Alcohol 120%<br />2. UltraISO<br />3. Windows XP/2000 (not tested on 95/98/me)<br />3. Small piece of cotton<br />4. Dry cleaner paper<br />5. Finally, oil for cooking.<br /><br />First step - preparing the CD<br /><br />Get the cotton and drop some water, start cleaning vertically the surface of CD.<br />Do it 3 times and dry the water with a piece of dry cleaner paper. With a new piece<br />of cotton, drop some oil for cooking and start to wet the surface like you are<br />washing the CD with the oil. Dry carefully now. Some particles of oil will stay on the<br />microsurface of the scrath. It's okay. Seems the oil helps the laser of the CD/DVD driver<br />to read the surface again. Sure this will work with small unreadable scratchs - some hard<br />scratchs loose parts of the surface of the CD where we have data and it's lost forever.<br />But if it is loosed try anyway. Whith this tip 80% of the small scratched CD's coud be<br />recovered.<br /><br />Second Step - testing the CD<br /><br />With Alcohol 120% make an ISO - image making wizard - and lets see if the app can<br />read the loosed surface. In my case Alcohol 120% had recovered 60% of the data.<br />This is not enough. Have tryed other appz, they do not recover all the data. But the<br />CD/DVD driver laser CAN recover all data in this case. the data is still there, what we do?<br /><br />third step - making the new CD<br /><br />With the main copy system of windows explorer you can do it. Just create one folder<br />with the same name of the CD label for future burn reference, and copy the CD content<br />to the folder. When the CD copy process find the scratch, in majority of the cases, it's<br />slow down the reading and will recover ALL loosed data.If not, it just tell you there's<br />an unreadable sector. In this case your CD is lost. But it's not my case, finally<br />windows explorer got all the data from the scratch and made a copy in the folder.<br />with the ultraISO, wrote the original CD label, drop the content of the folder and<br />save as Iso. You can Test the new CD just mounting the iso in the Alcohol 120%. In my<br />case i did ISO of the two discs from MAX PAYNE 2 and tested installing from the mounted<br />ISO. Works like a charm. I got the 4 mb lost again. So, I have burned the CD and now i<br />have a working copy from the scratched one.<br /><br />Sounds too bizzarre, but works. Course you can jump the cleaning process and try to copy<br />the content with Windows explorer. But in my case did not work without oil...TweeXPsterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12913839433828776630noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7473436688958383271.post-48422846333096598662007-06-14T20:46:00.000+02:002007-06-14T21:03:05.095+02:00Spread

Well here's the solution.<br /><br />We'll be making file 1 million bytes big, you only need Windows and calculator.<br /><br />You can create a file of any size using nothing more than what's supplied with Windows. Start by converting the desired file size into hexadecimal notation. You can use the Windows Calculator in Scientific mode do to this. Suppose you want a file of 1 million bytes. Enter 1000000 in the calculator and click on the Hex option to convert it (1 million in hex is F4240.) Pad the result with zeros at the left until the file size reaches eight digits—000F4240.<br /><br />Now open a command prompt window. In Windows 95, 98, or Me, you can do this by entering COMMAND in the Start menu's Run dialog; in Windows NT 4.0, 2000, or XP enter CMD instead. Enter the command DEBUG BIGFILE.DAT and <span style="font-weight: bold;">ignore</span> the "File not found" message. Type RCX and press Enter. Debug will display a colon prompt. Enter the last four digits of the hexadecimal number you calculated (4240, in our example). Type RBX and press Enter, then enter the first four digits of the hexadecimal size (000F, in our example). Enter W for Write and Q for Quit. You've just created a 1-million-byte file using Debug. Of course you can create a file of any desired size using the same technique.TweeXPsterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12913839433828776630noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7473436688958383271.post-10847634594132786572007-06-01T21:27:00.001+02:002007-06-01T21:27:06.520+02:00Rename you Recycle Bin1-From Start menu choose Run<br />2-Type "regedit" and then press OK<br />3-Then select the following:<br />HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}<br />4-In the right side double click the key "Default" and change its value from "Recycle Bin" to any word you want.TweeXPsterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12913839433828776630noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7473436688958383271.post-34712352497107502982007-06-01T21:21:00.000+02:002007-06-01T21:23:37.086+02:00How to disable Error Reporting in Windows XPThis is just about how to disable Error Reporting dialog that you get whenever a program crashes or we end task through task manager.<br /><br />Right Click on <b>My Computer</b> and click <b>Properties</b>.

