Booting is the so called “bootstrapping” that processes and starts the OS (operating system) when the user turns on the computer. A boot sequence is the initial group of operations that the computer operates.
In Windows Server, 7 and Vista the bootloader file contains the necessary information is located in [root directory]\bootmgr. For Windows XP, the file is \ntldr.
Bcdedit is a powerful tool that Windows Vista, 7 and Server 2008 uses to manage the boot entry option value in the Windows boot configuration data store (BCD).
Easiest way to edit the boot loader entry names
Open your Command Interpreter > Win + R > and type “cmd.exe” > and use the following command
| bcdedit /set {current} description "any name" |
Restart your computer to see the results…
For Windows XP users, you can read this old blog article that I wrote.
Note: It is important to backup the bcd entries first:
| bcdedit /export c:\savebcdentry |
To undo the changes:
| bcdedit /import c:\savebcdentry |
How to delete entry from the list
| Microsoft Windows [Version 6.0.6001] C:\Windows\system32>bcdedit Windows Boot Manager Windows Boot Loader Windows Boot Loader C:\Windows\system32> |
First, you need to know the identifier value by launching “bcdedit” as shown above and after that, you can now delete the entry “dummy OS” by using the command:
bcdedit /delete {a1d3593a-5b7-11e0-9e3c-d0a2d26a53be}

Windows Server is the leader in terms of operating system unit and revenues. According to Wikipedia, Internet Information Server is a Web Server application on the Internet created by Microsoft for use with Windows. It is the most used Web server after Apache HTTP Server.
It provides a reliable, manageable, and scalable Web application application infrastructure.
IIS is not turned on by default when Windows is installed.
How to activate the Internet Information Services
Once the Initial configuration Task Window is ready, go to the Add roles option.
If not loaded, you can access this using the Server Manager window
Select to check the “Web Server (IIS)” option and follow the Wizard instruction.
It’s really fast and easy!
Once the Web Server Installation is finished and you want to add more features, go to the “Add Role Services”

Click the Install option.
That’s it!
Alright, I encountered this problem when installing SQL using Web Developer Express edition and I’m going to have some quick solution to the problem using the command interpreter.
There has been some problem in your user-rights, probably not yet configured in the computer you are connecting to, your Windows 7 network automatically use the IP version 6 configuration and IPv4 has wrong 32-bit integer value.
Go to your run Window (Win+R) and launch the command interpreter (cmd.exe)
Once the tool is open (cmd.exe), use the command
net use {drive} \\{computer name or IP address}\{shared folder}
Here’s an example below where the driver letter is y:, the computer name is vistauser-pc and the shared folder is Q.
Now, you can browse the network folder.
If you can’t still see the folder, you can type the path manually as shown above.

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language designed for the look and formatting of web pages written in HTML.
Sample design
Cool right?
I’ve been busy learning several introductory topics and technologies from Asp.net, CSS, Ajax, Microsoft AJAX and Javascript for three weeks now. I already had some background for the languages designed for engineering purposes but for website design – none.
I’m going to share some of my experiences along the way.
Open your Notepad or you can use the free Visual Web Developer Express Edition and try learning CSS…
Default HTML Code
| <html> </head> </body> |
You can insert the CSS code between the <head> … </head> and <body> … </body> section
| <html> <style type="text/css"> </head> </body> |
The CSS code for adding border, margin and floating the images left
| div.im |
Adding a hover effect once the mouse is located on top of the image
| div.im a:hover im {border: 3px solid #96cf23;} |
In the <body> … </body> section, lets try using the CSS code using an image.
Default syntax for Image with specified ID, Height and Width
| <img src="star.jpg" id="1" height = "90" width = "100"/> |
Finalized code
| <html> <style type="text/css"> </head> <div class="im"><a href="#"><img id="1" src="http://windowsforus.com/y3/star.jpg" width="110" height="90" /></a> </div> <div class="im"><a href="#"><img id="2" src="http://windowsforus.com/y3/star.jpg" width="110" height="90" /></a> </div> <div class="im"><a href="#"><img id="3" src="http://windowsforus.com/y3/star.jpg" width="110" height="90" /></a> </div> <br clear="all" /> </body> |
