Why are computers too hot and turn itself off? Generally speaking there are various  factors that cause computers to overheat. These can be due to both hardware failure and incompatible drivers or software as well as the result of wrong computer settings.

Computers that shut itself down may be  the result of  not only overheating but several factors may also play a role such as damaged memory, driver or software incompatibility, hardware conflict and virus or spyware infections. It is highly recommended that you install application that monitor you computer performance such as, fan speed, CPU temperature etc

Before we proceed, first of all you must take a look at the following facts: different processors have different maximum tolerable computer or CPU temperature range. AMD-powered computers’ maximum tolerable temperature range is 85oC  whilst those running the latest  Intel processors is 72oC.

Below are a list of major causes that make your  computer to overheat:

1. Wrong BIOS settings. If you perform BIOS  overclok you might run a risk of making  your computer too hot even in the worst scenario you can cause the computer not functioning at all. The only solution to this problem is to revert back the  default BIOS settings.
2. You’re an avid gamers and you use your computers to play resources-hungry games. These type of games eat into your memory resources, processors and VGA hardware. In this case you get your computer processor to work extra hard. This will result in computer overheating and if your processor is not able to handle it anymore your computer will turn itself off immediately. The solution : add the suction fan at the back of the CPU to suck hot air from inside of the CPU
3. Damaged or dirty cooling fan. If the coolling fan speed decreases or is  very dusty, the cooling air it suplies the CPU will also decrease resulting in hot or overheating processor. How to get aroung this? open the cooling fan, clean the dust and make sure that the fan is still spinning normally. Faulty or damaged cooling fan should be replaced with a new one.
4. Power supply leakage. This will result in significant increases in the voltage output to the mainboard and other components. The unusually high voltage will cause electrical components of the CPU to overheat or even damaged. To resolve this problem you’re recommended to use stabilizer to keep the voltage stable.
5. Dusty or dirty aluminum heatsink/  processor or the VGA cooler). If the cooling fan is just fine, make sure that the aluminum coolant is clean and  dust-free because dust can inhibit the cooling process supplied  by a fan. Solution; Clean  heatsink with a good cleaner and this should be done on a regular basis ie six-monthly.
6. Aluminum heatsink coolant is not appropriatly placed. If aluminum heatsink is not properly attached to the the processor, the processor will overheat and will likely make your computer turn itself off. The solution: Open the your CPU and carefully go to the fan and check that the aluminum heatsink attached properly on the processor.  You might also want  to check if the coolant at the alumunium surface is still clean or apply new paste if it is dirty.

1. Why Is My Computer Running Slow?

You can speed up computer shutdown by modifying Windows registry key. After going through the following registry modification procedure you will notice an increase in shutdown process. As usual before you proceed you’re advised to make a full back-up of your computer registry just in case you’re not following the procedure correctly. Note that this tips  is only  applicable for computer running Windows XP/Vista/7, other window versions may have different registry key locations.

In this case I do the registry modification in Windows Vista to make the computer shutdown faster. When your computer is being shutdown, your machine needs time that must be passed until the process is complete to ensure and all Windows system is closed. By default, Windows set  twenty seconds as the time needed to perform this which is simply  too long. You can cut down this shutdown process with  a simple registry settings tweaking.

Folow the step-by-step guide carefully otherwise you will end up getting a painful consequence  because if you perform the following procedure the wrong way, your computer won’t boot up

1. Click [Start] and then on the box [Start Search] typing [regedit].
2. In the windows registry locate the  following key: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetControl]
3. Once you find it, while on the right pane, right-click on [WaitToKillServiceTimeout] and select [Modify] , see picture bellow:

Under  EditString window , change the default  number of 20.000 with a figure  between 5000-10000. Do not put with figures  under 5000, because by doing so  you do a  force shutdown. If you set the figure to  6000 it means you set your computer to shutdown in six  seconds After you specify the numbers click [OK] and exit the registry then shutdown the  computer twice. Your computer will now shutdown within the time you have set above.

Now you have fix a slow computer shutdown

DDR3 SDRAM is an improvement over its predecessor, DDR2 SDRAM, and the two are not compatible. The primary benefit of DDR3 is the ability to transfer at twice the data rate of DDR2 (I/O at 8× the data rate of the memory cells it contains), thus enabling higher bus rates and higher peak rates than earlier memory technologies. In addition, the DDR3 standard allows for chip capacities of 512 megabits to 8 gigabits, effectively enabling a maximum memory module size of 16 gigabytes.

Physically, DDR3 memory modules are not much different from DDR2 memory modules. Both have a total of 240 pins on the memory module. The only apparent difference will be the location of grooves on the module. This is done so users will not go wrong installing memory into a personal computer.