System Configuration Editor = sysedit.exe (modify System.ini & Win.ini just like in Win98! ).<br />20. Syskey = syskey.exe (Secures XP Account database - use with care, it's virtually undocumented but it appears to encrypt all passwords, I'm not sure of the full implications).<br />21. Mcft Telnet Client = telnet.exe<br />22. Driver Verifier Manager = verifier.exe (seems to be a utility for monitoring the actions of drivers, might be useful for people having driver problems. Undocumented).<br />23. Windows for Workgroups Chat = winchat.exe (appears to be an old NT utility to allow chat sessions over a LAN, help files available).<br />24.

Once implemented, you will be able to right click any file or folder and use the Browse for Folder dialog to choose the location you want to move or copy your file or folder to, without having to go to the destination path. This will give you an alternative to Windows default Copy/Cut and Paste method which requires you to navigate to the actual location you want to paste your file or folder too.

The Create Shortcut Wizard appears. In the box asking for the location of the shortcut, type shutdown. After you create the shortcut, double-clicking on it will shut down or reset your PC.<br /><br />Other way is:<br /><br />"Left Click on ShortCut -> Properties->" - In the Target box you add the commands!<br /><br />But you can do much more with a shutdown shortcut than merely shut down your PC. You can add any combination of several switches to do extra duty, like this:<br /><br />shutdown -r -t 01 -c "Rebooting your PC"<br />Double-clicking on that shortcut will reboot your PC after a one-second delay and display the message "Rebooting your PC." The shutdown command includes a variety of switches you can use to customize it. Table 1-3 lists all of them and describes their use.<br /><br />I use this technique to create two shutdown shortcuts on my desktop—one for turning off my PC, and one for rebooting. Here are the ones I use:<br /><br />shutdown -s -t 03 -c "Bye Bye m8!"<br />shutdown -r -t 03 -c "Ill be back m8 <img src="http://dreatica.cl/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif" alt="" title="Wink" class="inlineimg" border="0" />!"<br /><br />Switch<br />What it does<br /><br />-s<br />Shuts down the PC.<br /><br />-l<br />Logs off the current user.<br /><br />-t nn<br />Indicates the duration of delay, in seconds, before performing the action.<br /><br />-c "messagetext"<br />Displays a message in the System Shutdown window.

Doubleclick on the pak000.pk4 file. In the "window can't open this file .. .bla bla" dialog, go on and associate the file with an app like WinRar. With this file open in WinRar, go to the glprogs directory in the file. In there you'll find the shaders. The interaction.vfp file seems to be the main rendering shader. Altering this shader to output a constant color turns most objects into that constant color, except for stuff like computer screens etc.<br /><br />So doubleclick the interaction.vfp file to open it (you may have to associate the .vfp extension with a text editor like notepad or wordpad first since we're going to edit the file). Scroll down to the fragment shader. You'll find these rows:<br /><br />Code:<br /><br />PARAM subOne = { -1, -1, -1, -1 };<br />PARAM scaleTwo = { 2, 2, 2, 2 };<br /><br /><br />Add this right below them:<br /><br />Code:<br /><br />PARAM specExp = { 16, 0, 0, 0 };<br /><br /><br />Now scroll down to this:<br /><br />Code:<br /><br /># perform a dependent table read for the specular falloff<br />TEX R1, specular, texture[6], 2D;<br /><br /><br />Comment out that line by adding a "#" to it, and add another line that will do the same thing with math instead, so it should look like this:<br /><br />Code:<br /><br /># perform a dependent table read for the specular falloff<br /># TEX R1, specular, texture[6], 2D;<br />POW R1, specular.x, specExp.x;<br /><br /><br />Save the file and close your text editor. WinRar will ask if you want to update the file in the archive, select yes. Close WinRar and enjoy about 40% higher performance in Doom3.</div> <!-- / message -->TweeXPsterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12913839433828776630noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7473436688958383271.post-57460316564491126162007-05-30T18:01:00.001+02:002007-06-01T15:54:38.150+02:00IP structure explainedEvery station on a PSN (packet switched network) that is based on the TCP/IP<br />protocol (your computer is one, for example. Yes, we're referring to a host<br />that is connected to the net) must have an IP address, so it can be identified,<br />and information can be relayed and routed to it in an orderly fashion.