Posted in Custom User Icons in Windows XP, Windows Xp Tips at 4:01 am by admin
If you plan on getting a copy of XP, one of the first things you’re going to do is set up a user account. Why not give your user account its very own picture? It’s OK if you don’t want to use a picture of your own because Windows comes with at least 20 beautiful pictures to choose from.
Here’s how you can customize your user account icon.
Single-click the start menu and choose Control Panel.
Single-click the User Accounts icon.
Find the user account you’d like to change the icon for and click on it.
Click the text that says “Change My Picture.”
You’ll have the option to either pick one of the predefined icons or choose your own.
If you like one of the predefined icons, just highlight the one you like and click the button labeled “Change Picture.”
If you’d like to use your own picture, just click the magnifying glass or the text labeled “Browse for more pictures.” This will launch a dialog box directing you to navigate to where your new picture is stored. After you find it, just click Open to save your new changes.

Icumsa 45 is a rating set out by the International Commission For Uniform Methods Of Sugar Analysis, and is awarded only after sugar demonstrates certain properties in a standardized test. The system was developed so that international traders in different countries had a meaningful way of describing sugar when selling it.
ICUMSA ratings of sugar are actually based on how white a sugar is. Because the refining process is also a whitening process, the most refined types of sugar are also the whitest. The ICUMSA standard test is one that determines how white a sugar is, and rates it based on this quality.
They work directly with a Brazilian jointly owned commercial enterprise, which is in control of over 200 sugar mills. They also work with several US and EU hedge funds who own Brazilian sugar allocations in large quantities. Because of these factors they are able to fill an order of any size, starting with the minimum 12.500 metric tons of sugar to multi million ton orders.

Posted in Password Recovery Disk in Windows XP, Windows Xp Tips at 8:09 pm by admin
Take preventive measures against losing user-level passwords.
It doesn’t matter if you never again remember a Windows user password. Thanks to XP’s Forgotten Password Wizard, your conscience will be free and clear — should your mind happen to accidentally misplace your user password.
I highly suggest you create a password recovery disk the minute you create your user account. Why? In order to create a password recovery disk you’re going to need your password. Write it down the minute you create your user account and then proceed to creating your very own password recovery disk.
Here’s how to launch the Forgotten Password Wizard:
Single-click Start menu, Control Panel, and User Accounts.
Click your user account name.
Under Related Tasks on the left, click “Prevent forgotten password” to launch the wizard.
Now that you’ve launched the wizard, let it walk you through creating the recovery disk. Make sure the disk you use is formatted and in the drive. After it’s finished creating the disk, label it and stash it away for an emergency.
If you happen to forget your password, all you need to do is click your user icon at the logon screen. Even though you don’t have your password, go ahead and click the green arrow just like you would to finish logging on to your computer. This will launch a little yellow dialog box directing you to use your password recovery disk.

Posted in Symmetric Multiprocessing at 4:16 am by admin
Symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) is a technology that allows a computer to use more than one processor. The most common configuration of an SMP computer is one that uses two processors. The two processors are used to complete your computing tasks faster than a single processor. (Two processors aren’t necessarily twice as fast as a single processor, though.)
In order for a computer to take advantage of a multiprocessor setup, the software must be written for use with an SMP system. If a program isn’t written for SMP, it won’t take advantage of SMP. Not every program is written for SMP; SMP applications, such as image-editing programs, video-editing suites, and databases, tend to be processor intensive.
SMP in Windows XP
Operating systems also need to be written for SMP in order to use multiple processors. In the Windows XP family, only XP Professional supports SMP; XP Home does not. If you’re a consumer with a dual-processor PC at home, you have to buy XP Professional. Windows XP Advanced Server also supports SMP.
In Microsoft’s grand scheme, XP Professional is meant to replace Windows 2000, which supports SMP. In fact, XP Professional uses the same kernel as Windows 2000. XP Home is designed to replace Windows Me as the consumer OS, and Windows Me does not support SMP.
The difference between XP Professional and XP Home is more than just $100 and SMP support. XP Professional has plenty of other features not found in XP Home; some you’ll use, others you won’t care about. Get more information on the differences by reading this article.