Speed and Memory Bandwidth

The main purpose of the DDR3 memory standard is to increase the memory speed and bandwidth in the above specification of the older DDR2. Original DDR memory module (standard) runs between the effective clock speed of 200 and 400MHz. DDR2 Standard double this, ie between 400 and 800MHz. DDR3 is set to two times the speed of DDR2 memory with clock speeds between 800MHz and 1.6GHz.

Although the DDR2 memory standard in real only increased the speed of 800MHz, there are modules that are sold that can run at a speed of 1066MHz. Technically this overclocked modules JEDEC standard modules as the unofficial specifications that support speeds higher than 800MHz. This is often handled by requiring the memory modules that are executed with a higher voltage or different latencies to improve speed.

Lower  Power Consumption

The other major advantage of the new memory standard is a reduction of the voltage used for memory modules. DDR standard modules run at 2.5V original. A significant power reduction that has been created on the 1.8V DDR2 standard. With a lower voltage level, needs less actual power of personal computers to run the memory subsystem. DDR3 look further reduce power usage by dropping the voltage level to the point of 1.5V. This decline also occurred in the standard DDR2 from DDR, but did not reduce overall power consumption.

Increased latency

In order to increase the speed DDR3 memory modules, it should also improve latency modules. Latency is the amount of time needed to process orders the memory modules within a few hours or a command cycle. The higher the latency, the slower memory to process orders.

JEDEC  (Joint Electron Device Engineering Council) standard latency typical for DDR2 is 5-5-5-15. JEDEC standard latencies for the newer DDR3 memory are 7-7-7-15. Even with the increase in latency for DDR3 memory, a higher clock speed allows the memory still has a greater bandwidth than the old standard. This causes the DDR3 memory running at 800MHz to be slightly slower than DDR2 memory which is also running at 800MHz. Real benefits obtained from a clock speed higher than this standard.

Another thing related to the latency that must be considered is that this is standard. As manufacturers increase the memory module, the module will be run at lower latencies than JEDEC specifications. It is possible to find a faster DDR2 memory at the present rate 5-5-5-15. This will take some time for DDR3 to get below the JEDEC latencies.

This method is often used by computer  owners who have just bought a new computer  or those having a network of more than one computers. By performing hard drive cloning you don’t need to install operating system or install each program one by one on a new hard drive thus you can save time  and energy.
You can use cloning software available on the market such as DriveImage XML (DIX), Norton Ghost etc to do the job of transferring all files and program from one computer to another. But for Windows users who have been  accustomed to and familiar with Windows Explorer, this whole process can actually  be performed using Windows Explorer. This however should be done with extra care since the whole processes are done in exact sequence, though  not take as much time as installing new operating system.

Here is a step-by-step guide on how to clone a hard drive using Windows Explorer  Menu :

1. Format and partition the new hard drive. First of all, you need to create  partition and format the hard drive which is a mandatory before using a new hard drive.
2. Set  hard drive status. Hard drives  that will be copied  (source hard drive ) and a new target hard drive  must both be readable by the computer. You need to adjust the jumper settings located on the back of both hard drives or you can do that by connecting both hard drives with the computer mainboard. Hard drive Source will then act as  master hard drive while the new hard drive will act as slave hard drive (target hard drive)
3. Hard Drive Cloning process.

After you complete the two steps above you can no proceed to the main job of cloning the hard drive.

1. Start Windows Explorer.
   Go to Windows explorer and Show all hidden files by clicking the Tools menu and select Folder Options, and then click on the View button. Check  the Show hidden files  and folders option, then click the Apply button, then click the OK button.
2. Select all the files and the entire folders on your source  hard drive except the Windows folder. Then click the Copy option on the Edit Menubar.
   Click the Paste option on the menubar Edit on the  second target hard drive then  create new folders in the root directory and rename it with “Windows”
3. Click the Windows folder on the source hard disk then select all files and all folders except Win386.swp file.
   Then click the Copy option on the Edit menubar.
4. Click the Paste option on the menubar on Edit to the Windows folder on the   target hard drive

Alternatively you can use the following a  quite easy method using Windows built-in command.

1. Install Windows and all the  programs you wish to clone  on  the hard drive that will be used as source drive  and put it on the Primary IDE Master.
   Boot your computer  from the mater hard drive carriers, make sure you have configured the new  hard drive as IDE Slave
2. Go to  Windows command prompt  by clicking Start> Run > CMD (In Windows XP)
3. Perform quick formatting of the new hard disk by typing following command format d: / q / u
   When finished, exit the windows directory then press enter
   Type  the following command: xcopy / h / e / r / y / s / c / kc: d: press
4. Enter to start the hard drive cloning process.

This way, we will  get a clone of  hard drive which contains  exactly the same content as  the original  hard drive.

