Connecting to internet using mobile partner or some other program is simple. But it consumes your system resources(around 200 MB of RAM). You can simply save your resources by using command prompt. This method is applicable only on Windows platform.

First, install the device driver and create the dial-up connection, or just install the mobile partner(or software that came along with your modem) and connect using it(it will automatically create the dial-up connection). now you can exit that program.

Here is the procedure to connect using command prompt:

Open command prompt
Type the following command

rasdial "CONNECTION NAME"

Ex: rasdial "TATA DOCOMO INTERNET"

To disconnect,

rasdial "CONNECTION NAME" /Disconnect

You can also automate this process by creating batch file.
Connect
Open any text editor and copy the following code

:Redial
rasdial "CONNECTION NAME"
if %errorlevel% == 0 exit
goto Redial;

Replace the CONNECTION NAME with your connection name(you can rename it) and save it as connect.bat

Disconnect
Open any text editor and type the following

rasdial "CONNECTION NAME" /Disconnect
exit

Replace the CONNECTION NAME with your connection name(you can rename it) and save it as disconnect.bat

Save them at the location of your convenience and just double click them to connect and disconnect a dial-up connection.

Recently I faced an issue with my laptop keyboard. Some of the keys are not working.
As it is still under warranty, I thought of replacing the keyboard.
When I contacted customer support, after listening to the problem he asked whether I tried DRAINING.
Then he explained me the procedure, and guess what - it's working perfectly again.

Here is the procedure of DRAINING:

First shut down the laptop/notebook
Remove the battery
Also unplug the adapter
Now press and hold the power button for about 25-30 seconds
Insert the battery again
Now power on the laptop by pressing power button(normal booting)

Now your keyboard will work again normally.
If the problem still persists, consider replacing the keyboard.

Source: I tried this method from Blinddumb and it worked.

Don't get panic when you see this thing, and also don't consult customer care or some other repair shop to waste some bucks.

Usually this error will be found when you made a unsuccessful attempt of dual booting your Mac with Windows.

To fix this error, restart your Mac and hold down option key, after hearing chime on booting.

If you don't want to install windows, then select the Mac Recovery partition. Then from the menu on the top, select the boot disk option and select the drive in which Mac is present. Restart and enjoy...

If you wish to install Windows, then insert bootable disk and select the Windows partition that you had created using boot camp, and proceed with installation.

In both cases you will be able to boot normally.

Case 1: If you are on a internet connection that doesn't require any proxy settings, everything works fine.

Case 2: If your internet connection requires some proxy settings(without authentication), then try this method:

Open internet explorer and set the proxy under Internet Options>Connections>Lan Settings.

Now open Command Prompt with Administrative privileges(On start screen type "command prompt", right click on the command prompt app and click on "Run as administrator" which is visible on the bottom of the screen). Now type the following command and press enter.

netsh winhttp import proxy source=ie

Restart the PC and check out.

Case 3: If your internet connection requires some proxy settings with username and password, then try this method:

Install fiddler
Now please install this addon
Open fiddler and click on Win8 config, then click "Excempt All"
Restart your system
Set the proxy details in proxyfier or proxyfire
Always open fiddler first and you can use it in tray with CTRL+M, then proxyfier(remove from startup)

Now you are ready to use metro apps with proxy settings.

I tried to activate my Windows 8 Enterprise, and to my surprise I can't find a way to enter the product key. I later found this method to be useful.

First open the command prompt. To do so, press Windows + r key and type cmd and press enter, or just press Windows key and type command prompt and hit it. Now type the following command and press enter:

SLUI.EXE 3

Now you will see a window prompting you to enter the key. Enter the key and press activate. Bingo...

Safe Mode is a great way to get into your system when something won't allow you to start up normally. Troubleshooting becomes a breeze when corrupted drivers and files aren't loaded that prevents a system from functioning. It used to be as easy as pressing F8 when the system starts up, but doing so with Windows 8 will take you to Automatic Repair Mode. The trick to getting back to good old fashioned Safe Mode? Hold down the Shift key and press F8 while booting up.

This takes you to the Recovery mode. Select "advanced options," then "troubleshoot," then the "advanced options" again (there are a lot of advanced options). Select Windows Startup Settings and finally the Restart button. This will reboot the computer and give you the option to boot into Safe Mode.

If you need to get into Safe Mode from within Windows, open the dialog box (the Windows key + R) and type "msconfig" (no quote marks). Select the Boot tab and check the Safe boot box. The system will continually boot into Safe Mode until you go back and uncheck the box.
