How to Wipe Data off Palm Tungsten E2 [Erase Memory]

Palm Tungsten E2 Getting ready to sell that old PDA of yours for some quick cash? You might want to wipe your old media off that thing lest your Christmas list and questionable photos wind up in a stranger’s hands.

To completely erase the data on a PalmOne Tungsten E2 PDA: Hold the power button, then press the reset button (found, recesessed, on the back), and continue to hold the power button until the a prompt appears asking you to confirm the erase. Press up on the directional pad, and now you’ve got a fresh start with your Palm!

How to Fix Hibernation in Windows Vista

If the hibernation option is missing from your Vista power options, it’s possible the Hibernation file cleaner was removed from the computer. It seems this can be done using Window’s built in Disk Cleanup utility. Below are the steps to create a new Hibernation file cleaner and restore the hibernation option to the computer:

  1. Open the Start menu
  2. Type  cmd in the search field (this is the same as going to Start>Run, but I don’t believe “run” appears by default in Vista with the new start menu)
  3. Type powercfg -h on
  4. Press ENTER

If you did it correctly, there should be no output on the screen other than another prompt waiting for input. Check your power menu now to see if hibernation appears. Mine immediately appeared as the default option when clicking the power button on the start menu.
