Fix: Encountering frequent system restarts?

Many of us encounter the “Automatic Restart” of  Windows while we are in a hurry to submit an application or while giving a final touch to our important tasks. We feel so desperate and frustrated when the PC restarts suddenly without our permission spoiling our toil to complete a work.

The Automatic restart is a mechanism enabled to operate by default in all the operating system when the system or any executable application crash. This saves our system and prevents similar future crashes… But, when this feature annoys us by interrupting our hard work, we search for a perfect fix …. Isn’t it?

The automatic restart may be due to a BSoD or a  Software crash or something else… That is beyond the scope of discussion now..

What you need is a remedy for your problem..Right?

No worries…Here is the fix to your problem.

1. Click Start  -> Control Panel. 
2. Click System and Security link and choose System link and move on to step 4
3. In some cases where, System and Security  option is missing, you may find System icon… Double  Click on it
4. Choose the Advanced system settings or in case of  XP Advanced tab of  the System Properties Window.

Glorify our Motherland…..Proud to be an Indian

The famous verses written by our renowned BankimChandra Chatterjee :

vande maataram..
vande maataram…maataram…

sujalaam sufalaam malayajaśeetalaam
śasya śyaamalaaṃ maataram
vande maataram

śubhra jyotsnaa pulakita yaamineem
phulla kusumita drumadalaśobhineem
suhaasineeṃ sumadhura bhaaṣiṇeem
sukhadaaṃ varadaaṃ maataram
vande maataram

The two Sanskrit words “Vande Maataram” play a vital role in bringing a strong spirit to every heart that spells them….( “Vande Maataram” is translated below)

Vande --- I salute

Maataram--- to (my) mother

Ok… Is just singing “Vande Maataram” and “Jana Gana Mana” itself is sufficient to glorify our motherland…

If you ask this question to the bottom of your heart, it’ll say definitely a big “No”….

 So, what ‘we’ can do?

Remembering “Vande Maataram” should not be “One Day Maathiram” (i.e  for a single day )….

It must be in the hearts of every Indian to strive hard to make our country excel in all fields…

Ok… Everyone knows that it is easy to advice or to say something to other s and go….

But think for a while how the careless attitude of people diminishes our motherland’s path to glory…

Every INDIAN is now aware of the scams, unearthed amount of black money which otherwise could have been used for the sake of  many poor people and for the improvement of our nation....

A Big Salute to ‘Anna Hazare’ who has taken an initiative to anti – corruption movement and still struggling hard to pass a strong lokpal bill with his committee ….It’s nice to see and hear that he  is continually being supported by large number of people till date…

But why does this “lokpal” issue is in talk now? Obviously, because of the corrupt people who spread their wings in leaps and bounds without leaving a single field....

The lokpal could have become an unnecessary thought, if every INDIAN was true to his/her heart and loyal in his/her work… But, the greediness of people is grown enormous and stimulated this initiative for lokpal…

Set apart the discussions about “what the lokpal bill can do in future?” and just think what ‘we’ can do for our “Motherland to become a Wonderland”…

We people take oath for an English New Year ...

 But why can't we take a oath now ... in this auspicious "Independence Day"....

Let us take a new oath to glorify our country:

  I will never give or get bribe

 I will keep my surroundings clean

  I will fight against corruption to my best

I hope all of you who really want to “adore our motherland “ that made you enter into this world and the one which educated you with abundant worldly knowledge, will take the oath…

Please share this and become a source of a good cause…

Indian National Anthem--- Best in the World by Unesco?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are u prone to forwarding superstitious mails that announces

“U ll get a call from your best friend or some xxx if u forward this mail to more than 20 people…If u ignore, you have to face unforeseeable consequences”

Are you a ‘sincere’ person who doesn’t wanna break the “Chain mail” sent by your friend which reads like

“Forward this mail and help the XXX person who needs surgery…If you forward, the person will get some amount for each mail being forwarded”.... But the fact is that "No organisation has ever given funds for mail or sms forwarding..."

If you victimize yourself to forwarding these kinds of mails, then you are definitely in the list of spammers and hoaxers…

Read the recent hoax which have been floating around since January 2010 that has got a rebirth now again via Facebook, Twitter and  also via mails too….

I think you guessed it ….

Indeed, I’m speaking about the Striking Info'

  “Indian National Anthem is selected as the Best National Anthem of 2011 by UNESCO”

How many of us have checked whether this is true or not by visiting either UNESCO site or Govt. of India’s site before Tweeting ,forwarding and sharing it in facebook?

Definitely,  a very few…

If you check it, you’ll know that this news is bitterly a hoax wasting our precious time and memory of mail server too L 

  

It’s so pitiable and horrible to see how people believe so easily anything they read on internet and now on Twitter and Facebook when it comes to our nation. When some people tried to abuse our national anthem saying that it was written in praise of King George V (not true), we believed.And now when someone says that India’s national anthem has been chosen as the best national anthem by UNESCO, we heartily accept and spread that too....

First thing,we must understand is that UNESCO is not setup to select the best national anthem.... that too by comparing several nations and hurting their natives......As for every citizen, their National Anthem is the best (Hope, No one can disagree with this..Right?)

Don’t fall a prey to the Brilliant Creativity of the Netizens spams... 

Hope You won’t forward contents without properly analyzing it in future…

If you don't have time to analyze, better avoid forwarding it at least…

Please........Save your time of forwarding and make it useful for some good cause…
