Steps how to proceed

 

1. We first suggest that you run the System File Checker Utility. The button provided on the Welcome page, will 'run sfc /scannow' and will check for and replace any corrupted Windows system files. It is expected to take anywhere from 5-10 minutes. If asked to, do reboot.

2. Next we insist that you create a System Restore Point. The provided button will create one, called Safe Point. We always recommend that you create one before making any changes to your system. Should you wish or need too, you can always go back to this Safe Point.

3.Having done that, apply at most one fix at a time and restart your computer. Please check if things are to your satisfaction; and if not, you have the option of restoring back immediately.

It has been tested on Windows 7 & Vista, 32-bit and 64-bit versions. However, FixWin may fail to run if you have modified Windows 7 or Vista Image using third party app like vLite etc, as it may miss some core components required for FixWin to run and thus cause of failure.Give me a comment if this doesnt work for you.

Black Friday and where to get the best Deals

Posted: 27 Nov 2009 01:21 AM PST

Black Friday as far as i know is a day where you can get the most of the killer deals on any Gear and you won’t be paying the same rates which was applicable few weeks back.You can’t just go into a shop and just try to get the stuff you want.If you have to save your pockets then would need some sort of strategy and planning.Retailers are really busting out the deals this year, too. Everyone is on a tighter budget than usual, and sellers know it.So follow some tips and don’t let this deals get away.

Black Friday marks the traditional point in the year when retailers stop operating at a loss (in the red) and start turning a profit (in the black), and they manage to accelerate that shift by separating lots of people from their money with Thanksgiving sales. If you plan well, this separation can result in a fantastic deal for you. If you plan poorly, it’ll result in not only a lack of a good deal but a day wasted out in the cold.

Here are some tips which might be useful to get the best of the deals.

Firstly start with planning on how is your day going to be dealt with and what type of products you would buy.The brands which would take a look etc.While searching for the best deals don’t fall into the trap of buying something just because it’s such a great deal.A $250 laptop that doesn’t do half the stuff you really want it to do is not a bargain compared to a $500 laptop that does.Suppose you need to buy a LG plasma TV then check out various links of the same customer reviews features well before you decide to buy the item.
Research relentlessly, take the stack of advertisements and your list of Black Friday sites, and get information about the purchases you want to make.Reading reviews by fellow consumers and consumer-friendly publications is invaluable.

Research relentlessly, take the stack of advertisements and your list of Black Friday sites, and get information about the purchases you want to make.Reading reviews by fellow consumers and consumer-friendly publications is invaluable.

Check for the reviews of the desired product on most of the sites like Amazon ,Newegg etc.If they say it’s bad then you would get a idea that the product is not worth the steal.More and more retailers are trying to grab a slice of the online market while more and more consumers are opting not to brave Black Friday for deals

Check out sites focused on deal hunting like FatWalletSlickDeals, and Black Friday-focused sites like BlackFriday.infoBlackFriday Ads, and TgiBlackFriday. Not only will you get info about regular in-store Black Friday deals, but you’ll find out about online deals. 

Next thing is reading the fine print as some shops have the deals at the particular timing only.What time does the store open on Black Friday? Are some or all of the deals time sensitive? Often stores will run deals like 15% off all electronics until 10AM or some such variation. How many of the deep-sale and door-buster items will they have in stock? How do they handle door buster items? You don’t want to go to a store where people have to stampede to get to the good items; you do want to go to a store that hands out door tickets to the early shoppers so nobody gets hurt trying to scramble for the good items.

Get there real early You think you’re a serious Black Friday shopper, but you’re not.  Some people have been planning for Black Friday all year.So think about how worth it is too go early and search for shops and get the best deals.If your are longing to get the product don’t let this get away.Here are some sites which might be useful for you.

 You could check out appsheriff too for more of sites . If you have any more tips or links do share would love to hear them.
