As already announced earlier in the year 2008, the support for Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) and Windows 2000 will expire on July 13, 2010, while for Windows Vista Release to Manufacturing (RTM) will expire on April 13, 2010. After this date, public support for this product will be end, and Microsoft will no longer provide or support services, and security updates at the same time, Windows 2000 Server also will stop the service Extended Support for Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2003 R2 will move services from Mainstream Support to Extended Support, which will end on July 14, 2015.
Microsoft recommends that users of Windows XP SP2, Server 2000 or 2000 client to upgrade to the latest OS such as Windows 7, Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008. Is this a sign that our favorite Windows XP will soon be a memory?
For personal users may be only the cost and installation techniques, which will serve as a consideration in deciding to do this, but not so for corporate users.
To do this on the Company is not as easy as you imagine, the companies need to think and prepare about :
- 1. License purchase costs, whether it is to purchase a new license or upgrade license fees for
- For the server should also note his license call
- Human resources or IT staff who will perform the system upgrade
- Compatibility hardware drivers and system applications that previously used.
- Time to upgrade, keep in mind as well as to upgrade the system to do backups of all documents as well and email users.
For companies that have large funds may be this is not be a problem, but what about for small companies, I hope Microsoft can provide a good solution for this.

As we all know that very often the computer problem occurs because computer drivers or Windows driver are not updated, indeed sometimes we feel to keep always drivers updates sometimes not a very necessary, especially if the condition of your computer (hardware / software) are now running with optimal and there is no problem in it. But even so, for some hardware is recommended that we keep the driver update. This needs to be done to maintain the computer system does not have a problem. Did you can imagine if your computer suddenly lost sound, but then you really need it for a presentation, then you have not had time to download driver or update your sound driver .
Usually when we want to update the drivers, we will take steps like the following below :
1. Search new drivers, usually with internet browsing
2. Driver downloads, then
3. Update / install these drivers,
You have to do it one by one step above on every hardware that we install, so I think is no wonder if we tend to be reluctant to do all off these, because it ‘s consume and waste many time and energy.
But now you no longer need to do all the steps as above, there is another way that is very easy to do that, you just need to install driver download software on your computer, with a single click this software will automatically update drivers on any hardware that you plug as sound drivers, display drivers, motherboard drivers and others,

Maybe almost all computer user has had experience of having their PC crash or hang, and sometime that problem make your data gone, so maybe you will lost your email, your mail contact address, your document and all the important file. So here the option for your consideration, to prevent your data being lost :
1. Check the components hardware. Occasionally a computer data recovery effort will not even be required at all. While it might seem like a hard drive has crashed, another component may be to blame. For example, the mother board or power supply might be faulty. Therefore, it makes sense to check these things before writing off the hard drive. If it’s unclear that these parts might be to blame, enlisting professional help might be in order.
2. Repair Operating System. If a your computer will still not boot up, computer data recovery in this case might require repairing or replacing corrupt core operating system files. To do this, follow to repair the OS.
3. Data recovery software programs. If the operating system or hardware issues are not blame for the failure and the computer will still boot up, a computer data recovery disk might help restore missing or accidentally deleted files. There are programs available from computer shops and online that are specifically designed to help with data recovery efforts.
4. Professional data recovery services. At now many companies that specialize in computer data recovery. They have the necessary hardware and software tools required to be able to recover files that individuals will not have at home or in the office. While these services can be costly, I’m sure that if your data is restored, you’ll agree that the expense is worth it. Beyond regular computer professional services that specialize in data recovery, computer forensics companies might be able to help out in extreme cases (for example, computers damaged in the case of fire or flood).
Computer data recovery is possible even when a hardware crash or failure has occurred. While the results will vary depending on the severity of the crash, the cause and the methods used, it is possible to retrieve files and data off of even the most severely damaged of hard drives.

This installation file contains the 32 and 64 bit versions of Macrium Reflect. The correct version will be automatically installed. – Macrium.com
CNET editors’ review – Backing up your computer shouldn’t be a tedious task. Macrium Reflect Free Edition makes file backup incredibly easy thanks to its intuitive user interface and helpful wizards. Installing the program did confuse us a bit, because although it’s a free program, it refers to purchasing the program, and you’re given a confirmation number. On top of that, the program recommends that you view the online tutorials before getting started, but you might have some trouble deciphering them unless you speak Italian. Luckily, the built-in Help menu is more than adequate and written in English. The user interface is simple but professional in appearance. Intuitive commands line the top of the window, and tabs reveal options for disk images, partitions, XML definitions, and scheduled backups. A helpful wizard guides you through the process of setting up your backup. We were able to quickly select our backup location (local hard disk, network, CD/DVD). Before proceeding, it provides you with a summary of your backup so that you can see the backup type, destination, compression type, and password protection. Here is also where you can make advanced configurations to the compression levels and file sizes. The program did slow our computer while it worked its magic, and we were unable to browse or work with other resource-intensive programs at the same time. However, we were able to watch the backup process, and the program successfully backed up our C Drive without a hitch. If you’re looking for a simple but reliable backup program, we highly recommend Macrium Reflect Free Edition to all users. – Download.com

