Install Linux on Windows as an application!!

Installing Linux lands you in a problem that  you have to download an iso image, and then burn it to a CD. While burning an .iso to a CD is not hard, unless you are into it, it can be confusing.Not to mention with some Windows CD burning programs, it’s not exactly obvious how to properly burn an .iso.

To solve this Debian and Ubuntu are now offering a downloadable Windows .exe file that will install Linux while you are running Windows. The Ubuntu one apparently will do all it’s automatic,non-destructive partition magic (meaning it will make your system dual boot with both Windows and Linux without hurting the Windows OS).

The Debian installer can be found on goodbye-microsoft.com.

Create a Windows 7 / Windows Vista Usb Bootable Flash Memory Stick

1. First you need to format a USB flash memory stick(at least 4GB). In order to do so, find the device’s icon in Computer folder, right click on it and select format.

Then select NTFS File System and click start.

2. After you have formated the drive you need to make it bootable. You need a program named bootsect.exe that is located on your windows installation disk in the boot folder. Look in the Computer folder to see your cd/dvd drive’s drive letter.

Click on Start-Run(or Search) and type cmd – don’t press Enter – a program named cmd.exe will appear in the search results. Right click on the program and select Run as Administrator.

Type <your CD/DVD drive letter> : then press enter, in my case H: then enter

Type cd boot then press enter.

Type bootsect.exe /nt60 <your memory stick drive letter>: , in my case bootsect.exe /nt60 d:

Copy the contents of your windows disk to your usb flash drive.

Set the pendrive to be the first boot device on your bios and you’re ready to boot.

About Directx11

Source:http://uk.geforce.com/hardware/technology/dx11/technology

The most powerful and popular feature of DirectX11 is TESSELLATION which leads to the following advantages:

Perfect Bump Mapping

At its most basic, displacement mapping can be used as a drop-in replacement for existing bump mapping techniques. Current techniques such as normal mapping create the illusion of bumpy surfaces through better pixel shading. All these techniques work only in particular cases, and are only partially convincing when they do work.
		Base Model	Bump Mapping	Displacement Mapping
Take the case of parallax occlusion mapping, a very advanced form of bump mapping. Though it produces the illusion of overlapping geometry, it only works on flat surfaces and only in the interior of the object. True displacement mapping has none of these problems and produces accurate results from all viewing angles.

Smoother Characters

The other natural partner to tessellation is refinement algorithms. A refinement algorithm takes a coarse model, and with the help of tessellation, creates a smoother looking model. A popular example is PN-Triangles (also known as N-patches). The PN-Triangles algorithm converts low resolution models into curved surfaces which are then redrawn as a mesh of finely tessellated triangles. Much of the visual artifacts that we take for granted in today’s games—blocky character joints, polygonal looking car wheels, and coarse facial features, can be eliminated with the help of such algorithms. For example, PN-Triangles is used in Stalker: Call of Pripyat to produce smoother, more organic looking characters.

PN-Triangles enable automatic smoothing of characters without artist input. Both geometry and lighting realism is improved.

Seamless Level of Detail

In games with large, open environments you have probably noticed distant objects often pop in and out of existence. This is due to the game engine switching between different levels of detail, or LOD, to keep the geometric workload in check. Up until this point, there has been no easy way to vary the level of detail continuously since it would require keeping many versions of the same model or environment. Dynamic tessellation solves this problem by varying the level of detail on the fly. For example, when a distant building first comes into view, it may be rendered with only ten triangles. As you move closer, its prominent features emerge and extra triangles are used to outline details such as its window and roof. When you finally reach the door, a thousand triangles are devoted to rendering the antique brass handle alone, where each groove is carved out meticulously with displacement mapping. With dynamic tessellation object popping is eliminated, and game environments can scale to near limitless geometric detail.

Scalable Artwork

For developers, tessellation greatly improves the efficiency of their content creation pipeline. In describing their motivation for using tessellation, Jason Mitchell of Valve says: “We are interested in the ability to author assets which allow us to scale both up and down. That is, we want to build a model once and be able to scale it up to film quality…Conversely, we want to be able to naturally scale the quality of an asset down to meet the needs of real-time rendering on a given system.” This ability to create a model once and use it across various platforms means shorter development times, and for the PC gamer, the highest possible image quality on their GPU.

After many years of trial and error, tessellation has finally come to fruition on the PC. Stunning games like Metro 2033 already show the potential of tessellation. In time, tessellation will become as crucial and indispensible as pixel shading. Realizing its importance, NVIDIA has jump started the process by building a parallel tessellation architecture from the get go. The result is the GeForce GTX 400 family of GPUs—a true breakthrough in geometric realism and tessellation performance.

How to use trial version software forever?

You can use any software forever you want. You can download trial version, right. Trial version expires after some days. You can stop that expiration. You can tell trial version of the software to not count days or do not bother about time. The software will stay and keep working like original software forever and will not expire or cease to work. You do not have to change your system clock. This little software does it all.

Time Stopper is the software which can stop the time for try out version software. When you stop the time you can use your try-out versions forever. When you stop the time of a try-out version using this Time Stopper it works via this Time Stopper. Real time and date run normally on your system. You can use any number of try-out version softwares with this software.

How it Works

• Open Time Stopper
• Browse and select .exe of required trial software
• Choose the new date (Any date which occurs in between your trial software time period before expiration, suggestion: set it to two days before trial software expiration date.)
• Choose any time
• Click open software on your selected date

If you wish to create an icon for your modified trial software and do not want to open Time stopper every time then use last button in software to create new icon. open that trial software after that from that newly created icon always otherwise it can expire.

Nvidia Announces Quad Core Mobile Processor

There are still a few dual core smartphones expected to be released this year when Nvidia announced at the Mobile World Congress that they are ready to release a quad core mobile processor by August.

The latest quad core processor code named “Kal-El” will be far superior to the Tegra 2 dual core processor that is being used by such models as the Motorola Atrix, LG Optimus 2X and the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1.

The Tegra 3 will have a clock speed of 1.5 GHz and have four cores. In comparison it can easily outperform the Intel Core 2 Duo T7200 in processing power, which shows just how powerful it is. Imagine owning a smartphone that is more powerful than your old Core 2 Duo desktop, that’s what we are going to expect in the coming months.

Here are some of the features we can expect from the Tegra 3

• Support for resolutions of up to 2560×1600 pixels
• Media Processing Engine with NEON support
• 4 Cortex A9 using a shared 1 MB L2 Cache
• 12 core GPU
• 32 bit LPDDR2 memory controller

Expect to see devices using the Tegra 3 at the end of the year and early 2012.
