			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Are you using Outlook and you’ve noticed its beginning to slow or just having errors, you should probably scan and repair your Personal Folders file for any problems. It’s like check disk in windows but its for your email.</p>
<p>To repair your PST file, you’ll have to open the Scanpst.exe utility that’s included by default with Outlook. The only problem is that there’s no shortcut to it, so you’ll have to find it in the Outlook folder.<span id="more-22"></span></p>
<p>Open up explorer and then browse down to the following folder for Outlook 2007:</p>
<p>    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12</p>
<p>Or one of these folders for Outlook 2003 and earlier:</p>
<p>    C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Mapi\1033<br />
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\MSMAPI\1033</p>
<p><a href="http://www.takoma-software.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/scanpst1.png"><img src="http://www.takoma-software.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/scanpst1.png" alt="" title="scanpst1" width="553" height="286" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-24" /></a></p>
<p>Once you open up the utility, you’ll have to find the location of your PST file by clicking the Browse button.<br />
It will take a while to scan the file, and you’ll get a report at the end telling you whether you have errors in the file.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.takoma-software.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/scan-repair.png"><img src="http://www.takoma-software.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/scan-repair.png" alt="" title="scan-repair" width="397" height="361" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-25" /></a></p>
<p>Click on the Repair button, and after a while you’ll finally get the “Repair complete” message.<br />
If you are curious what was actually repaired during the process, you’ll find a text file in the same directory as your PST file with the same name as the PST file.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Got problem with your computer? whether it was caused by unwanted virus/worm infection or because of accidentally driver deletion. Most of users usually solved it by reinstalling its operating system. But how if you forget to back up the driver? Driver access is important usually it was kept in the installation disks. In case you forget where to put it, you got to surf the internet to find the appropriate driver.</p>
<p>Before you do the surfing, make sure you had write your old drivers. But if you forget it you could install some software to detect what kind software are suitable with your hardware. <span id="more-31"></span></p>
<p>In case those software still unable detecting your hardware, you could use old ways by opening the computer case (for PC &#8211; personal computer) check the motherboard version, then you could continue with those information to find the driveraccess.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you use Time Machine  in Leopard, then transferring your stuff to a new Mac might be a bit simpler than you thought. With Migration Assistant, you can easily transfer Applications, Documents, Settings, and more. In this Mac 101, we&#8217;re going to show you how it&#8217;s done, and how you can do it yourself!</p>
<p>1. Make sure you have a recent backup<br />
Make sure you have a recent Time Machine backup on the machine you wish to transfer your information from. To check, go to System Preferences (Apple menu) > Time Machine. If you see a recent backup, then you&#8217;re set; if not, click &#8220;show Time Machine status in the menu bar.&#8221; In the resulting menu bar item, click &#8220;Back up now.&#8221; Time Machine will make a new backup.<br />
<span id="more-29"></span><br />
2. Make sure you&#8217;re not leaving anything behind<br />
In the Time Machine System Preference pane, click the Options button. In the dialog box, you can see all the folders you have chosen not to backup &#8212; check these to make sure you really don&#8217;t want them. If you do, click the folder and chose the &#8220;-&#8221; (minus button) at the bottom. Click OK and backtrack to step 1 to create a current backup.</p>
<p>3. Getting the new machine ready<br />
From this point, you can deviate into two directions:</p>
<p>    * If your Mac is new: Boot up the new Mac and go through the setup screens. When the setup assistant asks if you want to migrate information from your old Mac, choose &#8220;From Time Machine backup or other disk.&#8221;<br />
    * If your Mac has an existing account, don&#8217;t fret. Just open &#8220;Migration Assistant&#8221; located in /Applications/Utilities.</p>
<p>4. Connecting your Time Machine drive to the new machine<br />
Once you have completed the above step, click continue. Migration Assistant will ask you to specify the backup you would like to transfer to the new machine. </p>
<p>5. Select the account you wish to transfer<br />
You will now be presented with a dialog showing all the accounts that were on the old machine. Select one, two, or all of them, and click continue. If you want more options (such as what to transfer), click the gray disclosure triangle next to the account name. The resulting view will allow you to opt-out of transferring certain folders (i.e. Pictures, Documents, etc.).</p>
<p>6. And you&#8217;re done &#8230; almost<br />
In the next few dialog boxes, you can opt to transfer Applications or Network Settings. Once you click transfer, your account will be copied in its entirety to your new Mac.</p>
<p>An important note: If you already have an account on the Mac you&#8217;re transferring to, the account name cannot be the same as the one you&#8217;re transferring. In other words, you can&#8217;t copy an account if one exists on the new computer with the same name.</p>
