Windows 7 tip: Drag a file to taskbar to open the file

[Image]
When you try to drop files on quick launch bar in windows 7 instead of opening the file, you will be prompted to pin the file to taskbar.

What you need to do : hold down the Shift key while dragging the file to the taskbar button, and it will change to “Open with Application”

and thus you can open the file with the application to which you dragged the file to.

BlueScreenView for BSOD crash information


Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) in windows is something you get when a critical system file crashes etc... and the system is shut down to prevent further damage.

BlueScreenView scans all your minidump files created during 'blue screen of death' crashes, and displays the information about all crashes in one table.

For each crash, BlueScreenView displays the minidump filename, the date/time of the crash, the basic crash information displayed in the blue screen (Bug Check Code and 4 parameters), and the details of the driver or module that possibly caused the crash (filename, product name, file description, and file version).

Maldivian currency note: one of the most beautiful



I always liked Maldivian currency notes because it was very nice and beautiful to me and its not only for me that it is, I found the currency in a list called "The Most Beautiful Currencies in the World" and in Hilaths blog.

Maldivian Rufiyaa is described as follow in the article:
The Maldives (Rufiyaa)

"A true beauty, this bill is from the Republic of Maldives in the Indian Ocean, a chain of about 1,300 islands and cays scattered for 500 miles southwest of India. Beyond fishing and collecting coconuts—the centerpiece on this bill—there's little livelihood, and Maldives is one of the poorest countries in the world. This is doubly ironic, since cowrie shells (shown as part of the decorative border along the bottom) were the world's first international commodity-currency, and the Maldive Islands were their primary source."

Some other nice currencies:
Comoros (Comorian Franc)
Cook Islands (Cook Island Dollars)
Faroe Islands (Kronurs)
The French Pacific Territories (Franc)
Hong Kong (Hong Kong Dollars)
Iceland (Kronurs)
New Zealand (New Zealand Dollars)

I installed ubuntu on a partition and really never used it a lot. so I uninstalled it. But the shocking thing is that, I uninstalled it correctly and the way how it should be uninstalled without any guidance. I was really surprised when I show the following 2 videos since its the same as how I did it.

windows xp:


What you need: Windows xp installation disk
All you have to do is: delete ubuntu partition and do the "fixmbr" command in recovery console.

Windows vista:


What you need: Windows vista installation disk
All you have to do is: delete ubuntu partition and do the "Bootrec.exe /FixMbr" command in command prompt which is in the "Repair your computer" link.
