svchost provides a shared service process on Windows computers allowing a number of services to run under it in-order to reduce resource consumption, while this approach is smart saving system resources this makes diagnosing and rectifying issues tough as you need to dig out the exact service running under svchost.exe process causing issues. One of the most common issue with svchost.exe is it consuming constant high CPU usage in background, the same issue occurred on my computer where svchost.exe was constantly using 40% processor cycles in computer idle position on my 4 Core CPU. The solution to this involved identifying the culprit service running behind this process and disabling it as demonstrated after the jump. svchost.exe is a generic host process name for services that run from dynamic-link libraries and any one of these underlying dll's/services can be the cause of constant background CPU usage, here is how to identify the problematic service and disabling it on Micro...

The Head of the Science Department at the Niger State Polytechnic, Alhaji Abdulrashid Abdullahi, has been killed by three gunmen on the Zungeru-Tegina highway on January 30, 2014, Thursday. According to NAN, Abdullahi was killed while on an official trip to Kaduna. Abdullahi’s driver, Malam Hussaini Babangida, told a shocking story to the newsmen: Gunmen stopped us at an abandoned check-point after the Zungeru Bridge. I stopped because I thought they were security men but they immediately went for Abdullahi’s door with a machete. I tried to drive away but I heard the lecturer shout, I have been shot as they could not open his door. I drove the vehicle very fast back to Zungeru, where the lecturer was pronounced dead at a hospital. He said that nothing was taken away from them. The state’s Police Public Relations Officer, Mr Richard Oguche, confirmed the incident. He described the attack as a robbery attempt, saying that the police had begun investigation into the incident to bri...

On Android phones you can activate a feature called pattern lock. This feature can be compared to a Windows computer asking for password after the screen saver kicked in, only instead of a password you use a pattern. You get a screen with 9 dots and you draw a pattern of your choice with 4 of them. If you forget your pattern (or have kids that likes to play with phones) you will after 3 faulty attempts be unable to use the pattern to unlock it. Instead you are asked for your Google account and password (that is setup with the phone of course). This is where the problem starts. For many, many users providing the username and password won’t change a thing. For some people changing the password via a computer has worked but that is uncommon. PREFERENCE BEFORE MAIN UNLOCK Some workarounds to try before reading ahead: 1. try entering null as password(together with your google username) 2. try entering your username without @gmail.com 3. Combine 1 and 2 4. Call yourself from ano...

Students of the Lagos State University (LASU) went on the rampage on Thursday, disrupting the university’s second semester examination and destroying properties in the process. The students had closed and halted all activities Wednesday night as they protested within and in front of the school premises, while blocking the main gate and making bonfires on the Lagos-Badagry expressway. According to eyewitness, the students threw stones and sticks at the University Vice Chancellor Prof. John Obafunwa, as he tried to evade them. It was gathered that before the 6-months ASUU strike which ended in December, the school's website had been closed down by the school authorities, preventing students from completing their registration. Now the strike is over, exams are starting and the portal is still closed. One of the students who claimed anonymity said, "Now that we have resumed, it is still the same thing. Exam is starting today and some students haven't yet registe...

The Members of the Lagos State House of Assembly have summoned the Commissioner of Education, Mr. Yinka Oladunjoye, the management of the Lagos State University (LASU) and the Students Union Government over students’ protest. The Chairman of the House Committee on Education, Science and Technology, Mr. Wahab Alawiye-King brought the notice to the House at plenary on January 23, 2014, Thursday, under matter of urgent public importance. Mr. Alawiye-King (APC-Lagos Island II), appealed to LASU authorities to reopen the portal for two days, to enable the students register for the examination, so as to halt the current crisis. He said students were to commence the second semester examination two weeks after resumption, but without the necessary registration, no student could write the examination. It would be noted that the issue generated a heated debate at the plenary, as the lawmakers saw the issue from different perspectives, which almost resulted in an open disagreement. ...

Protesting students of Lagos State University (LASU) have said that the assault launched against one of their colleagues by the institution's Vice Chancellor, Prof. John Obafunwa, was actually what triggered off the violent protests. The protest had gone up for second day when some aggrieved students, who said the University Portal had been closed against their registration had besieged faculties of law, social sciences and the MBA building in the early hours of January 23, 2014, Thursday. Some of the students, who spoke with Daily Trust correspondent at the Ojo campus of the institution, said the protest which began on Wednesday and was not designed to take a violence approach not until one of their colleagues, who was said to have gone and knelt down before the Vice Chancellor, was alleged to have been kicked away.

On Thursday, activities of the Federal University, Otuoke, Bayelsa State, were paralyzed by students who protested increase in school fees and a six-week forced break. Students have blocked the roads to the Otuoke Community and the institution, saying the increase from N55,000 to N 85,000 is unacceptable. A number of business outlets in the hometown of Nigeria's President Goodluck Jonathan also had to close because of the protest. The students say the increase in tuition fees does not correspond to the facilities available. "We are studying under very tedious conditions," one of the students lamented. "We don't have power and water, most of us buy water and contribute money to buy power generating set." However, Vice Chancellor of the university Professor Mobolaji Aluko has denied the insinuations. He explained that the pioneer set of students were already in the first semester of their second year, while the second set were in the second seme...

Thousands of part-time programme graduates of the Lagos State University, Lagos, western Nigeria, now roam the streets daily in frustration following the refusal of the institution to present them with their results and certificates. While many of the graduates have been forced into menial jobs just to earn money barely enough to feed themselves, others have merely resigned to fate taking things as they come years after graduating from the institution without a proof. “You can see where I work now. I never thought that I would end up fixing hair,” Olusegun Adebayo, one of the affected graduates told P.M.NEWS at Ikeja. “Now I’m a hustler. I have realised that I wasted a good number of years thinking I was going to school, hustled to pay my tuition, read so hard for the examinations. Five years after graduation, I can’t even tell people I attended a university.” He said the university management had continued to conceal the true situation and instead has been raising their ho...

Fatal Error The system has become unstable or is busy," it says. "Enter to return to Windows or press Control-Alt-Delete to restart your computer. If you do this you will lose any unsaved information in all open applications." You have just been struck by the Blue Screen of Death. Anyone who uses Mcft Windows will be familiar with this. What can you do? More importantly, how can you prevent it happening? Hardware conflict: The number one reason why Windows crashes is hardware conflict. Each hardware device communicates to other devices through an Interrupt Request Channel (IRQ). These are supposed to be unique for each device.For example, a printer usually connects internally on IRQ 7, The keyboard usually uses IRQ 1, and the floppy disk drive IRQ 6 each device will try to hog a single IRQ for itself.  If there are a lot of devices, or if they are not installed properly, two of them may end up sharing the same IRQ number. When the user tries to use both devi...
