Disable Windows Autosleep, Standby Or Hybernate

Image
If you have noticed that keeping a system idle for some time say 10 minutes or so, dims the computer screen (by default) or 30 minutes puts the computer to sleep. This is the default settings of the power plan in Windows 7. But there are occasions when you need to run the system for than this time without getting it sleep or hibernated. Windows used to have a fairly simple hardware suspend command called “standby”. However, this operation took a while to execute (both entering and exiting standby) and it was somewhat unreliable when performed repeatedly, on certain hardware or with certain applications running. Sleep is meant to alleviate these problems by just serializing the current state into memory and then shutting down all devices other than the RAM. With the OS state simmering in memory like that, entering and exiting sleep is nearly instantaneous. However, the dark side to all this is if there is a power outage while the computer is in sleep, all of the unsaved data is lost...

There are no shortage of remote control apps in the Android market. These remote control apps allow you to send/receive SMS in your browser, receive Android notification on your desktop, control Windows 7, or even stream media to/from your devices. With Remote Web Desktop, you can now control your Android phone from your desktop browser. Unlike many remote control apps that worked only on WiFi connection, the best thing I love about Remote Web Desktop is that it works in 3G connection as well. Unlike WiFi, which is a direct connection via the router, the 3G connection works via a bridged mode. It is not as straightforward, but the interface and speed are very smooth. Another good thing about Remote We Desktop is that it doesn’t require you to install a separate app on your desktop. This means that it is cross-platform compatible and can work anywhere with a browser. Getting Started To get it working, first install the Remote Web Desktop app (free version) from Android market. Open up t...

Image
Cloud Experience is a recently launched state of art, real-time syncing, backup and storage solution. It is still in beta stage and includes a free plan with 10GB storage and 1GB traffic.
