HAL.DLL Missing or Corrupt


If you get an error regarding a missing or corrupt hal.dll file, it might simply be the BOOT.INI file on the root of the C: drive that is misconfigured
  1. Insert and boot from your WindowsXP CD.
  2. At the first R=Repair option, press the R key
  3. Press the number that corresponds to the correct location for the installation of Windows you want to repair.
    Typically this will be #1
  4. Type bootcfg /list to show the current entries in the BOOT.INI file
  5. Type bootcfg /rebuild to repair it
  6. Take out the CD ROM and type exit

Services You Can Disable


There are quite a few services you can disable from starting automatically.
This would be to speed up your boot time and free resources.
They are only suggestions so I suggestion you read the description of each one when you run Services
and that you turn them off one at a time.

Some possibilities are:

Setting Capslock, Numlock, Scroll Lock


If you want to set the startup state for any or all of these keys,
you just need to edit the registry.
  1. Start Regedit
  2. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Control Panel \ Keyboard
  3. Open InitialKeyboardIndicators
  4. Change the value to one of the following numbers
    0 - All Keys off
    1 - Caps Lock on
    2 - Num Lock on
    4 - Scroll Lock on
    For multiple keys, add their values:
    3 - Caps Lock and Num Lock on
    5 - Caps Lock and Scroll Lock on
    6 - Num Lock and Scroll Lock on
    7 - Caps Lock, Num Lock, and Scroll Lock on
  5. Log off and back on again

Common Control Panel Applets


The follow are some common Control Panel Applets that are located in the \windows\system32 directory.
If you find yourself using any of these frequently, then you can simply make shortcuts to them on your desktop.
appwiz.cpl
 Add/Remove Programs
desk.cpl
 Display Properties
firewall.cpl
 Firewall Settings
inetcpl.cpl
 Internet Options
mmsys.cpl
 Sound and Audio
ncpa.cpl
 Network Connections
nusrmgr.cpl
 User Accounts
powercfg.cpl
 Power Options
sysdm.cpl
 System Properties
wscui.cpl
 Security Center
wuaucpl.cpl
 Automatic Updates Configuration

Viewing Installed Drivers


If you want to see a list of installed drivers, you can run the driverquery program
There are a lot of available switches to view different types of information.
On use can be to export to a CSV file for viewing in Excel
An example would then be:
Driverquery  /v  /fo  csv  > drivers.csv

Hiding Manage My Computer


If you want to remove Manage My Computer from My Computer
  1. Start Regedit
  2. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER / Software / Microsoft / Windows / CurrentVersion / Policies / Explorer
  3. Create a DWORD value called NoManageMyComputerVerb
  4. Set the value to 1
  5. Reboot

Taking Ownership Of a Folder


Sometimes when you reinstall WindowsXP, you can receive an Access Denied error when trying to open a previous user's directory.
To take ownership of that folder again:
  1. Log on with an account that has administrator rights
  2. Right click on the folder

How to get What you want

As you keep reading, you will be pleasantly surprised at what you discover. You see, most people don’t know about this, which is why they are chasing something they don’t have to chase.


  • What YOU Want?
    The first thing you have to get clear about is exactly what you want. Do you want to have a dream life and live someplace warm? Do you want to find your soul mate, or find work that makes you amazingly fulfilled and happy?

    Ask these questions of yourself right now and pick something that you really think would make a big difference in your life if you had it today.

  • The Truth About Middlemen
    We've been told that when we get stuff, we will be happy. And, you probably think that when you have something, when you are a certain way, or when you're with a special person, you will be happy.

    We've all been there, and I'm still there from time to time. We are human, so we will feel these feelings now and then. But the truth of the matter is that every one of these “things” are middlemen to what we really want.

  • Thinking Makes It So
    When you really think about it, haven't you felt good, at peace, and fulfilled without having all the things that you thought would make you happy? And haven’t you gotten what you wanted and not felt how you thought you would feel? It is not the external things and events that make us happy, but what is inside of us.

    We've all been happy at one point or another, which means that you can be happy whenever you want. The things that we are truly after are good feelings. It’s all on the inside.

    We want to feel good, and we want to avoid feeling bad. All our fears are just about us being afraid of feeling bad in the future. However, when you think and worry about your fears, you feel bad instantly, so in essence you are replaying the event you’re afraid of over and over in your head, which makes it happen now.

  • Feeling, Then Getting
    There's an easier way to get exactly what you want, which is to feel good now and then go after the things that you prefer to have, be or do.