As more and more businesses rely on computers for the day to day success of their business, businesses are packing more computers in to offices, so that each member of staff has a PC and is truly efficient.
This is excellent, as the businesses are investing in the Technology, but eventually these businesses will discover they computers begin to run slow, then stop! The reason being, most organizations, do not invest in the actual computer room, this is the room dedicated to accommodating the servers and where the network infrastructure is terminated. It’s just the same as having a Formula 1 car and putting standard unleaded fuel in it, it will run but the performance will be no were near what it should be.
An independent survey illustrated this, by poling 50 top UK manufacturers, only 16 had a dedicated Computer Room, that had the relevant security in place to protect their investment, 3 used what you would call a cupboard to house the main server. One in particular stored the server in a room 3 feet x 4 feet, with the monitor balanced on the server while the keyboard was on the floor and this was a leading Global manufacturer worth over $5 billion!
To build the ideal Computer Room, you will need:
1. An access control solution. This can be a simple keypad entry system set a 4 digit access code and press the digits to gain access, or a more complete swipe card system, that logs each entry in to the room and sends an email to the Network administrator when someone tries to gain access when they don’t have the necessary privileges.
2. A false floor or suspended ceiling, either one of these are necessary for both structured cabling that runs the army of computers in the offices and air conditioning for cooling of the servers, to ensure the servers don’t crash.
3. KVM switches, these are the devices that can be used to monitor banks of servers from a single monitor and keyboard. KVM stands for Keyboard, video and mouse. The switches can be daisy chained together so that they can control and manage up to 345 servers per monitor, keyboard and mouse. These switches have a fantastic ROI, as they save money on the monitor, keyboards and mice that the business would purchase, as well as the extra expense of increased air conditioning to reduce the heat from the monitors and most importantly save a huge amount of space.
4. Storage of the servers. There are 2 types of storage, rack mount cabinets for rack mount servers and open LAN racking units that store free standing servers, monitors and keyboards etc. These units can be arranged, so they store 20 free standing servers with 1 monitor, KVM switch and keyboard controlling them, they are modular and more flexible for the ever expanding computer room and most importantly the most cost effective solution.
5. Air conditioning: If you have ever been in a computer room when 40 servers have been running for 2 hours, you will know how much cooling they require and this is paramount!
6. Structured cabling: These are the cables that connect each computer and if you were to trace each cable, they would run back to the computer room and to the server. These are normally classified as Category 5e or Category 6 data cabling and there are many Global manufactures of data cabling solutions.

It happens all of the time because nobody is perfect. It’s so easy for anyone to get distracted and accidentally delete an important file. I know plenty of people who’ve done this, including me. Here is the most important thing to remember: Undeleting files has a very high probability of success, but it depends on whether some other data has overwritten the file you need to recover. Running undelete or getting a recovery expert is the only ways to find out. You may be wondering why you just can’t you just look inside the recycle bin on your desktop and use the search function in the start menu? You can try this technique first to see if it does the trick. If you have already tried this and were unsuccessful, there are two more options: An undelete utility and file recovery services. Both have their advantages and disadvantages, but software is where you want to begin. How to get back your data In order to recover deleted files on your computer, the following conditions must be in place: The lost file must still exist in the directory. The sectors that were used by the deleted file must not be overwritten yet. The file must not have been fragmented. Directory: If you want to recover your files, the deleted file should still be available in the directory. In other words the undelete process requires that the lost data you are recovering not bee overwritten by new or different data created in the same directory. Sector: In addition to the directory, it is important that sectors themselves, where the original, lost file was located, not be overwritten with a new file. Fragmented files: If you really want to succeed with the undelete process, the file you are recovering should not have been fragmented since it was deleted. The sectors of the disk which once held your data must maintain it’s sequential order, undisturbed and not fragmented. You can recover your lost files Files that were accidentally deleted can usually be recovered without problems, but you need to move quickly before another file is saved in its place. If this happens, there is nothing you can do to correct it. Don’t wait a minute longer – take action now and begin downloading and using undelete software, or contact a disk expert. These two methods are the only way to know for sure if your lost data can be recovered. Ken Roberts recovers the simplest situations like undelete to the most severe problems like a dead hard drive. He believes the real underlying problem in data loss however is people don’t know what to do because most of them have never experience data loss. This data recovery article will inform the uniformed to help them make the best educated decision to recover their data.

Actual Keylogger is a free key logger that records every keystroke to an encrypted log file with the title of the window that was active at that moment. Actual Keylogger runs hidden in the background and automatically logs all keystrokes. The interface can be password protected. Only the person who knows a special key combination can control Actual Keylogger. You can view the reports as HTML or plain text. Version 2.4 may include Work with big number of records is optimized. The program installation software is changed. Free. No limitations. Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, 2000, XP, 2003 Server. – ActualKeylogger.com
Editor’s review of Actual Keylogger – Who says you can’t run a spy operation on the cheap? Actual Keylogger lets you record every keystroke typed on a computer, and it doesn’t cost a cent. It can’t snap screenshots or automatically e-mail reports, but it’s decently equipped and surprisingly convenient for a freeware program. It’s reasonably stealthy, too. You can conceal its folder, disable its record in the Add/Remove Programs dialog, hide its shortcuts, encrypt its logs and password-protect its settings. Unfortunately, the program process itself is unprotected, and a savvy user could easily spot it and stop it. But for no-cost surveillance of an easy target, Actual Keylogger is hard to beat. – Download.com

Warning! Back up your data and/or set a restore point before installing new programs or running any cleaners, as deleting necessary files will disable your computer. Infected websites and downloads are more likely now than ever. Before downloading files make sure your virus scanner is updated and always scan a download before installing
