How to copy single large file to USB

Situation:
I have a game installer about 7GB of file size.
My flash drive has 8GB of free space and newly formatted.(But to FAT32 file system)

Problem:
I cannot copy large files such as ISO files in to my usb/flash/pen drive/disk even if my usb drive still has large free space available. It keeps saying "DISK MEMORY FULL".

1st Possible Solution: 
**WARNING** this will erase all of your files in your usb drive. Format your drive by doing right click on your drive then choose format. A new box will pop-up check quick format on format options. Wait for it to finish.

Explanation: Maybe your USB has viruses inside it that is eating up the memory space.

2nd Possible Solution:
Formatting your USB this way. This kind of formatting will not erase any files inside your USB.
On windows RUN command type "CONVERT X: /FS:NTFS" where X is the drive letter of your USB. A box will Pop-up with writing on it wait for it to finish or close it self.
You can now copy large files on your USB drive.

Explanation:
2 kinds of format on drive:
1. FAT32
2. NTFS
Most USB are FAT32 on default format. FAT32 has a limit of 4GB file size. That's why you will format your USB using this "CONVERT X: /FS:NTFS" to convert it to NTFS which can handle very large files...

PTCL V-wireless settings for VISTA


PTCL V Wireless Is way better than dial up, but not as good as DSL or Wateen, Its cheap and ill give credit for that and it works even better in remote areas or small cities. Ptcl V wireless is compatible with some versions of vista but not all. People are charging 200 RS to or even more to do these settings. It's free here but you can do favor by promoting this link to any one you like.
So Here We Go:
1. Turn on the wireless set, insert the data cable in any USB port. Windows will prompt for drivers, and then insert the CD that came with the wireless set. Windows will prompt that it can not verify the publisher of the driver ( a red color message) but install the software anyway. Three drivers each after one another should be installed. When a message box appears in right bottom corner that drivers have been successfully installed, eject the drivers CD. Now you have completed 50 percent of the job.
2. Go to the control panel then > switch to classic view>click on Phone and modem>click on Modem then click on Add>check the option (Don't detect my modem I will select it from a list) then click Next> here wait for a while system ll retrieve the list of devices>now select the HUAWEI WIRELESS MODEM from the list and then press Next>select All Ports option and press Next and finish. All done, Your good to go.
3. Last step, make a dial up connection hope you know how to make that.

How to make your computer talk/speak what you type

Here’s a cool little feature of Windows that can be abused so that you can make your computer talk or speak whatever you tell it! This method takes advantage of a built-in API installed on most Windows XP machines called SAPI (Speech Application Programming Interface).

The Microsoft Speech API is what is used for the Narrative accessibility feature built into Windows. You can also write programs that call the API, which would allow you to let your applications speak.

But making your computer say what you want is pretty easy actually! Here’s how you do it:

Step 1: Open Notepad and paste the following text into a new document:

Dim message, sapi
message=InputBox(“Enter the text you want spoken”,”Speak This”)
Set sapi=CreateObject(“sapi.spvoice”)
sapi.Speak message

It should basically look something like this:

make computer speak

Now when you go to save the file, give it any name, but make sure you also type .VBS after the name. Also, for the Save as type box, choose All files instead of the default Text Documents.

make computer talk

Now double-click on the VBS file and you should see a input box where you can type in the text you want spoken! Go ahead and type something and click OK.

speak computer

That’s it! Your computer will speak to you in the default voice, which for me was some scary seductive male type of voice! What about yours? Enjoy (This would be fun to do on someone else’s computer as a joke.)


Please comment and let me know in either cases if it works for your or not? I'll be here to help you out.

How to Track a Stolen Cell Phone

Track a Stolen Cell Phone
Track a Stolen Cell Phone

Cell phones are very desirable pieces of technology, especially when they are popular models. They are costly, compact and easily lost or stolen. Be prepared and load your cell phone with the appropriate software beforehand, so you can track and retrieve the cell phone if it's stolen.

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Go to Microtechnologies to download the appropriate software to track a cell phone (see Resources).

  2. Step 2

    Click on the green box labeled, "MicroLMTS Lost Mobile Tracking System."

  3. Step 3

    Find "Installation Steps" in the right corner of the screen.

  4. Step 4

    Look over the cell phone icons. Locate the specific model of your cell phone and click on the heading above it.

  5. Step 5

    Find and click on "Installation Instructions."

  6. Step 6

    Read over the pre-installation instructions and complete each step. When you complete each step of the "Lost Mobile Tracking System," wait for a few minutes. The software starts itself the first time. If the software does not start on it's own, restart your phone. When the software launches, register your phone.

  7. Step 7

    Choose "Select Advance Registration Form Options Menu" from the Private Policy screen and complete the registration.


Tips & Warnings
  • The software notifies you when someone changes out the cell phone's SIM card. It lets you track the cell phone when it identifies a location. The software is also undetectable to thieves. There is no way to tell that it is installed on the phone.
  • Notify your cell phone carrier if the phone is lost or stolen. This is especially important if you do not have tracking software installed on the phone. Your carrier can track a stolen cell phone with GPS technology if it is being used with your current SIM card.
