This is only a very small tip but anyway it’s useful. Did you know that you can change the volume in Windows 7 using the mouse wheel?
It’s simple: click on the speaker icon in the task bar and the volume dialog will appear. Now move the mouse wheel up or down to change the volume.
Windows 7 has some of this nice features. The thing is to know them 
I guess there are much more.

Some weeks ago I installed a Solid State Disk in my Latitude D820. The experience was very nice! Boot time decreased to 30 seconds. But two days ago a bad surprise: Starting the notebook did only show a blank screen (BIOS messages and Windows start logo appeared). After pressing FN-F8 (CRT/LCD) I could see a message box “LogonUI.exe – Application Error”. Pressing OK, waiting 10 seconds and the same message appeared again…
In my case the only way to get Windows 7 booting again was:
- Insert original Windows 7 CD and boot from it
- Start the console
- Enter “sfc /scannow /offbootdir=C:\ /offwindir=C:\Windows
I’m not sure what happened, but I hope the SSD disc has not failure.

Sometimes it’s need to check your DNS configuration for correct mail-server (MX), name-server (NS) and further settings.
Recently I found a nice online tool which checks the health and configuration of your domain. The online check is available on intoDNS.com. To use it just browse to this site and enter your domain name and you will get many useful checks and information about your server settings.

You may have been wondering like me that no telnet command is available in Windows 7 and Vista after a fresh installation. Sometimes it’s still useful.
But it’s still available, only disabled:
- Open your control panel
- Select programs
- Select “Turn windows features on or off” on the left side
- Within the box enable [x] Telnet Client
When looking into these disabled windows features, there are features like:
- Services for NFS
- Subsystem for UNIX-based applications
Guess I want to check these NFS features…
