Increase Your Internet Speed By Over 20%
If you use Windows than it is possible to squeeze extra speed from your internet connection. By default, Windows reserve internet bandwidth up to 20% for various services such as Windows updates and spyware checks by using QoS Packet Scheduler.

Change Reserved Bandwidth By Windows :-
1.) Click Start > Run > and type gpedit.msc
2.) Expand the Computer Configuration branch
3.) Expand the Administrative Templates and then Network branch.4.) Just highlight the QoS Packet Scheduler branch and you will see a tab Limit Reservable Bandwidth on the right side.
5.) Double click the "limit reservable bandwidth" setting
6.) On setting tab check the ENABLED item and change Bandwidth limit % to zero

Top 15 Ways to Extend Your Laptop’s Battery Life
Top 15 Ways to Extend Your Laptop’s Battery Life Laptops tend to lose their charm
quickly when you’re constantly looking for the nearest power outlet to charge up.
How do you keep your battery going for as long as possible? Here are 15 easy ways
to do so.
1. Defrag regularly - The faster your hard drive does its work - less demand you are
going to put on the hard drive and your battery. Make your hard drive as efficient as
possible by defragging it regularly. (but not while it’s on battery of course!) Mac OSX
is better built to handle fragmentation so it may not be very applicable for Apple
systems.
2. Dim your screen - Most laptops come with the ability to dim your laptop screen.
Some even come with ways to modify CPU and cooling performance. Cut them
down to the lowest level you can tolerate to squeeze out some extra battery juice.
3. Cut down on programs running in the background. Itunes, Desktop Search, etc.
All these add to the CPU load and cut down battery life. Shut down everything that
isn’t crucial when you’re on battery.
4. Cut down external devices - USB devices (including your mouse) & WiFi drain
down your laptop battery. Remove or shut them down when not in use. It goes
without saying that charging other devices (like your iPod) with your laptop when on
battery is a surefire way of quickly wiping out the charge on your laptop battery.
5. Add more RAM - This will allow you to process more with the memory your laptop
has, rather than relying on virtual memory. Virtual memory results in hard drive use,
and is much less power efficient. Note that adding more RAM will consume more
energy, so this is most applicable if you do need to run memory intensive programs
which actually require heavy usage of virtual memory.
6. Run off a hard drive rather than CD/DVD - As power consuming as hard drives
are, CD and DVD drives are worse. Even having one in the drive can be power
consuming. They spin, taking power, even when they?re not actively being used.
Wherever possible, try to run on virtual drives using programs like Alcohol 120%
rather than optical ones.
7. Keep the battery contacts clean: Clean your battery’s metal contacts every couple
of months with a cloth moistened with rubbing alcohol. This keeps the transfer of
power from your battery more efficient.
8. Take care of your battery - Exercise the Battery. Do not leave a charged battery
dormant for long periods of time. Once charged, you should at least use the battery
at least once every two to three weeks. Also, do not let a Li-On battery completely
discharge. (Discharing is only for older batteries with memory effects)
9. Hibernate not standby - Although placing a laptop in standby mode saves some
power and you can instantly resume where you left off, it doesn’t save anywhere as
much power as the hibernate function does. Hibernating a PC will actually save
your PC’s state as it is, and completely shut itself down.
10. Keep operating temperature down - Your laptop operates more efficiently when
it’s cooler. Clean out your air vents with a cloth or keyboard cleaner, or refer to some
extra tips by LapTopMag.com.
11. Set up and optimize your power options - Go to ‘Power Options’ in your windows
control panel and set it up so that power usage is optimized (Select the ‘max battery’
for maximum effect).
12. Don’t multitask - Do one thing at a time when you’re on battery. Rather than
working on a spreadsheet, letting your email client run in the background and
listening to your latest set of MP3’s, set your mind to one thing only. If you don’t
you’ll only drain out your batteries before anything gets completed!
13. Go easy on the PC demands - The more you demand from your PC. Passive
activities like email and word processing consume much less power than gaming or
playing a DVD. If you’ve got a single battery charge - pick your priorities wisely.
14. Get yourself a more efficient laptop - Laptops are getting more and more
efficient in nature to the point where some manufacturers are talking about all day
long batteries. Picking up a newer more efficient laptop to replace an aging one is
usually a quick fix.
15. Prevent the Memory Effect - If you’re using a very old laptop, you’ll want to
prevent the ‘memory effect’ - Keep the battery healthy by fully charging and then
fully discharging it at least once every two to three weeks.
Exceptions to the rule are Li-Ion batteries (which most laptops have) which do not
suffer from the memory effect. Bonus Tip #1: Turn off the autosave function.
MS-Word’s and Excel’s autosave functions are great but because they keep saving
regular intervals, they work your hard driver harder than it may have to. If you plan to
do this, you may want to turn it back on as the battery runs low. While it saves
battery life in the beginning, you will want to make sure your work is saved when
your battery dies. Bonus Tip #2: Lower the graphics use. You can do this by
changing the screen resolution and shutting off fancy graphic drivers. Graphics
cards (video cards) use as much or more power today as hard disks Bonus Tip #1
to give caution about turning off autosave, tip #8 to change information about
discharging batteries - thanks to all who pointed it out. Added Bonus tip #2, Tip #1 to
