The batteries even when they get cooler, still don’t charge when plugged in, and this resumes randomly at any time without any regular phenomenon, which is a confusing problem. Now the next option would be checking the power cables, adapter and plugged in switch but since all of these show connected and display light at the connection point, this clearly indicates that this is also not the problem and we need to look into other options for this. In the older laptops there was no option to find out the battery backup, the same situation which does not display the left over battery in the UPS because these batteries are not configured with the device drivers to recognize them.

This is quite a panic situation because if the power connection is again disconnected, the battery wont help you out because there is no backup left. Hence you need to fix this as soon as possible. One possible fix for this is to update the drivers of the battery in the Device Manager to make sure that the latest drivers are used to recognize the battery. Right Click on My Computer > Properties > Device Manager.

Here you will find all the connected devices information and their drivers details. Click on the Batteries column and you will find a list of all the batteries connected to your computer.

Click on the ‘Batteries’ option and it will display a list of different batteries. Next right click on ‘Microsoft ACPI-Complaint Control Method battery’. Select the Uninstall option.

Now next you will be shown a confirmation window, asking you to confirm the device uninstallation. Click on OK to proceed.

Next you will find that the device is removed from the ‘Device Manager’ and next time you restart your Laptop, it will automatically configure the drivers for that device and the specific laptop battery not charging issue can be resolved. Other than if the problem still continues you need to contact the service center and get it replaced.

The design is superb, single bodied structure resembling the unibody aluminum MacBook, with curved edges and glossy top with a central simple-as-always logo of Nokia. It seems that Nokia has tried not to experiment much and throw in more ideas on the design, which is the best part now as one would want a design not better than this one. The glossy surface although easily gets covered with the dust, marks and fingerprints but it won’t be very painful to wipe it off with a soft cloth. Its not just the compact and simple design that gives the resemblance to MacBook, but the Booklet 3G is also made of aluminum.

The screen can be opened wide, to make the laptop totally horizontal, i.e. it can be opened to almost 180 degrees. A pretty advantageous and comfortable option! The laptop isn’t too heavy, and its just 0.78″ thick, when closed although it has 16-cell battery in the bottom. The left side pane has 2 USB slots, an HDMI port, 3.5 mm headphone jack and the right side has the SIM and Memory card slots, along with a USB port. There is no ethernet port, but one has to compromise with a few options when talking about the small design and compact structure.

Talking about the screen, the quality and resolution of the 10.1″ is pretty good and when compared to those of Asus EEE PCs, and HP Netbooks (HP 1001 Mini), we call this a winner. The brightness in here is not forced as what we see in many small-screened netbooks. It won’t hurt the eyes, although you use it for hours in a dark place. The keyboard, is not pretty much impressive where one of the couple things could make it better – The keys should have been bigger, covering the gaps between the keys (there is seriously no need for the gaps), or else Nokia should have considered extending the keys to the end of the board. The right portion of the keyboard looks too clustered, where getting hands onto there is not easy if you are an avid user of Sony, Dell or Apple laptops. The trackpad is well made, with single-touch sensing unit and hard click bottons below the pad.

The webcam is there enough for any video chats, but clicking pictures won’t give you high quality pics, so better keep it to just a simple webcam with no big expectations.

Conclusion:
A sleek, beautifully packed launch by Nokia. The looks are impressive, and the size that can fit into small bag and carry along anywhere. With 3 USB ports, it can help you in carrying out multiple external port connections well. Overall, a good entry by Nokia.

Note : Nokia has sent us a Booklet 3G as a sample to test out the Netbook and share the actual experience with our readers.

A laptop with touch screen has a comparatively reduced and compact size and so, is very easy to carry. However, it does not compromise on the key size. Since a touch screen laptop does not require a mouse pad, it allows the laptop manufacturers to increase the touch key sizes and ensure that the keyboard doesn’t appear jammed. A touch screen laptop allows you to sketch using a stylus or take notes in your own handwriting. Most touch screen laptop computers also have efficient handwriting software, using which you can translate both cursive as well as printed writing into digitized form. Besides, the handwriting software eliminates the requirement for typing skills, as it simplifies the process of writing in cursive or printing on screen to execute commands. Thus, it provides a speedier and more productive user experience.

A touch screen laptop has a better speed and reliability in comparison to conventional laptops. Although regular laptops do have a mouse pad and a USB port to let you connect to an external mouse for easier navigation, they do take a considerable of amount of time to carry out simple navigation’s. On the contrary, touch screen laptop computers are not only faster but also more reliable. With touch screen laptops, as you tend to use your fingers when selecting the options, there’s no need to worry about clicking the wrong option.

