Your computer will lag behind and you want to give it a boost? Add them to memory.
By increasing the RAM on your computer's hard drive, which is slower, be less stressed when you open multiple windows or tabs at the same time,
when you manipulate large files when you launch your software when you play, etc. .
In the end, then you will reap improved performance of your computer and a greater working comfort. Whether to improve the performance of a desktop,
a laptop or netbook, adding memory is accessible to everyone.
Just as a first step to check the type and characteristics of the memory used by your computer to see which modules you must buy (DDR, DDR2, DDR3 SO-DIMM, ...) and how much memory you can add. The number of memory connector on the laptop is indeed limited. The manufacturer is Crucial to this analysis tool free online that will automatically give you this information.
Then, by a simple trapdoor under your laptop and your netbook and directly into the housing of your computer, you can easily add your new module and extend
the capacity of RAM your computer.
All you need to finally verify that the module is properly recognized by your computer and Windows.
Find memory compatible with your computer:
With the Crucial manufacturer's online scan tool, you can easily find the type of memory your computer's speed, but also the quantity that you can add.
~So open Crucial site and click the Scan button on my system under Tools Crucial System Scanner.
~Check the box By checking this box and clicking ... and click Scan my system.
~In the dialog box that appears, click Run.
~Allow the program to then make changes to your computer by clicking Yes.
~Your browser is then open to a page showing the results of the analysis. The amount of memory installed, the type and number of free sites are listed. Here,
two memory locations are present which is already used by a module 2GB
~Information on the system manufacturer and model of motherboard are also shown.
~Fill out the form with the information: the manufacturer of your computer or your motherboard in the case of a PC assembler, the range and the model name.
Click Search.
~The service presents you with the recommended memory module for your computer.
~Below, the characteristics of your computer or your motherboard are shown. We learn here that the maximum amount of memory is 4GB
~In our case, we have a site made by 2GB of memory, 1 free slot and 4 GB may not be exceeded. The 2GB module is therefore proposed.
Windows, Linux and the limit of 3 GB:
Most operating systems like Windows or Linux are available in two versions: 32-bit and 64 bit. The difference between the two? The 32-bit Windows or
Linux knows how to use a maximum between 3 and 3.5 GB of memory (depending on your device: graphics card, sound card ... which require a memory area).
The 64-bit version has virtually no limit (Family Premium Windows 7 handles for example up to 16GB of memory).
Note that to use a 64 bit system, only the processor must be compatible 64-bit. Currently, almost all processors on the market are 64-bit,
32-bit processors is at least anecdotal. The Intel Core 2 Duo, Core 2 Quad, Core i7, Core i5, i3 Core, or AMD Athlon 64 X2, AMD Phenom X2/X3/X4/X6
are all built on a 64-bit architecture.
If you have a 32bit system, so there is virtually no interest in going beyond 3 GB of memory.
If you want to go beyond, turn to a 64 bit system. Note that the box of Windows 7 offers two versions: 32 and 64 bit and you can install the one you want. Also,
be aware that it is not possible to update a 32-bit Windows for 64-bit version. You will need to perform a full installation.
Adding memory to your Desktop:
Installing a new memory module in a computer is fairly simple and accessible to everyone. Here is how:
~ Unplug all cables and open the box.
~ Locate the slots for memory cards.

Save the system from getting crashed:
You can ask Windows to record in an event log, time and exact date of crashes occurring on your system. Next computers,
this setting can be enabled or not be.
To activate, you must edit the registry.
~ Click Start, then Run.
~ Enter regedit in the Open text box and click the OK button.
~ Pull the key from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SYSTEM, CurrentControlSet, Control, CrashControl.

~ Then close the Registry Editor and restart your computer for the change is applied.
Save the user environment after a crash:
In most crashes, you can also save all information from the user environment: user profile, permissions, etc.. in an event log.
This information can be used to investigate the causes of a problem.
Once again, it is necessary to modify the registry to enable this setting.
~ Click Start, then Run.
~ Enter regedit in the Open text box and click the OK button.
~ Pull the key from HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SYSTEM, CurrentControlSet, Control, CrashControl.
~ Pull down the Edit menu, and click DWORD Value.

