Il y a quelque jours, j’ai reçu un ordinateur portable Gericom Overdose 1360e pour maintenance, mis à jour et réparation. Première étape consistait a augmenter la RAM, donc j’ai remplacer la RAM par une barrette de 1Go DDR Sodimm. L’entretien du Windows a été un peu long, car après l’installation de Service Pack 3 sur Windows XP Édition Familiale, il a fallut Défragmenter le disque dure…

FAULT IN NON PAGED AREA

Un erreur rencontré, était par rapport a la mémoire virtuelle. L’erreur a apparue sur un écran bleu. La solution est de vérifier l’état du fichier PAGEFILE.SYS . Il faut que la taille du fichier PAGEFILE.SYS , soit au moins 1.5 fois la RAM installée. Ceci est a définir dans:

Panneau de Configuration > Système > Avancé > Performances > Paramètres > Avancé > Modifier

Une fois dans la fenêtre “Mémoire Virtuelle”, choisissez le disque principale de votre système, et choisissez l’option “Taille gérée par le système”.

Autre manipulation importante a effectuer est d’effacer le fichier PAGEFILE.SYS . Ceci entraîne l’utilisation de l’éditeur de registre. Exécutez la commande “regedit” dans l’outil d’exécuter ou dans l’invite de commande.

Une fois dans l’éditeur de registre, naviguez au clé:

HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management

et changez la valeur de la clé “ClearPageFileAtShutdown” de 0 à 1.

Puis ARRETEZ votre ordinateur. (Boutton Démarrer > Arrêter l’ordinateur > Arrêter )

Maintenant votre PAGEFILE.SYS a été effacé, donc remmettez la valeur de la clé du registre à 0 pour accélérer l’arrêt de votre système.

Si le problème persiste, vérifiez le disque dur, en effectuant une défragmentation avec UltraDefrag, et ensuite vérifiez vos barrettes de RAM, car ceci peut provenir des problème hardware. Pour les anciens, veuillez passer de FAT à NTFS pour le format de votre disque dur. Probablement la réinstallation de Windows pourrait résoudre le problème, si ceci provient des conflits logiciel.

So stay tuned and get your mobile phones ready

The plugin is very nice and easy to implement.

But the size of the pictures it includes in the pages/posts, it far beyond what it really need, and that causes higher page loading times! there are a total of 51 png files (icons for different bookmarking sites) and they size around 70 KB!!

I decided to optimize the png files and make them lighter to get faster loading pages.

And I achieved a total size of 13.6 KB which is around five times lighter!

So now, not only the plugin is working very nice, it’s also optimized by me for faster operations.

One more thing to be done is to make this plugin use jQuery for its scripts and effects. Well, that is to be done by the author himself, cause I am no scripting guru!!

You can download the optimized version of “Social Bookmarks” for wordpress here:

Version 4.0.65 : By Apostolos Dountsis ( http://www.dountsis.com/projects/social-bookmarks/ )

Optimized By: Amir (http://www.amirhmoradi.com/)

Download Social Bookmarks for WordPress – Optimized

Please someone provide info about how to use this plugin with jQuery.

You can read complete history and a lot more information on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozilla_Firefox .

I personally have been using Firefox and Internet Explorer for years. Well, both of them have disadvantages and inconveniences, but in overall i’ve been more satisfied with Firefox.

First of all, Firefox is more stable compared to Internet Explorer. As I experienced more crashes and application errors on Internet Explorer, I had very few crashes on Firefox.

From security point of view, I always felt more secure while browsing with Firefox. On Internet Explorer you get a lot of add-ons which cause severe security issues and most of the time cause application crash.

Even spywares are more common on Internet Explorer.

Some people say that they are used to Internet Explorer and do not want to switch to a new browser! Let me assure you; you won’t find any difficulties when switching to Firefox, because:

- It is very easy to use.

- Imports your Bookmarks, Favorites, and more setting from Internet Explorer if you want, and it does it AUTOMATICALLY, with no headaches!

- It is Very stable.

- You can customize its look to what ever color and style you like. It’s not like IE which forces you to like it!

- You can install and remove the add-ons you like and need. No headaches!

- You can manage your Bookmarks very easily.

- Downloads are managed in a in-built “download manager” where you can pause, start or cancel your downloads.

- You’ll BE SAFE!

- You’ll enjoy surfing the net.

Plus! Google made a pack where you get Firefox 2 and a Google Toolbar and some Google security features which will make your browsing experience more safer and more fun!

Don’t hesitate, GO FOR IT

Firefox 2 is the best!

Now You can Download Windows XP SP3 directly from Microsoft!!

That is a standalone service pack 3 update, and is not the whole Windows XP operating system.

I personally do not recommend slipstreaming the service pack, because of few version conflicts on ms dll files.

So just download and install the Service Pack 3 of Windows XP on your system before anyone else!

PLEASE Read throught the article before downloading…