Since touch screen laptops have many advanced and efficient features, everyone expected them to carry a heavy price. However, as surprising as it may sound, touch screen laptops are extremely cost-effective and affordable to a common man. However, if you wish to have a more up to date and stylish touch screen laptop, you may have to shell out a little additional money than required for the general laptops. With touch screen laptops expected to become more common, their prices will surely come down.

One of the best touch screen laptops in the market is HP Touch Smart TX2. It packs the punch of a regular laptop as well a multimedia machine. The touch screen technology used in this laptop enables the use of two fingers to navigate the multimedia applications. It operates on Windows 7 and has an AMD Turion processor.

The future of touch screen laptops appears bright, as more software applications are expected to be compatible with touch-screen technology. Currently, these laptops are available only with Windows operating system; however, there are rumors stating that an Apple Macintosh touch screen laptop model is in the works and will be introduced shortly. Apple has recently introduced the iPad, however it is more useful for reading books, viewing movies etc rather than as a fully functional laptop computer.

If you are a tech-savvy business person or student with a busy lifestyle, a touch screen laptop will prove to be your ideal companion.

  Laptop Flat Surface Table

  Flat Surface : The Laptops are considered to be devices which can be placed on your Laps and you can start working anywhere anytime, hence the netbooks were introduced and also the sale of Laptops in the market is booming. But many people have neglected the fact that the Laptops are to be placed on a Flat Surface and they place the Laptops on the Bed or on their Pillows to enjoy taking rest as well as completing their work. This would not only block the air vents ie the Laptop Fan, but also create other health problems, for which we would recommend reading a article on health care for laptop users. A flat surface could be your Reading Table or your office desk where in you can also have the right body postures along with the right exposure to external air from the beneath of the Laptop. While placing the Laptop on your Lap, Bed or Pillows the air vents can get blocked because of which the hot air which has to be pushed outside is blocked inside increasing the overall temperature of your Laptop which can be felt when you place your hand near the bottom side of your Laptop.

  laptop dust removal

  Clean Dust : I have no idea about others, but am personally a quite lazy person and when the talk is about handling my gadgets, i tend to ignore this stuff and would never Clean the Laptop screen, Laptop Keyboard or the mouse bottom which hangs after a long period of usage. These are few tiny issues which wont effect on your gadgets quickly but in the long run would reduce their value and there are many reasons for this. If you don’t vacuum your Laptop Keyboard section, the dust keeps getting accumulated and in the long run the buttons wont work perfectly, the way they were when you purchased the new Laptop. The very same way if you don’t keep the Laptop’s Air Vent clean, dust would get accumulated at that area and would block the hot air to be pushed outside, increasing the internal temperature. You can also use a Cotton swab along with your old toothbrush to clean out all the dust along with some good laptop cleaning liquid to make sure any dust is not left on the fan and the went. Make sure that when you perform any of these tasks, the Laptop Power is completely Off and you don’t get any electric shocks while performing some maintainence tasks.

• Laptop Cooling Pads : This is one of the most important advice we can give you when you are looking to cool down the heat built within your Laptop because not always the inner fans can help you out. We had previously reviewed different products like 4 Fans USB Cooling Pad, Logitech N100 Laptop Cooling Pad, iLap which are all different products sold by different manufacturers at a large range of prices which start at around 500Rs and go upto 8000Rs. There are different models available in the market some of which are cushioned and some are not, while the original purpose of these is to push in the external cold air inside and make the inner parts cooler. While you would love to work from your bed, most of the times there is a lot of hot air struck up between the laptops external body and the bed surface which has to be blown away and this is one of the most important situation when you would need a Cooling Pad. The latest ones come just in the form of two fans which can be placed just beneath the laptop fans or the air outflow section which can push cold air in and make the hot air coming in a bit cooler. You can also place the fan below the hottest parts of your laptop beneath which is somewhere around the location where the processor is installed.

• Image File Names – This is one of the most important factor which has to be taken care off, when you plan to use a image on your website or blog. Whenever you take a snap with your Digital Camera or Mobile Phone, there are maximum chances that the files would be saved in the Memory Card in the name format of DSC1331, DSC1332 or any other automatically generated file name which does not give you any clear idea on whats the image is based on the file name. If you rename the same image to something more descriptive it would be helpful for you to recognize the file without even previewing it. A photo of HP Mini Laptop should be saved as hp-mini-laptop.png rather than image1.png because the former would be more descriptive in recognizing it and this is the very same way Google would also detect the image and show on its Image Search Results.
• Text Around Images – There is no point in adding a hot celebrity Image next to your technology related article, but this is something few webmasters do in order to rank for celebrity keywords and then get visitors but this does not help. You should always make sure that the Images you add within your blog posts are completely related to the topic and not added just to offer a interesting look because that does not help in getting traffic from the Search Engines. Google normally gives more weigh to the text which is surrounding the Images in order to know more what the picture is about, hence adding some relevant keywords or information around it would be more helpful.
• Compare Adsense Ads – If you are worried on what Google thinks your Image is related to, its better to add a Google Adsense advertisement next to your Image and see the type of ads you get. Google will index your page and display few advertisements which may or may not be related to the Image you have published but still you can get a idea on what the Google bots think about your Image and based on this you can make changes to the Image in terms of Adding Related Text, Tags etc. This also increases the chances of better rankings because if everything is related to the keywords you are targeting it helps you in better indexing score and the site appears more relevant to Google for all the keywords and key-phrases you are targeting.

