Microsoft frequently releases Windows 10 updates to keep it compatible with the new hardware and devices along with the required drivers. When you force the update on your PC, you may run into some errors including Blue Screen of Deaths during or after the installation.
A blue screen of death (BSOD) error indicates that Windows 10 has detected a system error that can damage/currupt the operating system and must shut down immediately. As a result, you are greeted with a blue screen with a sad emoji and a message that reads, “Your PC ran into a problem and needs to restart. We’re just collecting some error info, and then we’ll restart for you.” Here are the probable reasons for the BSOD to occur and their solutions.
In This Article
1) Insufficient space in system disk
Windows 10 requires 2 to 10 Gb of free space in your system disk for proper functioning. Installing a new driver or software generates several new permanent and temporary files that may cause the memory overflow forcing the Windows to enter into the INVALID_DATA_ACCESS_TRAP. This may also occur when the Windows is starting or shutting down simultaneously.
Insufficient space in system diskSolution: Deleting the temporary files or having software like CCleaner to keep the registry entries cleans and avoid the Error 0x00000004. You can delete the temp files by typing Run in Windows>type Temp in the box>press enter>delete all files from the temp folder.
2) Faulty device drivers
Outdated drivers can also turn out to be the reason behind the error. If the system drivers are not compatible anymore, you need to update them.
Solution: To update the system drivers, follow these steps:
Click on the ‘Windows’ icon
Search for ‘Device Manager’ and hit the enter key
Select the driver that needs to be updated
Right-click and choose the ‘update driver’ option
You should run Windows update every now and then too, so that latest drivers are installed automatically on your Windows 10 machine.
3) BIOS misconfiguration
When an incompatible version of BIOS is installed or the firmware gets currupt, the BIOS gets overclocked or misconfigured leading to random issues including BSODs. Sometimes, an outdated BIOS can also result in a Blue Screen of Death.
Solution: Configure the optimum boot order in the Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) or Basic Input/Output System (BIOS) firmware. Reset the clock speed, voltage settings, and BIOS memory options to their default settings. Check for BIOS update on the company website and update it as well.
4) Hard disk corruption
The Error 0x4 can also be caused by a broken hard disk or RAM corruption. The hard drive is an electro-mechanical device consisting of numerous memory indices. When a part of memory gets damaged. This occurs because the memory index the CPU wants to access is damaged, the CPU is not able to access the memory index forcing Windows to enter into the INVALID_DATA_ACCESS_TRAP.
Solution: You can verify the hardware corruption by any interface tool or by using the command chkdsk / f. Cleaning the RAM after removing it from the slot and reinstalling it also sometimes solves the problem.
5) Unidentified bug of Windows 10
Some viruses can also cause a Blue Screen of Death, especially those that spoil the master boot record (MBR). Whenever there is a possible threat to the NTFS file system from malware, the automatic mechanism of NTFS_FILE_SYSTEM (Error Code 0x00000024) shutdowns your computer to prevent further damage.
Unidentified bug of Windows 10Solution: Your anti-virus software should be up to date and should be able to scan the MBR and boot sector. Use trusted anti-virus software like Norton, BitDefender, Kaspersky, and McAfee to remove any infection on your computer.
6) Outdated Windows operating system
The chances of facing the blue screen error increase if you have pending updates in your Windows operating system.
Solution: To update the Windows operating system, follow these steps.
Click on the Windows icon
Go to the Settings
Select the Update & Security section
Click on Windows update>check for updates
7) Incorrect entries in the system’s registry
A Blue Screen with the error message REGISTRY_ERROR means that the registry found an Input-Output error while reading its files. The reasons may be hardware-software incompatibility or file system corruption.
Solution: Keeping the Windows operating system safe from almost all registry errors. You can also choose to troubleshoot the BSOD registry error in the Windows 10 settings. You can try to system restore and go to the last working point, in 9 out of 10 times this method works.