~ Double-click it to edit it. Select the category Hexadecimal Base.
~ Enter 10002 in the Value data field. Click OK.
~ Finally close the registry editor, then restart your computer for the change to take effect.
Saving the memory in case of crash:
When your system fails, you can create an image of the memory of your system that you can use to find the cause of the error.
You can choose between several types of memory dumps. Complete memory: The full memory dump records the entire contents of memory before the system shuts down without explanation. Its size is equivalent to the amount of RAM installed on your computer, which you must add 1 Mo. It is therefore worth a lot of disk space to store this image. So if you have 512 MB of RAM, will dump a 512 + MB or 513 MB Kernel memory: The kernel memory dump records only the memory allocated to the kernel of Windows XP, hardware, operating systems and programs executed by the system. It therefore excludes the memory allocated to software executed by users. The backup process on the hard disk and is accelerated in the event of a crash. The size of the kernel memory dump is approximately one third of the total amount of RAM installed on your computer. This type of image is most interesting, since it is much smaller than the complete memory dump, and it neglects only the memory areas that do not appear to have any relation with the problem. Memory Dump: Finally, the memory dump records the minimum information necessary to identify the cause of the crash. The memory dump saves in less than 64 KB: the stop message and parameters, the list of drivers loaded, the process context, information on the process stopped, the information on thread that stopped.
The memory dump can be useful if you have limited disk space. But you have less chance of finding the cause of errors in the examination, because of the lack of information retrieved.
To set the type to create memory dump during a crash, you must change the system settings.
~ Click the right mouse button on My Computer, then choose Properties.
~ In the System Properties dialog box that opens, click the Advanced tab.
~ Then click the Settings button under Startup and Recovery.
~ Pull down list then Writing debug information, then select the type of image you want to create in a crash, Kernel memory, for example, and click OK.
Install the Recovery Console:
The Windows Recovery Console is designed to help you recover the system if your computer does not start properly or does not start at all.
The Recovery Console can be executed directly by starting your computer from the Windows XP CD. You can also install it on your computer for easier access.
Insert your Windows XP CD in your drive.
~Then click the Start button, then Run.
~Then enter in the Open text box the following command: E: \ i386 \ winnt32.exe / cmdcons where E: is the drive letter in which your Windows XP CD.
~Confirm the installation of the Recovery Console by clicking the Yes button in the dialog box that appears.
~If you are connected to the Internet, the installer tries to download the Recovery Console from the Microsoft website. Press ESC to install directly from your Windows XP CD.
~After a few seconds, a message appears to indicate that the Recovery Console is installed. Click OK, then restart your computer.
~When you next start the computer, Recovery Console will be added to Windows startup menu.
Improving the functionality of the Recovery Console:
By default, access to all drives and all folders on your hard drive and the diskette are not allowed in the Recovery Console. Only the folder where Windows is available.
To change this and allow you to access all folders on your hard drive and all your readers, which is convenient to perform a backup last minute of your sensitive documents, you need to change local security setting.
~Open the Control Panel by clicking Start, Settings, then Control Panel.
~Switch to Classic View if you're not there already, then double-click the Administrative Tools folder.
~Then double-click on Local Security Policy tool.
~In the Security Settings section, scroll element Local Policies, then click the Security Options folder.

~Click the Enabled option in the dialog box that appears, then confirm with OK. You can then close the Local Security Settings window.
Linux provides a DD command which is the powerful UNIX utility. It makes use of Linux kernel makefiles to make boot images.
DD can be used to copy data from one device to another or from one location to another.
Administrator is the only person having rights to execute DD command. You can use the below DD command in Linux operating
system which will help you in various ways.
The uses of DD command are as follows:
~ If you want to take the backup data from one hard disk to another hard disk within the same system. The command is given below:
Code:
# dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb
~ In this “if” specifies input file name and “of” specifies the file where the data has to be copied. If you mention source device in target device and vice versa then you might loss all your data.
~ If you want to restore the hard disk with the image file of another hard disk then use the following command:
Code:
# dd if=hdadisk.img of=/dev/hdb
~ To copy the data from the floppy into the image format you need to type the following command:
Code:
# dd if=/dev/fd0 of=myfloppy.img
In the input file specify the name of floppy location and in output give the name of floppy image file.
~Type the below command to read data from one location and write it to another location. The command is given below:
Code:
dd if= of= bs= ("USUALLY" some power of 2, and usually not less than 512 bytes (ie, 512, 1024, 2048, 4096, 8192, 16384, but can be any reasonable whole integer value.) skip= seek= conv=< conversion >
~ If you want to remove CD, DVD or USB from the system then type the below command. This command will rescue it from the system.
Code:
~ You can backup a partition. For taking the backup you need to specify the partition name in input file and then specify the path or image file where you want to take backup. The dd command for taking backup is given below:
Code:
# dd if=/dev/hda1 of=~/partition1.img
~You can create an iso file from the source file. So we can enter the CD or DVD and create an iso file from the data contained in them. The dd command for creating iso is given below:
Code:
# dd if=/dev/cdrom of=tgsservice.iso bs=2048
Thus dd command reads one block at time, executes it and writes to the targeted output file.
