Partedmajic reset windows password12/5/2023 ![]() Also when Slackware 15 is released, I will be starting a new project called Parted Magic Arm. When Slackware 15 is released the 32bit userland will be moved to 64bit. Give it another 30 seconds and enter the following into the Terminal window to see if the drive is still Frozen. from the late 2010’s and none of them will even boot Parted Magic. Then, with the PM OS system active, pull the power cable on the affected drive (you can leave data cable attached) wait a few seconds and plug it back in. ![]() If that did not work because the drive is Locked AND Frozen as indicated from hdparm -I.įirst make sure the drive is not mounted. When finished exit the program and try to enter the password from the Intel RST window. This video is about resetting Windows 10 password, In this video I will demonstrate how to reset or remove forgotten windows password. An SSD will Secure Erase almost instantly and a 1TB HDD can take around 168min. Note that there will be no status/progress bar while it is working. Once you are presented with the Parted Magic desktop, go to the left bottom corner of the screen and choose System Tools -> Change Windows Password. Just select option 1 and press Enter to use the default settings. The next screen you have to select your graphic settings. If there are multiple accounts on the computer, choose the one you want to reset. On the boot menu of Ultimate Boot CD, choose Parted Magic and press Enter. System Tools ->Erase Disk->Internal-> Click continueĪt this point replace 'NULL' with a simple password, something like 123 should be sufficient and click 'OK'Ĭlick 'YES' to begin the Secure Erase. On the sign-in screen, type your Microsoft account name if its not already displayed. You can attempt to perform the Secure Erase again with a determined password. The password resetting tool in Trinity Rescue Kit, called winpass, is actually just an automated script for the chntpw (Offline NT Password & Registry Editor) tool, which allows you to reset the passwords of any local account in Windows 8, 7, Vista and XP. At this point I exited the PartedMagic OS and found that the drives were in fact unlocked and fully functional. If sucsessful, it will return that the drives password is "".

Or the fact that when we mention speed we should technically speak of the average of all the speeds of all the particles. Image of a thermometer.Īs always, there's much more to these concepts than what we've mentioned here, like for example the fact that speed is related to the kinetic energy by means of a square root. Jump to our particles velocity calculator and thermal energy calculator to learn more. This is very closely related to the concept of thermal energy and means that heat is just another expression of kinetic energy. What this means is that the higher the temperature of something, the higher the particles velocity a.k.a.the molecules that make up that something vibrate faster. There is no need to worry, however, because when we dig deeper into what is temperature, the answer is fairly simple: temperature is speed, or rather the momentum of the atoms and molecules that make up a material. To do this we have to turn to physics, in particular to thermodynamics and statistical physics, which is like thermodynamics meets quantum physics. We all know what is hot or cold, but temperature? Temperature is much harder to define without getting technical, which is precisely why we will get technical. Separate calculations are thus required using Equation 1 for the material below and above the phase change temperature.It is always hard to come up with a good definition for everyday terms, but with temperature, it is notoriously difficult. The Cp value (from Equation 1) of a material also changes with a change in state. How much energy is required to melt 50 lbs of lead?Ĭhanging state (melting and vaporizing) is a constant temperature process. Hv = Latent Heat of Vaporization (Btu/ lb ) Q D = Heat Required to Melt/Vaporize Materials Processed in Working Cycle ( Wh ) Q C = Heat Required to Melt/Vaporize Materials During Heat-Up ( Wh ) ![]() This same amount of energy is released as the vapor condenses back to a liquid. The latent heat of vaporization Hv of the substance is the energy required to change a substance from a liquid to a vapor. Another state change is involved in vaporization and condensation. The heat needed to melt a material is known as the latent heat of fusion and represented by Hf. Heat Required to Melt or Vaporize a Material In considering adding heat to a substance, it is also necessary to anticipate changes in state that might occur during this heating such as melting and vaporizing. How much heat energy is needed to change the temperature of 50 lbs of copper from 10☏ to 70☏? Heated media, work being processed, vessels, racks, belts, and ventilation air should be included. This equation should be applied to all materials absorbing heat in the application. ∆T = Temperature Rise of Material ( T Final – T Initial )(☏) ![]() Q B = Heat Required to Raise Temperature of Materials Processed in Working Cycle ( Wh ) Q A = Heat Required to Raise Temperature of Materials During Heat-Up ( Wh ) ![]() Since all calculations are in watts, an additional conversion of 3.412 Btu = 1 Wh is introduced yielding: Calling the amount of heat added Q, which will cause a change in temperature ∆T to a weight of substance W, at a specific heat of material Cp, then Q =w The specific heat capacity of a substance is the quantity of heat needed to raise the temperature of a unit quantity of the substance by one degree. Absorbed Energy, Heat Required to Raise the Temperature of a Material Because substances all heat differently, different amounts of heat are required in making a temperature change.

