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:

1. Install fiddler
   
2. Now please install this addon
3. Open fiddler and click on Win8 config, then click "Excempt All"
4. Restart your system
5. Set the proxy details in proxyfier or proxyfire
6. 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.
