Day 47 [Research: "Why is my computer slow?" - Day 9]

Further in the Hardware Section of the pdf file, there was a person who had difficulty figuring out which side of his headphone is left and right so he can speak comfortably on Skype with his buddies. The solution to this was pretty straightforward since you don't have to download a program to solve this. All you need to do is to right click the speaker icon in the notification bar located on the bottom right corner and choose Playback Devices. After that click on the Playback tab and click the Configure option to open up the Speaker setup. From there on you can click the Test option to have Windows play left and right sequence audio to confirm which side is which. There was a question that asked if external hard disks reliable and the answer would be yes. It is much faster and convenient than using multiple DVD disks. However rare it may be, they do fair. There are many reasons for it and the main one is solely just irresponsible care for it. There was a person who recently bought a Sony Vaio Tap PC with Windows 8 as it's OS, however he was not able to access the Bios. He did manage to access the UEFI and that's where the problem lies. He mistakenly changed a setting and disabled UEFI in hopes that the Bios would appear but now when he puts power on his PC it displays the message 'Operating System could not be found'. Luckily for the guy, his PC has a built in Rescue Mode. For him to recover his PC he has to first have his PC off, press and hold down the Assist bottom on the back of the PC and after a couple seconds there should be a Vaio logo appearing in the Rescue Mode Screen. From here on just follow it's instruction and the problem is solved. When upgrading your PC, it's best to know ahead of time if your equipment such as your printer is compatible with it. If not hope that the driver for your equipment has updated so it can be stable and usable.
