How To Disable Automatic CHKDSK Option

Disable Automatic CHKDSK Option
Windows startup after a sudden shutdown leads to an annoying feature chkdsk. It automatically checks the entire drive for any infected files. This checking can be skipped by pressing any key before it starts during the blue screen which says:
"Checking file system on C:
The type of file system is NTFS.
One of the drives needs to be checked for consistency. You may cancel the disk check, but it is strongly recommended that you continue.
To skip disk checking, press any key within 10 second(s)."

The problem is that skipping is only a temporary option and though it is highly recommended, this chkdsk can be disabled manually. Even if the checking is skipped, it would prompt again during the next windows boot up.
1. start->Run -> cmd
2. and Type chkntfs /x    (for example : chkntfs /x d:  )
3. Try to type all drives
4. Restart your Computer

MICROSOFT TOUCH MOUSE

Microsoft Hardware has designed a new computer mouse called Microsoft Touch Mouse which adds touch features on top of the usual mouse functionality.

The mouse looks like any other mouse albeit with a weird form factor on first glance. It offers no mouse buttons in the traditional sense of the word, only a touch interface that makes up the upper half of the mouse body.

The touch interface reacts to touches. It is possible for instance to left-click and right-click by taping the finger in the right locations on the mouse surface. Microsoft states that it can do everything that a normal mouse can do which would indicate that there should be an emulation of a middle-mouse button as well. That’s however not confirmed and not shown in any of the videos.

It uses BlueTrack Technology to work on virtually any surface without difficulties. The USB Nano transceiver can pick up signals at a 30-foot range.

here is the video showing how it works

The New Social product Today Google+: All the Details You Need to Know

Google revealed the first five features coming with its new social product today, called Google-plus-625x342Google+. At first glance, Google+ seems to be a worthy competitor to Facebook, if for no other reason than ease of use and the ability to share certain things with certain people in the different facets of your life.

Google+ brings together all of your friends in one place, and lets you simply and easily designate and organize all of your contacts into different groups. Additionally, Google+ will incorporate some cool chat and mobile features that can come in handy when uploading photos and organizing get-togethers. There are much more details to uncover about Google+, but take a gander at the first five features that will come with the social service below.

  • Circles — This is basically your friends hub. Instead of grouping everyone together as your "friend," you can create different circles for the different types of people in your life. For example, you can have groups for friends, family, co-workers, acquaintances, and your once-a-week softball team. It's super easy to make a new group and add contacts to it — just drag and drop.
  • Hangouts — The old-school chat room gets an update. Send a broadcast to your friends that you're online and ready to chat face to face, and your pals can drop by your "hangout" to video chat with you.
  • Sparks — Designate your interests in Sparks, and Google+ will collect articles, videos, and photos of the things you love from around the web to read when you're free (like an RSS reader). You can even share these items with specific circles of friends instead of all of your friends.

See more, including some demo videos after the break.

  • Instant Upload — With Instant Upload, your mobile photos and videos are automatically uploaded to the web.
  • Huddle — A group messaging system, Huddle allows you to chat with a number of friends on the go via your mobile phone.