Classful subnetting chart12/4/2023 ![]() ![]() The breakdown of network bits and host bits shows which parts of the IP address will not change in a given network. Each of these classes uses a certain number of bits as the network portion of the address and the rest for the host portion as shown in this chart: There are three main private IP ranges that are used in the majority of internal networks, Class A, Class B, and Class C. Although the classful network concept is not used anymore in today’s public internet, which uses classless inter-domain routing instead, the concept of splitting an IP address into a network portion and a host portion to section off the network is still used with subnetting. The idea with classful networks is essentially that IPv4 addresses are broken up into four octets (eight binary bit sections) that are then categorized in classes based on the number of hosts they are intended to accommodate. To subnet properly there are topics you need a basic understanding of: binary (base-2) numbers, and classful networks. Here are the basics of subnetting as I understand them plus a few things to consider sprinkled in at the end. To do that, I had to blow the dust off the subnetting knowledge that I haven’t had to use in some time and reacquaint myself with the calculation of hosts. But there’s no other choice with our network, and because I am a glutton for punishment, I decided to take on this task myself and not go the consultant route. How many addresses do we need? What IP scheme are we going to use? How many addresses will be given with DHCP and how many assigned statically? Will we separate out the types of devices or simply place them in a certain section of the range (such as putting all servers in the first 50 addresses of a range)?Īs a result, once a network is made, usually it doesn’t get recreated or changed drastically. This allows for each group to have as much room as we could possibly need going forward while still keeping the network logically organized.Īs funny as it may seem, many seasoned IT professionals are still a bit intimidated by subnetting simply because they don’t want to bother with the work it takes to implement it. This means a separate subnet and corresponding VLAN for each group of devices such as printers, servers, workstations, APs, etc. So I’m building out a new network structure that can accommodate all of the devices we currently have, separated by types of devices, and with room for growth. As the needs of the business grew, it became painfully obvious that a single /24 subnet that accommodates up to 254 hosts wasn’t enough anymore. The network was conceived by consultants when there were not as many devices and users to accommodate. ![]() I’m currently working on a project that fits that description to a tee. But as the business grows or its needs change there may come a time when the initial network structure no longer works. Often, consultants provide network design services to budding businesses to help establish a network that fits their needs at the time. ![]() Subnets are logical divisions of an existing network that are defined by both class of IP address and the subnet mask. In the IT world, specifically in networking, there aren’t many aspects that are as much of an enigma as subnetting-the act of creating subnetworks.

Semi-Inground pools are like inground pools that add value to your home because they are substantial just like Inground Pools. Do not confuse Aboveground pools with Semi-Inground pools because they are not the same thing. Therefore, a typical aboveground pool adds very little value when you sell your home. Plus, the consistent movement of the pool may cause buckling of the pool walls. This may cause issues with the liner getting pinched under the wall and may tear the liner. In Winnipeg, because of our frost heave, Aboveground pools will shift up and down. This is much different than an ABOVEGROUND pool that just sits on the ground floats up and down with land heaving. After the panels are assembled, we then pour a CONCRETE FOOTING around and under the walls, so they are locked in and become a solid permanent installation. Then we set-up, level and bolt the steel wall panels together. After the excavation we install CONCRETE PILES under all our SEMI-INGROUND pools that make them incredibly strong and help prevent shifting and heaving. Depending on panel height, the finished pool height is about 1’ - 2’ above grade. We excavate the ground with a mini-excavator and the SEMI-INGROUND is sunken into the ground about 2’-3’. We offer our SEMI-INGROUND pools as flat bottoms, but you may upgrade to a deep end. ![]() You would choose a SEMI-INGROUND pool if you were wanting to have a top-quality pool but want to built your own wood or composite deck around it. SEMI-INGROUND pools start at $56,997 for a 12’ x 16’ OVAL and $68,807 for the 10’ x 20’ Modern Rectangle VOS. They are all custom ordered and do not come in pre-fab kits. The cost for a SEMI-INGROUND POOL is a little less than an INGROUND because we are not including a concrete deck. ![]() These are NOT aboveground pools dug into the ground. This makes them much stronger than a typical ABOVEGROUND pool that only use a one-piece thin corrugated wall. There are various depths of SEMI-INGROUND pools from 42” panels to 60” panels, very similar to an INGROUND pool. The multiple heavy panels come in various sizes ranging from 3’ to 8’ wide and are bolted together to from the shape of the pool. They use similar strong 14G galvanized steel panels like INGROUND pools. SEMI-INGROUND pools, which are sometimes referred to as Onground Pools, are basically INGROUND pools that are raised out of the ground. |
