PerigeeCopy 1.6, a great copy handler

In this segment we are going to look at a decent software that never got recognized..

This software does a very simple task. Copy or move files from one place to another without stopping for file replaces. It queues those at the end of the transfer. This is a huge issue in XP SP3.

I use it very often and totally recommend it. Until I replaced it with Teracopy.

Download link for XP/Windows 7

Hope that you like it, and it solves some of your daily problems.

Gimp 2.8 RC Slow problem fixed!! + Notes inside

2012-07-30 / / / 0 Comments
Hey there
Good day to you all
This tutorial was made on Windows XP SP3 and Gimp 2.8 RC.

Use these steps to improve the performance of Gimp 2.8

  • First of all run the software from a shortcut you create, not the one that comes with it, because it has a line called %Userprofile% which makes the start of the software faster.
  • Uninstall all unnecessary brushes,as it adds to the load time.
  • If the gtk.net library is installed, uninstall it.
  • Gimp themes doesn’t make it much slower but it causes laggy interface, so remove it.

 

 

 

A tool to use

If you followed any of my previous tips, just uninstall everything using iobituninstaller, advanced uninstall and preform a power scan to get rid of everything related to Gimp, then reinstall after a restart, the only thing to do is use the single window mode to make it like Photoshop.

And of course if you were lucky and nothing happened with you, keep it as it is.

Please note that RC is a testing version, use the final version whenever possible!

Thank you for reading, please comment below.

Fix the Resolution problem on netbooks

2012-07-24 / / / 0 Comments
Hello everyone, and welcome to another tech-tip.
Today we will be talking about the Resolution problem that occur with Netbook while trying to run some programs.
OS: XP SP3, Netbook type HP Compaq CQ10-100

 

I was not able to find anything useful on this issue so I decided to work it out myself, and this is what I have found:

First of all lets see the error message that comes when this problem happens:

Your system does not meet the minimum requirements for Handbrake.

Your Screen is running at: 1024×600

Screen resolution is too low. Must be 1024×620 or greater.

Cause of the issue

The cause of this problem is that the program cannot run under the Netbook’s resolution, in this case is 1024×600.

You can’t change the resolution because the Intel graphic chipset installed in the Netbook does not support larger resolutions.

Some of the applications that had this problem on my Netbook:

The common thing among these software and games that they are all licensed as Open source, it happened with one Freeware: “dspeech”, but why it targets Open source, this I don’t know (maybe because of OpenGL?).

Now we got two very simple fixes for this problem:

The First Fix

  • Connect your mini computer to a monitor, then change the computer’s resolution to a larger resolution, for example 1024×724, and then when the computer asks you to restart, Restart.
  • Use the function keys to alter between the آetbook monitor and the other monitor, on my Netbook for example is Fn+F2.

The Second Fix

  • Download the following Freeware, less than 100k (NRC10Beta2 Netbook Resolution Customizer) from here, and run it (on some computers it may trigger an antiviurs alarm, but it’s clean).
  • You will find an icon in the tray area (small orange monitor).
  • Right click the icon and click the top choice (which is your current resolution) to display a list of resolutions, and then click the bottom checkbox to the left saying: Enable Downscaling then click OK.
  • Repeat the last step to have the resolution you want, and the scaling means you can’t see the whole screen at once, you must move the mouse at the top and the bottom of the screen to see the rest of it.
  • The resolution will remain until you restart the Netbook, exiting the program will not change it back, a simple restart will put things right on track.
  • So this was today’s tip, we learned how to overcome the disadvantage of the small Netbook screen, for any comments please post below, I will be delighted to answer an questions regarding the matter.
Have a lovely day.