When you plug in your smartphone to an adapter, it lets you know the kind of connection it establishes. You may not always see that in your notification panel. This information exists in the developer options. To access this, you have to go to Settings> Developing Options> Select USB Configuration. In the list of choices that you see, choose the ‘Charging’ option.
Ensure Charge Mode is Enabled

A majority of smartphones run on lithium-ion batteries. These kinds of batteries naturally charge optimally when the temperature of the device moderate. If the temperature is extreme, not only the charging gets affected but also the battery life. The optimal charging temperature lies between 41 and 113F. Thus, removing the smartphone case will help lower the temperature-induced by charging.
Remove the Phone’s Case

WhatsApp is more than just a messaging application. Several people conduct their business on WhatsApp. While others use it to share their views, images, and files that have a direct and indirect influence on their lives. WhatsApp call is one of its features where you can connect online to a person having the same app. There are primarily two ways to record your WhatsApp incoming or outgoing calls. These are as follows.
In This Article
Method 1: Using another device – an easy way out!
Recording WhatsApp calls is straight-forward if you have a secondary smartphone. While making a call on WhatsApp, you just need to put your phone on speaker and record the WhatsApp calls using the sound recorder on another device. If your second smartphone does not have an in-built sound recorder, you can easily download it on the App Store.
Method 2: Record WhatsApp calls on the same phone using a third-party application
There are several applications available on the App Store that can record WhatsApp calls. Most of them offer a simple UI and get the job done with little effort in the following steps.
1) Open the Google Play Store, and search for the ‘Record WhatsApp calls’ and install an application with a high rating and downloads.
2) When you launch the app, you will be asked to provide it the permission to access your calls, contacts, storage, and microphone settings.
3) Follow the on-screen instructions and enable the app in the ‘Notification and Accessibility’ option in the system settings. As soon as you give permission, you’re ready to go. The app will automatically record all your Whatsapp calls without time-limit and mixing the contacts.
Record WhatsApp calls on the same phone using a third-party application
It should be noted that WhatsApp is an end-to-end messaging service. When you voluntarily allow a third-party app to get access to your contacts, it may breach your privacy. Although the third-party apps claim to only record the audio at your end of the call, you must still be vigilant and choose only a trusted application.

