As a PC guru you are followed by your friends and relatives or by others to make you to solve the irritating small PC software problems ;-( I know you are very frustrated by this because they even don't know how to describe their actual problem.
But Microsoft knew your pain, So they had came up with a good solution(PSR) by which you can ask your friend/relative/others to run this and send the generated report, So that you can solve their problem with ease.Now lets see how to work with it,  
Just follow this simple steps.
  • Click on "Start" and type "PSR" and press enter.Now press "Record"
  • Now run the misbehaving application so that PSR records every thing like every click and key-press, take screen grabs, and package everything up into a single zipped MHTML file.That's it you are all set to go and solve the problem.
Start Up Repair:
One time or other every body faces this start up problem for a reason or for no-reason, So its good to create a system repair disc straight away in case you run into problems booting the OS later on. Just follow this simple steps.
  • Click Start > Maintenance > Create a System Repair Disc

Find out Hidden wallpapers and themes:
We all knew that while windows 7 is been installed it will ask for your country, Time Zone etc.., Now based on your responses windows 7 will automatically selects which wallpapers to install by default.
Suppose you had selected your country as India, So that windows seven will install some wallpapers which are related to India.

Import file over a network to Windows Live MovieMaker:

  • Run REGEDIT
  • Now navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows Live\Movie Maker,
  • Now add a DWORD value called AllowNetworkFiles and set it to 1 to add network support.
  • That's it your done.
Custom Power Switch:
By default you see the "ShutDown" button on start button. But you are the man who reboots your pc several times a day then you can change "ShutDown" to "ReStart" in a few click by fallowing this simple steps.

Change The Background Image Of Windows 7 Logon Screen

How would you like to change the logon screen background in Windows 7 so as to give your Windows a customized look and feel? With a small tweak it is possible to customize the Windows 7 logon screen and set your own picture/wallpaper as the background. Changing logon screen background in Windows 7 is as simple as changing your desktop wallpaper. Well here is a step by step instruction to customize the logon screen background.
Let we start: 
  •  The image you need to set as the background should be a .jpg file and it’s size should not exceed 245KB.
  • The image resolution can be anything of your choice. However I prefer 1440 x 900 or1024 x 768. You can use any of the photo editing software such as Photoshop to compress and set the resolution for your image. Once you’re done, save this image as backgroundDefault.jpg.
  • You will need to copy this image to
C:\Windows\system32\oobe\info\backgrounds
  • You will need to create that path if it does not already exist on your computer.
  • Now open the Registry Editor (Start -> Run -> Type regedit) and navigate to the following key
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion    
            \Authentication\LogonUI\Background
  • If Background does not exist rightclick LogonUI, select New and then Key, and then name it Background. Now locate OEMBackground (listed on the right side). If it does not exist, right-click Background and select New and then DWORD and name it OEMBackground.
  • Double-click on OEMBackground and set the Value Data to 1.
  • Now log-off to see the new logon screen background. If you would like to revert back to the default background, just set the Value Data back to 0.
