How I resolved "Unable to access the computer ***. The error was: Invalid syntax" error

If you have recently installed Service Pack 1 in your existing Windows
7 box, chances are you might be getting this doom error. You see, I
can't really tell you why you are getting this error but Microsoft
should.

To keep this straight, I got this error because I installed service
pack 1 on my development system. Yeah service pack is good and I think
it exists to make things better. Just like Zedicus Zuul Zorander said
in the TV series "Legend of the seeker(s)", "The greatest harm comes
from our best intentions". I installed SP1 to improve my system but
instead of improving it, it poked my eye and made me blind for weeks.

Who would have thought that the problem that crippled my Sql server,
denied me administrative privilleges and many more important stuffs
had resulted from the SP1 I installed.
Thank the lord that I love keeping track of my system's health by
viewing event logs and knowing which software installation stabbed my
back and this time, it was sp1 for windows 7 because starting from the
date I installed it the problem started. I removed it without thinking
twice.

I am not saying service pack is bad, may be I would have resolved it
another way had waited a little longer and did more research, but just
like I said earlier, this is my development system and my current
projects depends on sql server so, I couldn't wait any longer.
Thanks for reading.

Pre-installed C++ Compiler in Kali Linux Kali Linux comes with a pre-installed C++ compiler called g++ . We will use this to write and compile a basic "Hello, World!" program. Step 1: Check if g++ is Installed Open your terminal and run the following command: g++ -v If the compiler is installed, you should see version details. If not, you will get an error message. Step 2: Create a C++ File In your terminal, type: nano MyCpp.cpp This will create a C++ file and open it in the Nano editor.

HOW TO MAKE A SIMPLE TEXT TO SPEECH(TTS) WINDOWS PROGRAM USING C# PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE.

This post is a beginner's guide on how to get started with speech programming in visual studio using c# (c_sharp) programming language. For those who don't know what a programming language is, in a nut shell, a programming language is simply a command based computer language used for instructing a computer to do a particular job. When I say job, I mean very complex job. Write the above definition in an exam and stand a chance of losing marks. The definition isn't all there is about what programming language is, so I suggest you make a good search to learn what programming language really is. Though, this article is for beginners but I will say "BEGINNERS ARE CLASSIFIED", am a beginner. If you are a beginner who hasn't tasted code in his or her life before, I suggest you go start something. A good learning source is "tutorial point", they taught me a lot. Now for you who have tasted code, you will need the following: Computer System running wind...

HOW TO APPLY FALLING TEXT EFFECT IN A CONSOLE PROGRAM WITH THREADING IN C#

"A thread is defined as the execution part of a program. Each thread defines a unique flow of control. If your application involves complicated and time consuming operations then it is often helpful to set different execution paths or threads, with each thread performing a particular job.", says the smart guys behind Tutorials Point.Well, our program is not going to be complicated and we are not going to be performing any time consuming task, we are rather going be creating a camouflage application that gives us the effect similar to what you get when you ping a site or an IP address with the "-t" option in cmd or the effect you see in movies like Blacklist, 24, Person Of Interest and the likes.Now let's stop the ranting and get started.We are going be building this application upon our existing code, one we started in the previous article "How to grammatically Change the background and foreground color of a console Application".Now open up the code in...