<br /><br />An IP address consists of a 32 bit logical address. The address is divided<br />into two fields:<br /><br />1) The network address:<br /><br />Assigned by InterNIC (Internet Network Information Center).<br />In fact most ISPs (internet service providers) purchase a number of addresses<br />and assign them individually.<br /><br />2) The host address:<br /><br />An address that identifies the single nodes throughout the network. It can be assigned<br />by the network manager, by using protocols for it such as DHCP, or the workstation itself.<br /><br />[The IP networking protocol is a logically routed protocol, meaning that address 192.43.54.2<br />will be on the same physical wire as address 192.43.54.3 (of course this is not always true. It depends on the<br /><br />subnet mask of the network, but all of that can fill a text of its own)<br /><br /><br />IP address structure:<br /><br />---.---.---.---<br /><br />^ ^<br />| |<br />network | host<br /><br />Every " --- " = 8 bits.<br />The first bits ===> network address<br />The last bits ===> host address.<br />with 8 bits you can present from 0-255 .<br /><br />Example:<br />11000010.01011010.00011111.01001010 (binary)<br />194.90.31.74 (decimal)<br />IP address CLASSES :<br />We can classify IP addreses to 5 groups. You can distinguish them by comparing the "High Order" bits (the first four bits on the<br />left of the address):<br /><br />type | model | target | MSB |addr.range |bit number| max.stations|<br /> | | groups | | |net./hosts| |<br />------|--------|--------|-----|--------------|----------|-------------|<br />A |N.h.h.h | ALL | 0 | 1.0.0.0 | 24/7 | 16,777,214 |<br /> | | ACCEPT | | to | | |<br /> | | HUGE | | 127.0.0.0 | | |<br /> | | CORPS | | | | |<br />-----------------------------------------------------------------------<br /> |N.N.h.h | TO ALL | 10 | 128.1.00 | 16/14 | 65,543 |<br />B | | LARGE | | to | | |<br /> | | CORPS | | 191.254.00 | | |<br />-----------------------------------------------------------------------<br /> |N.N.N.h |TO ALOT | 110 | 192.0.1.0 | 8/22 | 254 |<br />C | |OF | | to | | |<br /> | |SMALL | | 223.225.254 | | |<br /> | |CORPS | | | | |<br />-----------------------------------------------------------------------<br />D | NONE |MULTI-CA|1110 | 224.0.0.0 | NOT FOR | UNKNOWN |<br /> | |ST ADDR.| | to | USUAL | |<br /> | |RFC-1112| |239.255.255.255| USE | |<br />-----------------------------------------------------------------------<br />E | NOT FOR|EXPERIME|1,1,1,1| 240.0.0.0 |NOT FOR| NOT FOR USE|<br /> | USE |NTAL | | to |USE | |<br /> | |ADDR. | |254.255.255.255| | |<br />-----------------------------------------------------------------------<br /><br />N=NETWORK , h=HOST .<br /><br />Notice the address range 127.X.X.X.<br />These addresses are assigned to internal use to the network device, and are<br />used as an application tool only. For example: 127.0.0.1, the most common one,<br />is called the loopback address - everything sent here goes directly back to<br />you, without even traveling out on the wire.<br />Also, some IPs are reserved for VPNs - Virtual Private Networks. These are<br />local area networks over wide area networks that use the Internet Protocol to<br />communicate, and each computer inside the network is assigned with an IP<br />address. So, suppose a certain computer wants to send a data packet to<br />another host on the network with the IP 'x', but there's also another host on<br />the Internet that has the same IP - what happens now? So this is why you<br />cannot use these and other forms of reserved IPs on the Internet.<br /><br />EXTRA:<br /><br />Distinguishing different groups:<br /><br />You have to compare the first byte on the left in the address as follows:<br /><br /><br />Type | First byte | MSB<br /> | in decimal |<br />----------------------------<br />A | 1-127 | 0<br />----------------------------<br />B | 128-191 | 10<br />----------------------------<br />C | 192-223 | 110<br />----------------------------<br />D | 224-239 | 1110<br />----------------------------<br />E | 240-254 | 1111<br />----------------------------<br /><br />Newbie note:<br /><br />1) Multicast: (copied from RFC 1112)<br />IP multicasting is the transmission of an IP datagram to a "host<br />group", a set of zero or more hosts identified by a single IP<br />destination address. A multicast datagram is delivered to all<br />members of its destination host group with the same "best-efforts"<br />reliability as regular unicast IP datagrams, i.e., the datagram is<br />not guaranteed to arrive intact at all members of the destination<br />group or in the same order relative to other datagrams.