Fix 100% Disk Usage (View In Task Manager)

I just bought a Dell Inspiron 5548: i5, 8GB RAM, 1 TB HDD 5400 RPM. After the first week, I noticed my laptop is getting a little warm. So, I went to the Task Manager to see what is going on with the HDD. I found out that the HDD is using 100% of its' capacity every time i try to open something on my laptop.
This is how I fix the Problem:
Go to Setting → System → Notification and Action → un-check Tips for Window. That's it.
I don't know why it have such effect on the HDD but there must be something going on with that App in window 10. So, if you have the same problem in window 10, do your PC a favor and disable that option. It's useless anyway (at least it is for me).

Installing and Configuring Orace VM on Mac

OK, after installing VM on my MAC Air, It was running slow and USB does not work at all.

This is how I configured it to run faster:

(don't forget to install "Additional Guess CD" to allow VM to run full-screen. 
1. enable 3 CPU cores or more to run VM smoothly (on i5)
2. enable 2D and 3D graphic rendering so the video will not get choppy when watching online
3. optional to enable drag and drop Or Copy to clipboard from VM to Host

And This is how I enable USB on my VM:
1. install extension pack for my VM to enable USB
2. Install the USB controller for the VM OS (if on window) to allow mounting the USB devices
*note: for my window 7 Pro, I download the 
Intel Download-Center for USB-3-0-Driver-Intel-USB-3-0-eXtensible-Host-Controller-Driver-for-Intel-7-Series-C216-Chipset-Family

Then, Restart computer would be a good idea after changing all that setting. Now my window 7 running as it should on my Macbook Air.

Lenovo IdeaPad s400 Touch Wifi Problem Fix After Installing Window 8.1

Ok, Window 8.1 is I guess a better version. However, after upgrading, wifi stops working on my sister's lenovo ideapad s400 touch laptop. I tried to reinstall the whole window just to find out the problem caused by the driver. The Broadcom wireless adapter works fine under window 8 but not 8.1. For some reasons, driver does not work, it shows error "limited connection". How to fix it? well, I just have to search for the driver on Lenovo website. I went to lenovo website just to find out that the driver is not available for 64 bit. It's a feature and should be pre-implemented in window 8.1. So I had to go search for the web and finally found the driver I was looking for.