    So how do you get to these feelings underneath the things?

    That's a great question, and the answer is very simple. Actually, the answer is a question. Let's say you want the perfect relationship. In order to get to the bottom of that and discover the feeling, all you have to do is ask yourself the following question: What would that give me that I wouldn't otherwise have?

    When you get the first answer, keep asking that question until you get to the end of the line. And when you get there, notice where in your body you're feeling the feelings and how they move around, if they move.

    This will instantly give you the feeling that you're after. You don't have to use the middleman to get there, because you can feel it now.

  • What Would Happen If?
    What would happen if you felt good right now? As you read this, you may doubt what I'm saying, because after all, we have to work hard to feel good, or at least that's what we've been told.

    Who knows if this is true?

    And why wouldn't you want to feel good all the while you're working towards what you want to get from life? Isn't it easier to feel good while making tremendous progress? Obviously, sometimes you'll get stuck in a negative thought pattern, but you can always return to feeling good if you really want to.

    Remember, you can get exactly what you want. You can feel amazing right now.

HTML tags


We know that HTML is a markup language and in the above we use many of the tags to markup tags.
<html>
<title>
<body> etc are the tags of HTML
Every tag consists of a tag name, sometimes followed by an optional list of tag attributes , all placed between opening and closing brackets (< and >).
According to the HTML standard, tag and attribute names are not case-sensitive. There's no difference in effect between <head>, <Head>, <HEAD>, or even <HeaD>; they are all equivalent. But with XHTML, case is important: all current standard tag and attribute names are in lowercase.
The basic structure for all HTML documents is simple and should include the following minimum elements or tags:
·         <html> - The main container for HTML pages
·         <head> - The container for page header information
·         <title> - The title of the page
·         <body> - The main body of the page
۞Remember that before an opening <html> tag, an XHTML document can contain the optional XML declaration, and it should always contain a DOCTYPE declaration indicating which version of XHTML it uses.

The structure of HTML document


An HTML document starts and ends with <html> and </html> tags. These tags tell the browser that the entire document is composed in HTML. Inside these two tags, the document is split into two sections.
► The <head>...</head> elements, which contain information about the document such as title of the document, author of the document etc. Information inside this tag does not display outside.
The <body>...</body> elements, which contain the real content of the document that you see on your screen.

Creating HTML Document:


Creating an HTML document is easy. To begin HTML coding we need to things.
i)=A text editor
ii)=A web browser
Here notepad is the most basic of simple-text editors.

The basic format of HTML
<html>
 
<head>
 
<title>
 
</title>
 
</head>
 
<body>
 
</body>
 
</html>
There are four parts of HTML
a)<html>
   </html>
b) <head>
   </head>
c) <title>
    </title>
d) <body>
    </body>
 
The full procedure to create a web page using HTML:
*        Open Notepad or another text editor.
*       At the top of the page type <html>.
*      On the next line, indent five spaces and now add the opening header tag: <head>.
*      On the next line, indent ten spaces and type <title> </title>.
*       Go to the next line, indent five spaces from the margin and insert the closing header tag: </head>.
*         Five spaces in from the margin on the next line, type<body>.
*    Now drop down another line and type the closing tag right below its mate: </body>.
*       Finally, go to the next line and type </html>.
*        In the File menu, choose Save As.
*     In the Save as Type option box, choose All Files.
*        Name the file template.htm.
*       Click Save.
Example: copy and paste the below code to see the example of an HTML page
<html>
<head>
<title>This is title</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Heading=INFOJANALA.BLOGSPOT.COM</h1>
<p>Description start here........</p>
</body>
</html>
Now our first html page is created by notepad which can open with a browser.
Here <html>, <head>,...<p>, <h1> etc. are called HTML tags. HTML tags are building blocks of an HTML document.We will learn all HTML tags in the next lesson.

Introduction of HTML


The elaboration of HTML is Hypertext Markup Language. It is the most widely used language to write Web pages.

As its name suggests, HTML is a markup language.
****        Hypertext refers to the way in which Web pages (HTML documents) are linked together. When you click a link in a Web page, you are using hypertext.
*****      Markup Language describes how HTML works. With a markup language, you simply "mark up" a text document with tags that tell a Web browser how to structure it to display.
Originally, HTML was developed with the intent of defining the structure of documents like headings, paragraphs, lists, and so forth to facilitate the sharing of scientific information between researchers.
All you need to do to use HTML is to learn what type of markup to use to get the results you want.