How to Add a Image

Here are all the different items which are involved when you are posting a Image and which are very important along with sample codes and how the Image would be looking on your blog when its published.

1. src – This is the Source attribute which would specify the URL of the Image, which can be hosted anywhere either on your blog or else any other website. Its posted as src="http://www.amitbhawani.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/HP-Mini-Laptop-College-Students.jpg"
2. width & height declaration – This is the attribute which declares the total width and height of the image specified in pixels. If you have a very large image which can exceed the size of your content area, you can just limit the height & width to the size you want and add to your blog. Example : width="250" height="250"
3. alt – The alt attribute is one of the most important factor for SEO, and this is because it describes the Image when the Image does not load and the attribute would display the text you have specified on the web-page. Many a times, if there are some problem with the host, the Images you have added on your blog may not load up, but the alt tag would be helpful to you because it would show a nice text which right clicked would show a option to ‘reload’ the Image. Example : alt="HP Mini Laptop"
4. Title – The title attribute is going to work whenever the blog readers hovers his mouse over the image giving them a idea on what the Image is related to. Sometimes viewing a complex Image cannot be understood on what it represents but a title attribute would be helpful to the reader. Its again useful in terms of Search Engine Optimization too because it gives the Search Engine Bots more information on the Images. Example : title="HP Mini Laptop"
5. Target – The target attribute specifies the way a linked document or file should open up. There are different options are available under this, though the most used is _blank option which opens the linked file in a new window or a new tab on the browser. Example : <a target="_blank"
6. Align – The Align attribute allows you to specify the alignment of the Image within the Post Display area, which can range from Left, Right, Top, Bottom & Middle. Generally its recommended to use the Left & Right option to display the Image as a part of the content and this also helps in showing surrounding text. Example : <img align="value" />

Adding Image Example : Here is a example of a Laptop Image which was added in one of our article – Best Laptops for Students, which can you show how to add a perfectly optimized Image to your Blog for the highest rankings in the Search Engines. Here is the complete code we added on this article for displaying this Laptop Picture which you can take as a example and implement it on your blogs.

Connectify Wifi Hotspot Setup

We are talking about Connectify – a small and useful Windows 7 utility which can Turn your Windows 7 laptop into a WiFi hotspot to share the Internet with friends, co-workers, and mobile devices. Once you install the software, you will find a small a small icon in the system tray with the name of ‘connectify’. Next you need to click on it and move towards the settings option. Under the settings section, you need to Type the name of your WiFi Network along with a password which would be required to access the connection you are sharing.

Connectify Wifi Hotspot

In my case i selected Internet connection as Reliance and the Wifi option as Wireless Network Connection following which any other Laptop or device can connect to my main laptop[HP Dv7] easily. Once the HotSpot is started and activated, the wifi connection would be listed on different devices instantly. Next we need to move to the other Laptop Computers through which we are going to access this newly shared connection and click on the Network & Connections > Wireless Network Connection > Wifi Connection option and click on ‘Refresh Network List’ option which would scan all the wifi hotspots available in the nearby area and give a list of the same. Once you find the network you had created, click on Connect and authenticate with the password you had previously setup.

Wireless Network Key

Once the password is entered, the connection would be established and now your Laptop would be working as a Wifi Hotspot sharing the single connection with multiple devices. Note that the speed would be distributed to multiple laptops if you are using this kind of services because its limited to the total maximum speed you receive on the main connection.

All of the above listed Laptops have been in the screen size range of 10″ to 15.4″ and i have loved the Sony Vaio N17G because of the full keyboard and the excellent performance with the Laptop still working perfect enough, but because of the new software’s which need better resources i purchased a HP Pavilion Dv7 Laptop which comes with excellent inbuilt hardware which can run amazingly any high resource using software. Following is the configuration of this Notebook. The Notebook costs 1400$ base price with 66$ shipping cost at 5740Rs Custom Duties.
