How To Reduce Hibernate File Size In Windows 7

RockyStar : April 30, 2010 2:20 pm : Technical

Most of Windows users use hibernation feature to quickly boot into Windows and resume their work. Though, by default, it’s not enabled in Windows 7, one can enable it.

When you enable hibernate feature, Windows creates a new file named hiberfil.sys in the root of your system drive to save the system state.

Now, if you have a hiberfil.sys with a huge size, you might want to reduce its size to free-up some disk space. The default size of hiberfil.sys varies depending on the amount of RAM installed on your PC. For instance, it’s taking 2.97 GB of disk space on my PC with 4 GB of RAM.

One can reduce the hiberfil.sys file size by executing a simple command in the elevated Command Prompt. Here is how to do it:

1. Open elevated Command Prompt by typing CMD in Start menu search filed and then hitting enter. Alternatively, go to Start menu, All programs, Accessories, right-click on Command Prompt entry and then select Run as administrator option.

2. In the command prompt, type the following command and hit enter.

Powercfg –h –size percentsize

In the above command, replace percentsize with your value (for example, 60%), but it cannot be smaller than 50.

The Highest 10 Reasons Why Websites Fail

RockyStar : April 22, 2010 12:04 pm : Technical

1. Doesn’t Catch Surfers’ Notice.

The first factor somebody looking to your page can see is perhaps the foremost necessary component at your disposal to urge them to stay. While graphics will be very helpful, it is the first couple of sentences that ought to really be targeted on. This is particularly true of your homepage.

Your web site may appear flashy and hold the attention, however surfers these days can tell in seconds if there’s anything worthwhile to be read. This relies a bit on the character of the positioning, but normally your content should be revealing and interesting.

3. It Gets Old.

Say it with me: “a website is never done.” If the information on your web site becomes obsolete, guests are less inclined to stay around. Regularly update your website, and make positive any outgoing links still work.

4. Lack of Advertising.

Really, you should promote your website. Not every form of advertising needs payment, also, so discover your options.

5. Too Several advertisments.

A number of web sites are full of big banners and other kinds of advertiments, this is a sure way and a good doors for your surfers to go away.

6. Not Using Keywords Properly.

7. No Obvious Purpose.

Have you ever stumbled across websites that don’t appear to own a central theme, but just attempt to do everything? Sites similar to that seldom succeed, and a lot of often than not extend themselves too far and never keep an viewers.

8. Need of Preparation.

Who is your target audience? Why are you creating this web site in the primary place? Such decisions ought to be created before your 1st web page ever hits the Internet. If you have got a concrete goal, it makes all different web design decisions much easier.

9. Too Several Large Images.

This is turning into less of a problem as broadband penetration improves, but keep in mind that a large p.c of surfers still use dial-up to connect. Treat them properly.

10. Poor Design.

Your web site ought to have a pleasant flow and appearance decent. Whereas individuals have different tastes relating to this sort of issue, a site that’s straightforward to navigate will perpetually win out against a website that looks cluttered.

Having a few advertisements here or there won’t hurt you, but if you get anxious or strive to cover ad links as content links, you will realize yourself while not an audience within the near future.

Avoiding these bad issues can provide your web site a fighting chance.
