What is the purpose of Windows registry?
The Registry is a database that stores your computer hardware,software,security,user settings or profiles,and property settings for folders and programs. When you perform a normal full boot of your computer,Windows process the information in the Registry to properly configure your computer. For example,the Registry contains information on hardware devices and resources (such as IRQs,I/O addresses, and DMA channels)assigned to both Plug and Play and legacy devices. During booting Windows uses this information to identify and configure hardware devices,reconfigure hardware devices (if necessary), and update the Registry. Microsoft recommends that you use tools, such as Device Manager, the Control Panel, and property sheets, to make configuration changes, rather than opening and editing the Registry. If you open the Registry and make a mistake while you are changing a configuration setting, you might not even be able to use your computer, or you might introduce errors in its hardware and software configuration so that it does not function properly. It's also important to note that if you open and make a change to the Registry, Windows does not warn you if the change you made in incorrect.
How do you save in docx format?
Generally Microsoft word has kept with the same layout. With that being said on the top left hand corner of this window the words "file" should be there click this. After that a separate page (or list for the older versions of word) will show up. On that list there should be the words "save" click that. Once you have that done a little window should pop up. In the window click the words "desktop" and after that in the bar on the bottom of the window there should be a bar named "file name" click on the white part of the bar and type the name of the file. Once you are done entering the name of the file hit the "enter" key or the box that says "Save" on the bottom right of the window. I hope that helped.
Which utility is used to partition a new hard drive in windows98?
Fdisk.
Windows 98 cd's are not bootable (for the most part) so in order to partition a new hard disk in preparation of a windows 98 install, you will need to make a boot floppy (or boot CD, or USB) which will enable you to partition and format the disk for windows install.
Follow the link below for some disk images, utilities, and workarounds for the windows 98 bootdisk dilemma.

Where do files go when they are deleted from a hard drive?
It goes to the Recycle Bin, of course. Then if you delete it the second time (from the Bin), it gets deleted as if you'd deleted it in DOS - which is to say it gets marked as deleted; you can restore it if you don't overwrite it first, and you need to supply the first letter of the file name.
Discuss the basic differences between external schema conceptual schema and internal schema?
The internal schema describes how the data will be physically stored and accessed, using the facilities provided by a particular DBMS. For example, the data might be organized so that all the insurance policies belonging to a given customer were stored close together, allowing them all to be retrieved into the computer's memory in a single operation. The conceptual schema (sometimes called the logical schema) describes the stored data in terms of the data model of the DBMS. In a relational DBMS, the conceptual schema describes all relations that are stored in the database The external schemasspecify views that enable different users of the data to see it in different ways. As a simple example, some users of policy data might not require details of the commission paid. By providing them with a view that excludes the Commission Rate column, we would not only shield them from unwanted (and perhaps unauthorized) information, but also insulate them from changes that might be made to the format of that data.