Hyperloop is an intended means of passenger and freight transportation. The terminology was first used to define an open source vactrain design published by a joint team from Tesla and SpaceX. Hyperloop is defined as a sealed tube or system of tubes having low air pressure allowing a pod to move through it free of air resistance or friction. The concept of utilising low-pressure or almost vacuum tubes as means of a transport system has a long history. However, it was entrepreneur Elon Musk who popularised the concept with his ‘Hyperloop Alpha’ research paper in 2013. And then came many.
In This Article
Why is Hyperloop different?
Hyperloop differs from the traditional rail in two ways. Firstly, the pods carrying passengers move through tubes from which most of the air has been evacuated to minimize friction. As a result, the pods could travel at a speed as high as 750 miles per hour. Secondly, instead of moving on wheels like a train or car, the pods are meant to float on air or employ magnetic levitation to minimize friction.
How much would a Hyperloop cost to build?
The LA to San Francisco Hyperloop envisioned by Elon Musk Envisaged is expected to cost around $6 billion. A major part of the cost of the project lies in constructing the tube network that includes the cost of the tube, pillars, vacuum pumps, and stations. The cost of the capsules was estimated at around $1.35m per piece; with 40 required for the service that would cost around $54m.
How much would a Hyperloop cost to build?
What will be the implementation challenges?
Although the concept of the hyperloop appears wonderful, it is evident that it would face several challenges in terms of construction, society, health, and the environment.
Cost: We can’t underestimate the cost of the technology and sophisticated tube system that is expected to be millions of dollars.
Technology: The manufacturing of the long vacuum tube shall need advanced technical skills that are expensive and risky to maintain.
Human Life: The limited space inside the train may pose risk to human life and health. The excessive G-force may cause nausea and hypertension.
Legal: The construction of tubes would demand huge land and property requiring several legal clearances and compensations to those whose lands will be acquired.
Environmental: The installation of the tubes would require space and thus causing a large number of trees and forests to be cut down, leading to loss of habitat and desertification.
What will be its impact on society?
The research on the possible benefits of the hyperloop project to society shows that the journey from London to Birmingham would take only nine minutes. Faster journeys will enhance job opportunities and will have a positive outcome on tourism and sustainability. Moreover, Hyperloop will improve the access to education as the distance of the educational institutions from home will not be a challenge anymore. Besides the time factor, Hyperloop will play an important role in solving the housing crisis. The cost of living in metropolitans like London and New York is pushing the vulnerable residents out due to economic instability. By making the movement to places around the country affordable, people will be more likely to live outside of the city.
According to Elon Musk, “Hyperloop would inconvenience landowners no more than having a telephone pole on their property”.
What will be its impact on society?
When will the first Hyperloops be available?
Several companies are competing against each other to turn the concept of Hyperloop into a functioning commercial system. Although the basic concept has existed for many years, Hyperloop technology is still under development as of now, the earliest hyperloop is expected to be up and running by 2030 but most services are expected to run even later since the testing of the technology is still in initial stages. The locations where Hyperloops will be established are still not known. However, many companies have planned out routes in the US, Europe, and elsewhere. Possible routes include New York to Washington DC, Pune to Mumbai, Kansas City to St Louis, Bratislava to Brno, and Vijaywada to Amaravati.
What will be the experience of a Hyperloop?
Critics of Hyperloop have suggested that traveling in the tube might not be a delightful experience owing to excessive G-force that may cause nausea. However, its supporters say that the journey of a hyperloop will feel just like traveling in an elevator or a passenger plane. The companies that are making the hyperloop claim that despite it being an extremely fast move vehicle, the systems they are building will accelerate with tolerable G-forces similar to taking off in a Boeing 747. Acceleration and deceleration processes will be gradual with tolerable G-forces and turbulence.
According to Elon Musk, “A beautiful landscape will be displayed in the cabin where each passenger will have access to their entertainment system”.
What will be the experience of a Hyperloop?
Will the Hyperloop ticket be expensive?
The LA to San Francisco version of the Hyperloop Envisaged by Elon Musk will offer tickets at a nominal $20, but Virgin Hyperloop One is doubtful on its plans. As of now, the cost will depend significantly on the route and the target is to make it affordable for everyone. The Hyperloop Transportation Technologies (HTT) said that it expects a profitable system with low ticket price projections. But like any new technology, critics do feel that this will be an expensive way of travel too.

A foldable smartphone seems to be a perfect answer to the question of accommodating bigger screens. Although the smartphones with dual screens were welcomed with mixed reviews. They could not achieve the place they deserve. However, in 2021, the companies are making up their mind to release the upgraded dual-screen smartphones (maybe at affordable rates).

Motorola is hoping to use the same strategy with the Motorola Razr 5G that Samsung did with the Galaxy Z Fold 2. The original Razr was a slim-looking smartphone but the build quality was not up to the mark. Moreover, the camera quality was disappointing, and the battery could not last more than 6 hours. Motorola seems to have addressed those issues with the new 5G version of the Razr, which introduces changes in the design such as a tapered chin, durable hinge and teardrop folded display. The exterior Quick View screen now carries gesture controls. The powerful Snapdragon 765G processor will improve the performance while adding 5G connectivity.
The new version of Moto Razr is expected to be out by the end of 2021.

