Many a time your files on the Hard Disk could get corrupt due to malfunctioning of your hard disk. The hard disk is partitioned and then divided into platters and sectors where your files are saved. Any of these sectors getting corrupt due to virus or by its usage will lead to erasure of your files partially by which you will lose your data.

To find out which part of  the memory of your computer is functioning well and which parts have become defunct, you first have to back up all your data by making a separate copy of it. The utility with which you can check the memory of your computer is called “Check Disk” in Windows. Check Disk will first carry out Integrity checks of your memory where the data in the sectors that may be bad will be over written. To run the check disk utility :

• Select “My Computer”.
• Right Click on the partition “C” or “D”.
• Click on “Properties”.
• Click on “Tools”
• Select “Error checking”
• Select “Check Now”.
• You will get three options which are “Check Disk Options”, “Automatically Fix File Errors”, “Scanning and Recovery of Bad Sectors”

The procedure for scanning and setting the memory right would have to be taken step by step and partition by partition. After which you can load all your data from back up on to the memory.

The beauty of iPhone virtual apps is that real and virtual worlds collide in a big way. It is one of the most amazing augmented reality applications that will begin appearing for the iPhone 3GS. The iPhone virtual apps overlays some useful info on your view of the real world using the iPhone’s camera. It makes use of common features including, an internet connection and GPS, but because they also utilize a compass, only users of the new iPhone 3GS will be able to install it. My favorite is this concept of an application that proposes to use facial recognition to overlay people’s social networking profiles when the application is engaged.

In computer parlances, VNC or Virtual Networking Computing is a graphical desk top system that uses the RFB protocol to remotely control another computer. Now, with the help of Veency, which is a free app, a similar thing can be done with a Jailbraked iPhone developed by Jay Freeman Saurik, the master mind behind Cydia. It allows iPhone owners to remotely control their iPhone from the comfort of their PC or Mac desktop via a VNC client. All you need is to install Veency through Cydia or ICY and then restart your iPhone. Windows users should check out UltraVNC or TightVNC, while Mac OS X users have the excellent prototype of the VNC.

Install & Use Veency for iPhone:

• Firstly, install Veency from Cydia or ICY and reboot or restart your iPhone.
• Next, go to the home screen and then to the Settings tool. Therafter, click Wi-Fi, then the arrow to the right of your home connection and note the IP address listed there.
• Now, all you need is a VNC client to connect to your device. Windows users should check out UltraVNC or TightVNC, while Mac OS X users have the excellent prototype of the VNC.
• Finally, open your client; enter the iPhone’s IP address as the host, then pick up your device. You will see a prompt to accept or reject the connection from your computer’s IP address.
• Hit “Accept,” and you’ll notice a small VNC icon in the upper-right, near the battery indicator and the installation is complete.

Note: You must use iPhone mods and hacks at your own risk because installing third Party iPhone apps require you to jailbreak the iPhone before installing the native software and apps.