How do you partition a mac hard drive without losing data?
If you are running a recent version of Mac OS X you can use the Disk Utility software found in the Utilities folder within the Applications folder. As with all disc based operations it is good practice to have a back-up copy of your content. From the Disk Utility Help page (The Help menu is your friend):
Creating new partitions on a disk
You may be able to create multiple partitions on your disk without losing any data. Each partition works like a separate disk. You may need to create a new partition if you want to install multiple operating systems on your computer. Partitions can also help you organize your files.
NOTICE:Back up your data before creating new partitions on your disk as a precaution.
To create new partitions on a disk:
1. Select the disk from the list at the left, and click Partition.
2. Select an existing partition in the Volume Scheme list, and click Add (+). Disk Utility splits the partition into two, leaving the data in one of the new partitions. If the partition is less than half-full, Disk Utility creates two partitions of equal size. Otherwise, it creates one partition large enough for the data, and another partition with the remaining space.
3. Resize the partitions as needed. You can drag the dividers between the partitions in the Volume Scheme list, or you can select a partition in the Volume Scheme list, and then enter a value in the Size field.
4. Choose how to format the partitions that will be erased or created. For each new partition, select it, enter a name, and then choose a format.
5. Click Apply.
Or you can get under the bonnet and do all that geeky stuff:
You need to use the "diskutil" command line program, along with the "-resizeVolume" flag...
Here is the help information for this command:
#################
Disk Utility Tool
Usage: diskutil resizeVolume [Mount Point|Disk Identifier|Device Node] size
Non-destructively resize a disk. You may increase or decrease its size.
When decreasing size, you may optionally supply a list of new partitions to create.
Ownership of the affected disk is required.
Valid partition sizes are in the format of
Valid sizes are B(ytes), K(ilobytes), M(egabytes), G(igabytes), T(erabytes)
Example: 10G (10 gigabytes), 4.23T (4.23 terabytes), 5M (5 megabytes)
resizeVolume is only supported on GPT media with a Journaled HFS+ filesystem.
A size of "limits" will print the range of valid values for the current filesystem.
Example: diskutil resizeVolume disk1s3 10G JHFS+ HDX1 5G MS-DOS HDX2 5G
Valid filesystems: "Case-sensitive HFS+" "Journaled HFS+" "Case-sensitive Journaled HFS+" "HFS+" "HFS" "MS-DOS FAT32" "MS-DOS FAT16" "MS-DOS" "MS-DOS FAT12" "UFS" "Linux" "Swap"
#################
So here's what you need to do: (if you want to install a Linux partition)
In the example from the help command, they are creating a second and third partition on the disk - you don't need to do this (because diskutil doesn't create ext3 or ext4 partitions)...leave the space as "free" or unpartitioned space.
When I'm giving you commands below, a normal shell prompt is shown as a "$" (you don't need to type in the $)....
1.) MAKE SURE YOU AREN'T RUNNING ANY OTHER PROGRAMS WHEN YOU'RE RUNNING THESE COMMANDS. YOU WILL NEED TO RESTART THE MACHINE IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE PARTITION GETS RESIZED.
2.) Use the diskutil command line program to determine which device number your startup disk is:
$ diskutil list
This will list out information that shows device numbers (ie. disk0, disk1s5, etc.). Determine the identifier for your hard drive (it will be listed under "name" - you probably only have one partition, and it's probably the last on on the list).
/dev/disk0
#: type name size identifier
0: Apple_partition_scheme *149.1 GB disk0
1: Apple_partition_map 31.5 KB disk0s1
2: Apple_HFS Macintosh HD 148.9 GB disk0s3
3.) You need to determine how much free space you have available, and how much you want to split off for Linux (you will want to leave a little for the Mac side, but have enough for Linux or whatever you are doing)...For the most part, if you "Get Info" on the hard drive, and it shows that you have 95 GB capacity, and that 40 GB are used, 75 GB would be a good size to resize the Mac partition to (giving you 35 GB of space there, and 20GB free space for LInux)...
4.) To do the actual resizing, you'll need to use the "sudo" command to run the command as root:
$ sudo diskutil resizeVolume disk0s3 75GB
How do you tell if your computer is being accessed remotely?
If it is running slower than usual, usually says if your are being monitored or not. If you think it is spyware, run a full computer scan with something like norton. If you think you are being monitored over a network, check how much data your computer is transferring by using task manager (CTRL+SHIFT+ESC) and clicking on the network tab. If you are not downloading any files or using the internet and the graph shows above 5% for more than a few seconds you might be being monitored

How can you get sound on your computer when the control panel says that there is no audio device?
Bummer, sounds like yo need to install a device driver for your soundcard.
If you have a brand name PC you can probably get it from the manufacturers website. If you don't then you'll need to find out what model soundcard you've got. Download Craig Hart's PCI32 diagnostics to find out.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The problem probably started due to driver incompatibilities. I had a similar one when I installed a new graphics card and updated drivers.
Start up your computer and go to your BIOS (hold down the key to go to 'Setup').
Go to Onboard Audio and switch from Auto to Enabled (or perhaps viceversa).
This is what worked for me. Credit goes to the good people at the Nvidia forums. Good luck.

How do you resize photos in Microsoft Word?
Open the image file you wish to edit. Click the Menu / Image / Stretch/Skew Image. Choose a percentage figure to resize the image. To avoid distortion, choose the same percentage for the horizontal and vertical stretch. Click OK. Once you have the desired size, click File / Save As... to prevent overwriting the original image.
Alternatively you can select the whole image (Ctrl + A) and use + and - to resize the image.