If you use a desktop, you might feel the need for a webcam. Although webcams are not that expensive, you may still want to utilise your Canon DSLR as a webcam in case you have one. The Canon DSLR produces much better video quality than conventional webcams. So, using it as your main video chat partner might prove to be a good choice. Today we will guide you on how to use your Canon DSLR as a webcam with the help of a software called SparkoCam that enables you to convert your Canon camera into a standard webcam for YouTube streaming, video calls, and conferencing in the following steps. There is another way of using the Canon DSLR as a webcam, as the company now provides the webcam utility software for it to be used. We will talk about both here.
Using Canon EOS Webcam Utility (which is the easiest method):
Step 1: Go to https://www.usa.canon.com/internet/portal/us/home/support/self-help-center/eos-webcam-utility
Step 2: Choose Windows or MAC OS and download the on screen steps to install the software on your PC or MAC.
Step 3: Connect you compatible Canon DSLR with the supplied USB cable which comes in the DSLR box.
Step 4: Turn the dial on the Canon DSLR to video mode.
Step 5: In your Zoom or other video chat software select the Canon camera in settings. You are all done.
Canon EOS webcam utility does works with over 40 Canon DSLR’s in case you do not have a compatible one, you can try the SparkoCam software as below. SparkoCam also works with Nikon DSLR’s as well.

In This Article
Step 1: Installing the software
1) Download and install the SparkoCam software from its official website (https://sparkosoft.com/sparkocam-download)
2) Download the installation package and run SparkoCamInstaller.exe.
3) Follow the on-screen installation steps until the setup is complete.
Step 2: Connecting your Canon DSLR to PC using a USB
1) The first requirement is to plug-in your Canon DSLR camera’s USB cable into your PC.
2) Turn the Canon DSLR camera on
3) As soon as Windows recognises the camera, a notification will appear in a popup window regarding the newly connected device. However, you may not always see the notification even if the device is successfully connected. Note that if you already installed the software that comes packed with the camera, you may get the EOS Utility running. However, SparkoCam does not need EOS Utility to function properly, you may simply close it and proceed to the further steps.
Step 3: Launching the SparkoCam software
1) Open the ‘Device’ tab and choose the ‘Canon Camera’ checkbox to convert your Canon DSLR camera into a webcam. Whenever you connect only one camera to your PC, SparkoCam automatically picks it up. In other cases, you have to choose the right camera from the Camera list which is connected to the computer.
2) In your chat application like Skype or Google Meet, choose SparkoCam Virtual Webcam as the source web camera.
3) Now, you have to configure the target application to utilise SparkoCam as the video source. For instance, you can configure Skype in the ‘Options’ dialog by choosing SparkoCam Virtual Webcam from the Select webcam list.
You need to know that the Canon DSLR doesn’t have an inbuilt feature for utilising its microphones to capturing the audio. Thus, you must buy an external microphone to enable voice capturing in your chat application.

The COVID-19 pandemic led to a shortage of work and money for millions of people across the globe. As a result, they sought to numerous measures to get easy access to cash. Taking advantage of this compulsion, many mobile applications popped up calling themselves the savior, offering easy loans to people all over the world at almost no interest at all (to begin with). Apps like Cred also started lending money to people who are registered on its app. Read on to know why you should stay away from apps like these at all costs.

