Every now and then something breaks on your computer. Maybe you get a bad system update from Microsoft or cosmic rays flip the wrong bit on your system. Whatever the cause, often your problem has nothing to do with hardware, but lies within the software powering it, instead.

This recently happened to me when a USB 3.0 port on my system suddenly stopped working. I wasn't sure how it happened, and when I looked into the problem Windows displayed its infamous "error code 43." Luckily, this problem can often be fixed in just a few clicks. Try this out before freaking out if one of your PC components suddenly stops working.

Device Manager

deviceworkingproperly — This USB component is working, but if you've got a device problem this tab will tell you.

On Windows 8.1, right-click the Start button and select Device Manager from the contextual menu. Windows 7 users can find out how to open Device Mangerhere.

Let's continue using the borked USB port example. Fixing code 43 isn't just for USB devices, though—it's a quick tip you can use to help troubleshoot any PC component that ceases to work due to a software issue.

Once the device manager is open look for the heading that says Universal Serial Bus controllers and click it to reveal a list of all the USB devices on your PC.

In the list, you may see an item that has a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark in it and says "Unknown Device." Click on that and another window will open. Under the General tab you'll see a window that saysDevice status. For this tip to work, that window should say "Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)".

Now it's time to get to work.

devicemanager1 — Sometimes an uninstall can fix it all.

Open the Driver tab and then click theUninstall button. This will remove the USB controllers driver software (the low-level programming that makes the hardware work) from your system.

Next, you have to put it back. Close the smaller window for your USB device and in the main Device Manager window clickAction > Scan for hardware changes. Windows will notice that the USB device is lacking driver software and will reinstall it.

After that's done, you can click on the USB device again and under the Generaltab and under Device

status it should now say the device is working properly.

January 24, 2016 1 Comment

This guide shows you how to fix blue screen of death errors (or BSoD errors) for Windows 8.

Common fixes

In Windows 8, most Blue Screen of Death errors can be fixed by using System Restore (if enabled and a restore point is available) or by removing the recently installed software or driver that caused the error and rebooting Windows 8.

To fix the blue screen error with the name “INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE”, try any of the following fixes explained below:

Fix #1: Run the chkdsk command

You need your original Windows 8 installation disc for this:

Restart your PC
Press any key to boot from the disc
Click Repair your computer
Select Troubleshoot, then Advanced Options, then Command Prompt
Type this command:
```
chkdsk /f /r
```
Hit Enter

Type the following commands:

bootrec /fixmbr
bootrec /fixboot
bootrec /scanos
bootrec /rebuildbcd

Type exit and remove the installation disk from the disk tray

Restart the computer

If you don’t have the installation disk, use Easy Recovery Essentials to rebuild the BCD:

Download Easy Recovery Essentials from here. Choose your Windows version (XP, Vista, 7 or 8) before you go to download

```
sel vol 1
```
Assign a letter to this partition, one that is not available, for example x:\. Type this command to assign the letter:
```
assign letter=x:
```
When the success message appears (“DiskPart successfully assigned the drive letter or mount point.“), type exit to quit the DiskPart utility
Type the next command, but remember to replace x: with the partition’s letter you chose earlier:
```
cd /d x:\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\
```
Type the bootrec command:
```
bootrec /fixboot
```
Backup the old BCD with this command:
```
ren BCD BCD.backup
```
Recreate the BCD, but remember to replace x: with the partition’s letter you chose earlier:

Science Snippet: Jan. 24, 2016

January 24, 2016 Add Comment

A longtime smoker would probably not appreciate hearing about the many health problems associated with this habit. However, for smokers willing to pay the price of attempting to give up nicotine, a new study provides additional incentive. The thickness of the cerebral cortex (the “thinking” part of the brain) was measured in brain scans of 500 present and former smokers more than 70 years old. It was found that smoking accelerated age-related thinning compared to non-smokers. Cortical thickness of subjects who had quit smoking along the way appeared to regain some of the original thickness, although years were required to bring about such a change.

How To Earn $100-200 Per Month From Internet?

January 22, 2016 Add Comment

Lately, I've started taking quite a bit of interest in Quora community and I just love how straight forward questions that people ask. It's a fabulous community for getting ideas to serve your readers. A person their asked this very question that I planned to write about here on bloggingehow so that more of our youngsters could get benefited.

This won't be a long posts, rather I'll stick to the core and jot down couple of actionable strategies you can implement and start seeing results.

So that actual question was:

Let's say that I want to earn a little extra $100-200 per month from the Internet. What are the options that I have to accomplish that?

Options that you have to earn 100-200$ online

The options that you would consider would depend on the time you have and the your working temperament.

1 You could opt for freelancing

The best option to get started is Fiverr! Fiverr is taking over the freelancing world pretty fast compared to its competitors. At Fiverr, you sell your skills and time for 5$ per task that you do.

This is the minimum you can charge and there is no limit to your growth once your profile becomes huge.

So just ask your self, what skills do you have. If you don't have ideas as to what you can or should do, you can visit fiverr's marketplace and see what sort of skills people are offering to their potential clients.

It blows my mind how creative people are when it comes to coming up with more skills to offer.

Learn from the best ones in the community and it should get you on the track fast. Notice what tactics the best sellers are utilizing and then follow that path.

You could offer translation skills in your native language and it's one of the easiest thing as everybody has a solid grip on their native language.

You could do that for 3-4 hours a day and it should get your 10-20$ a day with 5$ per client (minimum). This means you can exceed the limit of 200$ by a huge margin!

Making 100-200$ online is not big of deal now days. It just needs your attention and the fire in the belly.

Just today, I published my answer to a question on Quora that was: Could you make $2000 a month as a full-time blogger?

The Challenge...

As with everything in life there comes a challenge. On Fiverr, the competition is pretty high and you would need to put in your all mind and effort to stand out of the crowd to attract the clients. You can either put more value to your gig by adding bonus features or you could compromise on the rate.

Bonus features look something like that I have often see in logo or other art work gigs:

As a bonus, I'll also provide a .psd (photoshop) file.

2 Stepping In a High CPC Market and Starting a blog

Even though blogging is a long term business and you get to see the rewards slowly, you can still research on the highest payment Google AdSense keywords and the niches that have the highest CPC (Cost per click for the ads).

You can target a long tail keyword in such profitable niches and start publishing articles daily. With in 30 days you'll have about 30 articles published.

If these articles portray authority and are well written both for readers and search engines, you'll start seeing traffic. If a single click can give you 50$ plus, you can calculate where this is going...

If you publish one post a day, and it attracts 50 visitors daily and you publish 30 posts in your first month, you get 1500 visitors per month. Generally, the average click through rate for AdSense Ads are around 0.5% to 1-2% if your niche is targeting less techie people.

As techie people don't really click on the ads and they spot them well.

So with 0.5%, you get about 7 clicks in a month, which is pretty less and I have just put that down to give you an idea of the opportunity that we have.

With 7 clicks, if each click costs 30-50$, your goal of earning 200$ plus gets easily full filled.

It's a great idea for students to earn a little bit of extra pocket money and it works!

The thing is, average day Internet user sees this 'online money making' world as a scam. They never did their research.

Just ask your self, if it was that much of a scam, why would there be millions of websites earning fortunes online! Why did you had Internet grown so much. Why would people invest so much of their time online?

Its such a lucrative industry which will online expand in the future.!

Hope this post helps you out to bag those extra dollars as pocket money.

Till next time, take care fellows,

Allah Hafiz.