Web-based Proxy Servers

A web-based proxy server is a website that provides a field for you to input the URL of a website that you wish to surf anonymously as shown in the picture bellow . When you submit the form the web-based proxy server makes a request for the page that you want to visit.

The machine typically doesn’t identify itself as a proxy server and doesn’t pass along your IP address when requesting for the page you wish to visit. The features of these web sites vary (ad blocking, javascript blocking, etc) as does their price. Some are free of charge and some are paid services. Examples of web-based proxy services are:  Proxify.com, hidemyass.com, freeproxyserver.net and many more.

Mask IP Address with Browser-Configured Proxy Servers

In addition there are also stand alone proxy servers that allow you to configure your browser to route your browser traffic through them ,after which the servers makes a request for a page on your behalf, and then sends you the results. You can find public proxy server by typing the sentence “proxy list” on search engines’ search box. One such site that provide fresh public proxy list on a daily basis is  proxy-list.org . Bellow is the screenshot from proxy-list org :

Because web-based proxies are mostly available to the public for free, you may not expect too much in terms of its speed reliability except you subscribe to the paid services.

Public Proxy servers are in general divided into three categories:

• Transparent Proxy – This type of proxy server makes the original IP address available via the http headers. These are normally utilized because of their ability to cache websites but don’t provide reliable anonymity to those using them. Yet a transparent proxy will get you around simple IP bans or get around web filter at workplace or schools. They are transparent in the terms that your IP address is disclosed , not transparent in the terms that you don’t know that you are using it.

• Anonymous Proxy - This type of proxy server identifies itself as a proxy server, but doesn’t make the original IP address available. This type of pr provides reliable anonymity for most users and hides your IP address. Distorting Proxy – This type of proxy server identifies itself as a proxy server, but make an false original IP address available through the http headers and conceals your real IP address.

• High Anonymity Proxy – This kind of proxy server doesn’t make available the original IP address and hide your IP address entirely

The risk Of  using anonymous proxy servers

In using a proxy server, all information transferred to the service being used must pass across the proxy server before being sent to the service, mostly unencrypted . It’s consequently possible, and has been attested, for a malicious proxy server to snoop upon everything sent to the proxy: including unencrypted logins and passwords. By chaining proxies which don’t divulge information about the origin of requester, it is possible to obfuscate activities from the eyes of the user’s destination. Still, your footprint will be left on the intermediate hops, which could be exploited . If the policies and administrators of these other proxies are unidentified, the users may fall victim to a security fallacy . The bottom line of this is to be cautious when connecting to proxy servers hide your real IP address, and only use familiar and respectable proxy servers , and never use proxy servers of questionable reputation. Whenever there is no choice but to use obscure proxy servers, don’t pass any confidential information unless it is properly encrypted. So that instead of masking your Identities by using their services to conceal your IP Address you expose your vital information to cyber criminals.

Having a bootable flash disk is very important, especially if you are notebook users who do not have an internal CD ROM. Using a USB bootable to install an operating system (OS) not only makes installation faster, but also can store a very large installation file which is usually stored in the DVD.

Installing the Windows 7 from USB is very easy. You can follow the step-by-step instruction below.

1. Insert the flash disk with at least 4GB of space. You have to format it before you can use it as bootable flash disk.
2. Open Command Prompt by clicking [Start] and type [CMD] in the search box and press [Enter]. The other Alternative is through the following command: Start> All Programs> Accessories> Command Prompt on right clicks and selects [Run as administrator].
3. When the Command Prompt window opens, enter the command / command: DiskPart then click [Enter], LIST DISK and click [Enter]. After you enter the LIST DISK command, it will show your USB drive disk numbers.
4. In this step you must enter all the below commands one by one and press enter.
5. SELECT DISK 1 then click [Enter], (number one is the appropriate number of flash disks you like the picture above)
6. CLEAN then click [Enter],
7. CREATE PRIMARY PARTITION and click [Enter],
8. SELECT PARTITION 1 and then click [Enter],
9. ACTIVE then click [Enter],
10. FORMAT FS = NTFS then click [Enter], (please be patient because the format process will take only a few tens of minutes you type the next command)
11. Assign and then click [Enter],
12. EXIT then click [Enter], (Do not close the command prompt before the whole process is completed).
13. Enter your Windows DVD in optical drive and note the drive letter of  the optical drive and USB flash media disk.
14. Back to command prompt and run the following command: D: CD BOOT and press [Enter], where “D” is the letter code of DVD drives.
15. BOOT CD and press [Enter] then notice will appear a message window which is more or less as follows; BOOTSECT.EXE/NT60 H: (where “H” is the letter code of the flash disk drive)
16. Now Copy the contents of Windows to a USB DVD.

Done , you now have a a bootable Windows 7 USB disk. You can now use to  install Windows 7 from USB on any computer equipped with a feature boot from USB (most motherboards now support this feature).