<br /><br />The membership of a host group is dynamic; that is, hosts may join<br />and leave groups at any time. There is no restriction on the<br />location or number of members in a host group. A host may be a<br />member of more than one group at a time. A host need not be a member<br />of a group to send datagrams to it.<br /><br />A host group may be permanent or transient. A permanent group has a<br />well-known, administratively assigned IP address. It is the address,<br />not the membership of the group, that is permanent; at any time a<br />permanent group may have any number of members, even zero. Those IP<br />multicast addresses that are not reserved for permanent groups are<br />available for dynamic assignment to transient groups which exist only<br />as long as they have members.<br /><br />Internetwork forwarding of IP multicast datagrams(ip packets)is handled by<br />"multicast routers" which may be co-resident with, or separate from,<br />internet gateways. A host transmits an IP multicast datagram as a<br />local network multicast which reaches all immediately-neighboring<br />members of the destination host group. If the datagram has an IP<br />time-to-live greater than 1, the multicast router(s) attached to the<br />local network take responsibility for forwarding it towards all other<br />networks that have members of the destination group. On those other<br />member networks that are reachable within the IP time-to-live, an<br />attached multicast router completes delivery by transmitting the<br />datagram(ip packet) as a local multicast.<br /><br />*if you donot understand the above do not worry, it is complicated and dry<br />but reread it and read it again get a dictionary if it helps.<br />Hacking is not easy.<br /><br />2) MSB: Most Significent Bit:<br />In set numbers the first number on the left is the most important because it<br />holds the highest value as opposed to the LSB=> least significent bit, it<br />always holds the the smallest value.TweeXPsterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12913839433828776630noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7473436688958383271.post-62203395477279740162007-05-30T17:59:00.000+02:002007-05-30T18:00:19.188+02:00Keep your PC files securedIf you want to encrypt the contents of an individual file or directory, Windows XP Pro will do the trick, provided you enable NTFS on your hard drive. To encrypt a file, right-click on it to bring up the Properties window. Click on the Advanced button, then in the Advanced Attributes dialog box click on Encrypt contents to secure data. This will encrypt the file (using either DES, which employs a 56-bit key on each 64-bit block of data, or 3DES, which uses a 56-bit key three times on each 64-bit block of data), and it will provide a certificate just for you. This certificate is key; if you reinstall Windows or otherwise lose your user account, your access to the encrypted files will be gone, too. You need to export your certificates to back them up: For detailed instructions, search on export certificate in Windows Help.<br /><br />Windows XP does not require you to enter your password when you open the encrypted file. Once you log on to a session, encrypted files are available for you—and anyone who walks up to your system—to view.<br /><br />Windows XP Home doesn't support this method. Both XP Home and XP Pro, however, let you create password-protected compressed files. To do this, right-click on the desired file and choose Send To | Compressed (zipped) Folder. Open the resulting folder and select Add a Password from the File menu; delete the original file. Note that this encryption is relatively weak. It should dissuade casual users but won't put up much of a fight against someone determined to hack it apart.TweeXPsterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12913839433828776630noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7473436688958383271.post-51757239868866778252007-05-30T08:53:00.000+02:002007-05-30T17:58:03.005+02:00AutoRun your CDIf you wanna make a autorun file for that CD you are ready to burn just read this...<br /><br />1) You open notepad<br /><br />2) now you writ: [autorun]<br />OPEN=INSTALL\Setup_filename.EXE<br />ICON=INSTALL\Setup_filename.EXE<br /><br />Now save it but not as a .txt file but as a .inf file.<br /><br />But remember!
