An integral part of the Software Assessment Management efforts from Microsoft, the Microsoft Software Inventory Analyzer 5.1 is available for download accompanied by a range of resources designed to streamline usage. MSIA is a tool designed to permit customers to scan either a local machine or computers connected to a network in order to identify and produce a report containing a list of core Microsoft software products installed. In addition to MSIA, the company is also offering for download documentation containing a User Guide and a FAQ. According to the Redmond giant, MSIA is capable of putting together software inventories only for networks with a maximum of 250 computers.
“MSIA reports the results of the scan in three possible formats, based on the user’s selection: HTML, Excel, and Text. These reports contain details such as the names of all the installed Microsoft products, links to the list of computers scanned, links to the error log, and so on. In addition, the summary report enables users to enter corresponding license purchase information for all software detected in the scan,†Microsoft revealed. Read More»

Jason The Visual Round Trip Analyzer was initially an internal Microsoft tool, which the Redmond company is now offering as a free download. Designed as a webpage performance visualizer and analyzer, according to the software company, Visual Round Trip Analyzer runs on top of Network Monitor 3.2 and is set up to offer a comprehensive perspective over the download of a specific webpage. The Redmond giant indicated that VRTA comes with support for Windows Vista RTM and SP1, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003 SP1 and Windows Server 2008.

Excel’s PivotTable feature can handle this request, but you have to invoke it with an uncommon setting called Multiple Consolidation Ranges. This is only the second time I’ve needed that particular setting. First, let’s get all the required data into a single consolidation workbook. Rather than make copies, we’ll create links to the original data. Create a new workbook and insert a worksheet for each of the workbooks you want to consolidate. Click one worksheet tab, then Ctrl-Click the rest to select them all. Enter “Item” in cell A1 and “Source” in cell B1. Because the tabs are all selected, these entries will appear in every worksheet. Click a single tab to end the multiple selection.
Open the first of the source workbooks and highlight just the list of items. Copy it to the clipboard. Switch to the consolidation workbook and click in cell A2 of the corresponding worksheet. Read More»

Jason The same way you take care of your car,with its oil changes,tweaks and tune up you should take care of your pc.Your computer (specially your Operating System) need alot of care,it is constantly working by modifying files,sometimes those modifications cause errors which then your pc logs and starts to slow down your computer, same has with the registry when it gets cluttered and alot of other sections.These are some good free utilities I have found, I think they do a pretty good job but to tell you the truth I dont use any, I always say you can find freeware thats equally good to paywares if not better,it doesnt look like the case with this.
If you have any extra cash,I really would suggest you buy TuneUp Utilities,I use it on a daily basis and might post a review on it soon.
This is our review for the top free system maintenance tools: Read More»
