Update Windows 7

Here I have small habit in updating my Window 7. I regularly update Windows 7 but until now I never get detected.

The key is manually choose which part to update. First set the automatic update off. Control Panel - Windows Update - Change Setting (On the left of window) - Choose "Check for update but let me choose whether to download and install them".

Now back to Windows Update. do check update.. after several minute (depend on internet connection speed). After donw now there are 2 option that can be click near Install Update button, "XX important update are available" and "XX optional update are available" .. XX indicate the number.

click the important one.. you may update all except this items.. which are:
Update for Windows 7 (KB971033)
   "This update to Windows Activation Technologies detects activation exploits and tampering to key Windows system files."

Another update that I never done are:
1. Update for Windows 7 (KB2718704)
     "Install this update to resolve an issue which requires an update to the certificate revocation list omn Windows system and to keep your systems certificate list up to date."
2. Update for Windows  7 (KB2779562)
     "Install this update to resolve issued caused by revised daylight saving time and time zone laaws in several countries."

The last 2 update that I mention, I never update that because I think it didn't useful to me, (at least in my opinion). The rest you can update, it can enhanced your PC performance like mine.

When the first time I use Windows 7 Ultimate before SP1, my windows explorer often get crash and force restart, especially when I open big file/folder (ex. contain HD/BlueRay movie). But now.. It's fine the crash rarely happen..

Until now this habit give me no problem. My OS almost perfectly work fine. So, hope this small post can be useful to you..

My Exprerience with Dell N4010 Webcam

Hello.. here I post my experience regarding my Laptop Dell 4010 (Inspiron 14R) Webcam.

When I newly bought this laptop the webcam worked perfectly!! but because I re-set my own setting to BIOS about how the laptop reading OS source. I mean, I make my laptop boot from very first removable device such as disket or USB port, to second, from CD/DVD ROM, the the last my master Harddisk. Because that setting, My laptop often failed to boot my Windows 7 OS..(when boooting come out a message that tell me I don't have OS installed).. I think It's because of the OS itself (wrong installation maybe) so I format all drive and re-install new Windows 7 Ultimate. Because of that I lost all driver for hardware installed inside..

SO, from that day I cannot use Bluetooth, Webcam, Receive/Transmit Wifi for almost A YEAR..!ckckck.!! SO now let's just focus on Webcam..

So I start searching in Internet the driver for my Webcam.. but nothing convincing because most my tries failed (I forgot what I tried) But the driver I tried (which left till today) is R168730. I install and result nothing.. If I try recall again maybe I ever try another software such as Live!Cam and etc.. But all nothing..

I gave up for several month and when I met my friend who sold me this laptop, I ask him the resolve. He told me to install "Webcam Max" so I can use Webcam (You may search in Google the download link, it not hard to find... and it's need a license key, you know what to do).. After I found the crack. WOW!! I can do webcam now.!!! hahaha...

after that I left it until yesterday, yesterday I try once again to re-upgrade my Laptop.. Do updating all my software including driver.. Update driver can be done on www.dell.com/support/ So I found out the new driver R230103. This driver also well known as Dell Webcam Central.. You can find the download link in Google.. but mine from http://ftp.dell.com/monitors/Dell_SX2210-Monitor_Webcam%20SW%20RC1.1_%20R230103.exe  Surprisingly.. after I install this.. My Webcam become better (now I can set Anti-blur motion, thanks to the Webcam Central just installed).. Without Webcam Max I still can do webcam using Dell Webcam Central.

Now if you can install and use other support software that use webcam such as Live!Cam.

Some people encounter the Imaging Device - Integrated Webcam undetected. I don't know if I ever encounter this problem.. but If I do, I will try do updating my Window 7.. be careful not updating your windows and get a warning regarding ingenuity of your OS. you may see my another small post about Update Windows 7. If it didn't do any good, you may seeking help from Google again..

Hope this small post of my experience can inspire you in troubleshoot your 'trouble'.

Happy Expressing..!!
