Batman: The Dark Knight “that people are basically good of thinking and moving. With HTPC emotional, full of romanticism, and you will often hear the movie’s classic lines of his mouth, it is so poetic things.
Most of the HTPC chassis is very elegant in material and workmanship
