ImgBurn is tiny and powerful software to burn any kind of cd or dvd, but in order to use it you must be hacker or at least information technology expert. The big benefit with ImgBurn is that it is free and you are free to use on commercial or business computers.

5. Press ok the and save somewhere the CUE file.
6. From the main menu of ImgBurn, select the button “write image file to disk”
7. Load the CUE file created previously
8. Load an empty disk

Microsoft sucks! Anyway… Go Start -> Settings -> menu -> all settings -> usb to pc -> uncheck "enable faster data synchronization". If you lock your pda, the sync from now on will be started only with your pda is unlocked.

Speed Up Windows 7 Indexing

Works in windows 7.


Problem: the indexing of the system is too slow and you cannot files with "search" or you cannot find several items in the ms office suite... because "search results may be incomplete because items are still being indexed". And this happens because system's indexing is sleeping. This also might happen due windows update.
  1. Start -> in Search box type to find -> "group policy" or “gpedit.msc”  and launch "Edit group policy"
  2. In the free go to at: Local computer policy -> Computer configuration -> Administrative templates -> Windows components -> Search
  3. Double click on "Disable indexer backoff" 
  4. Select "Enabled" and click ok to close.
  5. In most of the time it reboot doesn't required.
If you open the "indexing options" from control panel of the pc, you will see the counter to be increased faster.

An Microsoft says: If enable it, the search indexer backoff feature will be disabled. Indexing will continue at full speed even when system activity is high. If disabled, backoff logic will be used to throttle back indexing activity when system activity is high. Default is disabled.
