    Multiple Recovery Partitions on Windows 8 Laptop

    Hi, Linney, Thanks for your info. However, I am really concerned about reclaiming a tiny amour of hard disk space by deleting some recovery partitions. I am more interested in combining adjacent partitions together to form a single larger partition on which I could save some big files. But...

    Multiple Recovery Partitions on Windows 8 Laptop

    Hi, Everyone, I have a Dell Inspiron 15R Special Edition laptop with Windows 8 64-bit pre-installed. I did notice right after I received the laptop that there were multiple recovery partitions on the single hard disk drive, and those partitions had no driver letters associated with them. I...

    download managers

    Hi, linney Thanks for your input. However, I wasn't asking the definition of 'cache." That's what I believe the cache setting would do. But what I am really asking was whether there exists such a relationship that 1024KB of data stored in cache would mean the consumption of 1024KB of memory...

    download managers

    Hi, most of the download managers I have used have an option to set a proper cache size to protect the hard disk by reducing the number of times data is written to the hard disk. I wonder if this concept is correct or not. And I set the cache size to 1024KB, does that mean that exactly 1024KB...

    Would running more programs consume more electricity?

    Hi, Just wonder if it would use more electricity if I leave multiple applications open at the same time instead of just the ones I am working on? Sometimes I leave some additonal programs open, in case i need them,so i don't have to wait when i load them.

    Scope of variable defined inside a block in C++

    Thanks for your quick reply, cpjust. And to ArkM,I am new to C++, so not really familiar with the terminology and some concept, thanks for pointing out that. One more question is if i declare another global variable int B, after the if/else statement, would it cause any problem? I mean would...

    Hi, Suppose I have the following piece of code int main() { int A; //expressions if { int B; //expressions } else { //expressions } return 0; } My question is 1. Is it valid in C++ to define a variable such as the integer B inside the "if" block...

    Multiple selection in Word

    fumei, thanks for your tip. Haven't thought of changing keyborad shortcuts in the beginning. Tried it, works great and a lot faster than what I did in the past.

    Multiple selection in Word

    Hi, BlueHorizon Tried what you suggested, it worked great. Thanks I also noticed that holding Ctrl DOES work on other people's computers. So I guess it is a program associated with my computer. ThANKS

    Multiple selection in Word

    Hi, I often need to select several headings and apply styles. But those headings are scattered throughout the documents, I wonder if there is a possible way to select multiple items in Word, so same heading levels or styles could be applied at the same time instead of repeating the same command...

    Drawing unit

    Hi, guys I am new to AutoCAD. I have a question that has been bothering me for quite a long time, and I still haven't figured it out. Most books or online tutorials say when drafting in Model space, one drawing unit should be set equal to one unit in real world, hence the term full size or...

    Model Space vs Paper space

    Thanks, CarlAK. Having looked at the links you provided, and some other articles I googled, I feel there are two different kinds of interpretation of being "full scale." First one Using the same example I mentioned in my post, which is drawing a 10000-foot pipe. The length of pipe drawn in...
