How to replace your Blogger template with a personalized one

Before Blogger updated their platform in 2012, it simple for bloggers like me to replace their templates. You only need to download your preferred template from a free template site and upload it to Blogger's template uploader and instantly your blog looks like what you want. Today, the upload option is gone. So, how to replace your template now?

You can follow the steps below:

1. Go to Btemplates.com or any site that you could download a template for free. I like Btemplates.com because they lots of templates to choose from and some are adapted from Wordpress which are really good-looking and professional. The site also offers easy to download zip files of the template that you like. Just choose a template. Preview it if you want. Download it and then press SAVE to keep it on your computer.

2. Use WinRar or any extracting tool to extract the zip file in your computer. The zip file usually contains two folders, the template and one labeled for Mac OS X. I am not really using Mac, so I choose the one with the template XML document.

3. Don't open the XML document. Right click on it, then open with Notepad. Be sure to activate Word Wrap in Format. You can now see codes that looks like the codes in the HTML of your template.

How to fix Antec Kuhler H2O 620 Cooler Noise

My six-core rig is now running but I have problems with the AMD stock cooler. It seems that my motherboard’s (Gigabyte GA 890GPA-UD3H) CPU fan control push the fans speed to higher limits that it starts to make noise when the computer runs for a longer time or when it starts. I have already used the Easy Tune 6 utility from Gigabyte and though I controlled the speed of the fans, it will still run up to 6000 rpm when the computer boots. Therefore, I decided to find a quieter CPU cooler. I ran to the computer shop and the only CPU cooler that they have is the Antec Kuhler H2O 620. I was only thinking of an air cooler but the time I saw the box, I was indulge to it. Liquid cooling system is not really my first choice because it is more expensive. However, we the alarming noise I am experiencing on my new six-core PC, I have no reason not to buy it. I admit the installation manual and even the forums I read on the internet were a little bit confusing, but I still managed to instal...

How to fix notebook hard disk error (Neo Basic B3233)

Yesterday, my NEO Basic B3233 notebook crashed down and it would not boot anymore. My first diagnosis is overheating or it is just the brownout, which causes some electrical surges on the computer. I rested it for a while but when I boot it again, it says DISK ERROR. I would like to explore more on the causes of the error but I guess I do not have enough time for it. So, I'd better be starting my fix ASAP. Since it is a Hard Disk error, the problem is of course the hard disk and not the hardware, because it is not too old. My guess is the system inside it. Windows 7 might encounter an error that it is in tack anymore. Therefore, my best fix would be reformatting the hard disk and have a clean OS installation. I cannot use Windows 7 hard disk repair or error checking this time because it will not boot. The computer is useless this time so I need to remove the hard disk. How to remove a notebook hard drive? It is usually found under your notebook and it has screws ...

How To Install Steam OS Without UEFI motherboard

I will teach you how to install Steam OS into your motherboard that does not have UEFI bios. The default Steam OS installation requires UEFI bios or it will not work. I did some Googling and found a way to bypass that and everything works perfectly afterwards. It is just slightly more difficult but do not worry. For those who do not know what steam OS is, it is an operating system created by Valve. It is a Linux with Debian Weezy on top and can run Linux programs if you want to.