What are money lending apps?
Money lending apps are mobile applications run by a person, a group of people, or a company for dispensing easy loans to the users of these mobile applications. To attract customers, these apps advertise their easy process of lending with minimum verification. Although the customers may have a false sense of opportunity, this gives a chance to these apps to create a trap by hiding their details and the terms and conditions of the loan.
Why should you stay away from money lending apps?
Recently, three people including a Chinese national were detained concerning money lending apps fraud case in Telangana. Under the pretext of giving instant loans, many Chinese apps have extracted huge amounts of money that approximately add up to Rs 21 thousand crores.
In a recent study, Reuters found that at least 10 money lending apps on Play Store violated Google’s regulations on loan repayment lengths meant for protecting vulnerable borrowers. Moreover, most of them also breached the central bank rules framed to protect borrowers.
Google recently examined several money lending apps on the Play Store and removed some of them that broke its user safety policies. It had been observed that many apps had appeared online without being governed by any rules or regulations. The most common method of these apps is to bring people into a debt trap, interest payments, and late fees to siphon money. In contrast to this, genuine lenders require document verification like KTC, PAN, Aadhar, mobile, and address. Before getting a loan, the customer is required to sign a contract with the registered bank or NBFC and undergo a credit bureau. This is not the case with a fraudulent lending company running an app. This gives a chance to them to indulge in aggressive collections calls charging heavy penalties on those people who find difficulty in paying back the loan.
Why should you stay away from money lending apps?
If you are a victim of money lending apps, how can you file a complaint on National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal:
To file a cyberfraud complaint, you have to follow the underlying steps.
Note that while complaining, you must provide accurate information for quick action. You may also contact the local police in case of an emergency. The national police helpline number is 100.
If you are a victim of money lending apps, how can you file a complaint on National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal?
How can you evade fraudulent money lending apps?
1) You should check the credentials of the money lending apps and ensure if they have RBI registered NBFCs or certified partners for distributing the loans.
2) Before you download the application, visit the app’s website to ensure that it is a genuine incorporated entity having a valid certificate of registration.
3) Always check if the app demands access to sensitive data including contact, bank credentials, and other passwords.
4) You should verify the true cost of the loan before giving consent to the agreement so that there are no hidden charges.
5) Never forget to do some research about money lending apps and their promoters.
How can you evade fraudulent money lending apps?
Besides, India’s largest bank i.e. State Bank of India has also given some safety suggestions for its customers.
Check the terms and conditions of the offer.
Avoid clicking on suspicious links.
Check the authenticity of an app before downloading
Visit your bank’s website for all your financial needs.
It is worth noting that almost all banks in India keep sharing tips and with their customers regularly for safe and secure online banking as well as ATM transactions. They often caution you not to reveal your bank details to anyone even if he/she claims to be a bank employee.
The key to safe banking is vigilance. It is thus advised to keep unique internet banking passwords and not getting indulged in attractive loan offers advertised by money lending applications. 8 out of 10 times it is a trap and you will end up either losing your sensitive data, money or will be burdened with heavy hidden interest rates.

