How to fix the Aero Theme in Windows

Wednesday, August 7, 2013 Posted by Glenn 0 comments

article by: Glenn Posadas

Having an aero theme is one of the good reasons in choosing windows 7 and 8 rather than its predecessors (e.g. vista, xp, etc...)

Anyways, you are here to fix your theme, right?
So, I have here my compilations of steps/solutions in solving your problem, not to mention my own solution.

Go ahead and continue reading this article...


Try one of these options:

1) In your desktop, right click and select PERSONALIZE. Under the "Aero Themes", select any of those themes, and later you can change the wallpaper if you want to. We just want to enable our aero power. XD

2) Click start, Right click MY COMPUTER then click PROPERTIES. And then Rate your computer. It may take some time to complete. If your computer is already rated, then try other options here.

3) Reinstall your Video Card Driver.

4) Check if your video card has no bloated caps, if there are some, replace them immediately (if you only have a knowledge in electronics, otherwise, seek some help).

5) If you have a stardock, then go to STARDOCK > MyColor > and then change the theme.

6) Uninstall an "ASUS-???" related software. Asus-?? means that I can't remember what is the exact name of that software that hinders your computer to be on aero theme.

7) Last, my final option, and probably the best option:
Go to Start. Type services.msc and then press Enter. Scroll down until you find the Desktop Window Manager Session Manager. Right click, and then click start.



If ever your service is already running, yet you are not experiencing the aero theme, right click again that service and click RESTART!!!
Voila! I am sure that one of these options worked for you! So hit like or share. :)

How to fix Prolific USB-to-Serial Comm Port

Thursday, July 25, 2013 Posted by Glenn 0 comments

Windows can't install your Prolific USB-to-Serial (converter). Okay, this is just easy to fix, but honestly it took me 15 minutes to figured out what was wrong. I already tried several versions of prolific drivers and other drivers for USB to RS232 converter made by other manufacturers.

Anyways, mine is made by Prolific. Prolific is the manufacturer, there are lots of USB-to-Serial RS232 converters out in the market that are not complicated to install.

Okay, getting straight, mine now is working! Kindly uninstall any prolific (non-working) drivers in your computer and then follow my instructions.

1. Download this file. CLICK HERE (my Google Drive Mirror)
2. Save the file in your Desktop (for easy access).
3. Click START >> Right click My Computer >> Click Properties >> Click Device Manager.
4. Click USB-Serial Controller, or under the Ports, please click Prolific USB-to-Serial
5. Click Update Driver
6. Click Browse and locate the folder that you've downloaded from my site.
7. Finally, let me know if this works for you :)

Unidentified Network Appears in WiFi

A wild "Unidentified Network" appears in your face? Annoying unidentified network in your WiFi? Some of your desktop and laptops are already connected to your network as well as yo the internet, but one of your stupid laptop/desktop refuse to receive an I.P address?

Continue reading as I help you to fix this irritating issue...


There are actually many ways to solve this.

1. Disabling the ##ID_String... service in your services. Click here for more information. Cause I have already wrote an article about this.

2. Troubleshoot the problem using the windows troubleshooting tool. This somehow helps sometimes.

3. Installing Reliable Multicast Protocol in IPV4 and IPV6. This sometimes solve the problem for some people.

And lastly, my own way:

4. Assign a static IP Address on your IPv4.
Alright, so go to Network and Internet in your control panel > Network Connections > Right click your WiFi adapter.
After that, click the IPv4, Choose "use the following IP Address".
Assign your desired IP. Say, 192.168.1.69  (yeaaa, I love 69. Just kidding!)
Then the Subnet Mask will automatically be added. And then Click OK, don't mind the other textboxes.

Tadaaaaaaa! no internet connection yet, right? :) Haha! Because we are not yet done!
go to IPv4 again, and choose automatically assign IP Address. That should solve your problem!

Please share if it does so. :)