The smartphone has five cameras in total, two of which are dedicated to selfies. There’s also a powerful processor onboard and yes, it is a 5G smartphone. The reasons to buy Vivo V20 Pro 5G smartphone, priced at Rs 29,990, seem plenty. But how does it score in actual performance? Read the rest of our Vivo V20 Pro 5G review to find out:
In This Article
Vivo V20 Pro 5G design and display
Vivo V20 Pro 5G smartphone has a very beautiful and elegant looking design. There is no denying the fact that it does look like the Vivo V20, but is also a shorter and thinner. The handset has a plastic body and is available in Sunset Melody and Midnight Jazz colours. We got the latter for our review and it looked stunning. Thanks to the plastic body of Vivo V20 Pro 5G, and the fact that the company has kept it thinner than most other smartphones that are available today, the device is quite light to hold at 170 grams.
The back panel of the handset comes with matte finish and has a layer of Corning Gorilla Glass 5 that protects against fingerprint marks as well as scratches. But the most interesting thing about Vivo V20 Pro is that whenever light hits the back of the device, you would be able to see a pattern crated on it. It makes the smartphone stand out and look really very premium.
The back also has a Vivo 5G branding and the camera module that protrudes a bit because the device is so thin, but then, it’s very subtle and it’s not like it stands out or looks bad. The right edge of the smartphone has the Power and the Volume Rocker keys, while the SIM tray, speaker grille, microphone and the Type-C port are on the bottom edge. The top only has the secondary microphone. It is worth mentioning that the device cannot hold a microSD card.
Coming to the display, Vivo V20 Pro 5G smartphone comes with a 6.44-inch full-HD+ AMOLED screen that has Schott’s Xensation Up glass and comes with support for HDR. The colours were vibrant and rich and the images projected were sharp and clear. We spent hours watching shows on Netflix on the device and found it to be a visual treat. The good sound system made the experience even better.
There is a fingerprint scanner embedded in the screen and the device also has a notch on the top of the screen that houses two selfie cameras. We could live with it because of the good experience that the screen offered, but then there would be those who would have certain reservations about it. The sunlight readability of the display was decent too, while the colour consistency at different viewing angles was pretty good.
To sum it up, we would say that the design of Vivo V20 Pro 5G is really impressive and the display is easily among the good aspects of the smartphone too.
Vivo V20 Pro 5G performance and cameras
Before we start speaking about the performance, let’s take a minute to throw a light on the rest of the specifications of the Vivo V2 Pro 5G. The handset is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 765G processor and comes with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of internal storage. It runs Android 10 skinned with Funtouch OS 11 and houses a 4,000mAh battery. For imaging duties, there is a 64MP primary camera, an 8MP ultra-wide-angle lens that is also a macro camera and a 2MP monochrome lens. The device also comes with a 44MP+8MP selfie cameras. There are several customization options and extra features that have been added to the smartphone including a system-wide dark mode, changing animations, animated wallpapers, and more. Vivo V20 Pro 5G comes with some bloatware too and had apps like Amazon, PhonePe, Snapchat, Flipkart and Dailyhunt pre-installed in it.
Coming to the performance, Qualcomm‘s Snapdragon 765G chipset coupled with 8GB of RAM gave us a smooth experience. No matter how many apps we opened and switched between, the device did a good job at handling multi-tasking. We even playes several games on the device and it didn’t heat up even once even when we played a heavy-graphic game like Asphalt 9: Legends.
The 4,000mah battery of the smartphone easily lasts more than a day even with usage involving a couple of hours on Netflix or YouTube, listening to music, browsing through Instagram and more. We think that this is pretty good. If you use the 33W charger that ships with the handset, Vivo V20 Pro 5G charges up to 93% with it in just an hour, which is also a good speed according to us.
The call quality of the smartphone is good too and we faced no troubles making calls even from areas like elevators.
Finally, let’s talk about the cameras of Vivo V20 Pro 5G. As we mentioned earlier, the smartphone comes with five cameras in total – three on the back panel and two for selfies. The 64MP primary camera of the device comes with an f/1.89 aperture and clicks some amazing pictures. The quality of the photos taken is top-notch and even when we transferred them to our laptop to view them, they looked great. The colours were vibrant, but slightly more saturated as compared to the real object/scene we clicked. The AI used in the camera app of the device is very good. Whenever we got too close to an object, it automatically switched to the macro lens of the phone.
Clicked by the primary camera
Coming to the 8MP ultra wide angle sensor of the handset, it does get a lot more landscape in the lens, but then, the details do drop if you compare them to the images taken from the primary camera. When using the cameras in lowly-lit areas, the dedicated Night Mode on the device’s app works well in keeping the quality of the images up.
Clicked by the ultra-wide camera
The selfie cameras do a good job too. There is an ultra-wide camera for group selfies too. In well-lit areas, both the cameras clicked great pictures, but in lowly-lit places, we do recommend the Night-Mode for images to turn out nicely.
Besides this, we should also point out that the camera app of the smartphone comes with a number of good features including Portrait Mode, Live Photo, Slow-Mo, Time Lapse, AR stickers, and many filters for your pictures.
Verdict
At a price of Rs 29,990, Vivo V20 Pro 5G is a very good buy. There are hardly any cons in the smartphone and the number of reasons to buy are plenty. The design is beautiful, the display works well, the battery is lasting and the performance is smooth. The cameras also do a great job, although they could be more consistent in performance, especially in low-lit areas. But the Night Mode covers that too.
So there is no reason for us to say that you wouldn’t be happy if you buy the smartphone. One small thing that may be a problem for some is that the device cannot hold a microSD card. So if you’re someone who doesn’t find 128GB enough, then maybe you should consider something else to buy.
