I. Disposal of the master disk

Install the system first (recommended FAT32 format), patch, install a WINRAR, optimize the system (crack the number of TCP connections, crack the UXTHEME file, close unnecessary services, close system restore, close hibernation, desktop cleaning wizard, close remote desktop, close automatic update, disable error reporting, and disable system file protection (recommended, You don't need DLLCACHE to save one step after finishing these tasks), forbidding WINDOWS roaming, disabling the ZIP function, reducing the number of scroll bars, turning on the numeric keypad, turning off the firewall reminder, and all kinds of acceleration without adding your own personalized information at last (welcome to use the screen-change information in the system properties-change, add OEM connection in the start menu, change the scroll bar interface for friends who can do it, and change the desktop).

2. Lose weight for the system

1, turn off system restore.

Open the control panel and double-click the system. Select System Restore in the system property panel, check Turn off System Restore on all drives, and then click OK.

The system restore function of WindowsXP takes up a lot of disk space and must be turned off to reduce the system size. After turning off System Restore, the contents of the system volume information directory in the root directory of the system partition will be emptied immediately, so you can also turn on this function after turning off System Restore.

2. Turn off system hibernation

Open the control panel, double-click Power Options, select Hibernation, uncheck the check box before Enable Hibernation, and then click OK. At this time, the page file hiberfil.sys in the root directory of disk C of the system partition will be automatically deleted.

The hibernation function of WindowsXP, like system restore, takes up a lot of disk space, and the hibernation function takes up the size of system partition and the space of physical memory.

3. Transfer the virtual memory page file (optional, because GHOST8.0 or later can automatically clear the virtual memory file).

Open the control panel, double-click "System", select "Advanced" in the system property panel, then click "Settings" in the performance box, select "Advanced" in the virtual memory box, select the current system partition C, then select "Custom Size", set the initial size and maximum value to "0", and then select the partition where the page file needs to be stored (such as D: etc.

The virtual memory page file Pagefile.sys is generally located in the root directory of the system partition, and the default setting size is 65438+ 0.5 times of physical memory. It is a stubborn hidden file that is difficult to delete, so it is best to transfer it to other partitions outside the system partition to reduce the volume of the system partition.

4, clean up the disk, delete the system and IE temporary files.

Run Disk Cleaner to delete temporary system files. ※

Start-Programs-Accessories-System Tools-Disk Cleanup-Select Drive-OK-Disk Cleanup-Select Delete File-OK.

Delete IE temporary files and history. ※

Open IE- Tools-Internet Options-General-Delete Cookies(I)- OK-Delete Files (f)- OK-Delete History (h)- OK-OK.

Delete recently used document records. ※

Start-Settings-Taskbar and [Start] Menu (t)-[ Start] Menu-[Start] Menu (s)- Customize (c)- Advanced-Clear List (c)- OK.

5. Use the dllCache backup tool to back up the DllCache directory file (DLL file) (if system file protection is turned off, this step can directly delete all files in the SYSTEM32\DLLCACHE folder, remember to display the system files and hidden files first).

This step must be performed after the system is packaged. To slim down, delete the following directories or files (delete directories without *): Optional.

C:\windows\$* (all directories start with $ sign, and patches are installed in reverse, about 70M).

C:\windows\*。 Log (not big, but I watched too much and was unhappy. )

C:\ windows \ PC Health Help Support Center, 30M

(Before deleting, please copy helpctr\binaries\msconfig.exe to the system32 directory. )

C:\windows\ime\chtime traditional input (unnecessary, many input methods support traditional input) 12M.

C:\windows\ime\imejp Japanese input 12M.

C:\windows\ime\imejp98 Japanese input 12M.

C:\windows\ime\imjp8_ 1 Japanese input 12M.

C: \ Windows \ installer \ *。 Some rubbish left by MSI after installing MSI program (long name directory cannot be deleted! )

C: \ Windows \ Downloaded Installations \ * MSI program left some garbage after installation.

C:\windows\resources\themes\* (It is recommended to keep Classic as the classic theme and Luna. The theme is XP theme 8M, and the ones you don't like are deleted).

C: \ Windows \ Srkhast Search Assistant (a puppy), 8M.

C:\ windows \ m Agent Microsoft Agent 3M

C: \ Windows \ Software Distribution \ Download \ * (temporary storage point for downloading patches) is about 60M.

C: \ Windows \ System32 \ Oobestarter (we all use boot-free XP, which is unnecessary) 8M.

C: \ Windows \ Web \ Wall * * * \ * wallpaper, just leave a nice bliss.bmp, or delete it all. 2M

C: \ program files \ windows nt \ pinball, deleted. Remember to delete the connection 5M from the start menu.

C:\program files\movie maker all deleted, 10M, garbage. Remember to delete the connection from the start menu.

C:\ program file \ messenger

Third, delete and change the system hardware driver (key! Must do)

1, uninstall the hardware driver.

(1) Uninstall the network adapter. (2) Uninstall the universal serial bus controller. (3) Uninstall the audio and video game controllers. (4) Unload the monitor. (5) Uninstall the graphics card (the purpose of uninstalling the graphics card is to prevent the blue screen from appearing when the ghost goes to another machine). If you are prompted to restart when uninstalling the hardware driver, select No to not start.

Note: first uninstall and change the driver inside: pay attention to the order! ! First uninstall the network card, universal serial bus controller, audio and video game controller, monitor and graphics card (it is normal that the graphics card still exists after uninstallation, not your operation problem). When uninstalling, right-click and click Uninstall. The system prompts to restart, press No to not start! ! (The purpose of uninstalling the graphics card is to prevent the blue screen phenomenon that may occur when installing GHOST on other computers. ) is generally uninstalled to the hardware that can be uninstalled and deleted.

2. (Press the key) Change the advanced configuration power interface * * * * CE (ACPI) to a standard PC.

Open Device Manager, right-click Advanced Configuration Power Inte * * * * CE (ACPI) under Calculator, select Change Driver, select Install from List or Designated Location (Advanced) in the pop-up Hardware Update Wizard dialog box, click Next, and then select Don't Search, I want to install the driver myself. Click Next, select "Standard PC", and then click Next, the hardware manager will automatically install the driver of the standard PC, and then the computer will prompt to restart, so choose No to not start, and finish the confirmation.

Description of change: If the new machine and the mother machine are not the same model of ACPI, your newly cloned machine will not be able to realize soft shutdown or system crash, and must be changed to a compatible standard PC mode. Generally, older computers only have standard pc options, but now most computers are equipped with advanced powerinte * * * * ce (acpi), and new computers after 2003 are acpi single-processor PCs.

3. (Press the key) Change the IDE ATA/ATAPI controller to "standard dual-channel PCI IDE controller".

Open device manager, right-click Intel (R) 8280 1babus main IDE controller under IDE ATA/ATAPI controller (note: different motherboards display differently), select Change Driver, select Install from list or specified location (advanced) in the pop-up Hardware Update Wizard dialog box, and click. Select "Don't search, I will choose to install the driver myself", click Next, select "Standard Dual-channel PCI IDE Controller", and then click Next, the hardware manager will automatically install the driver of the standard dual-channel PCI IDE controller, and then the computer will prompt to restart, and select No to not start, and complete the confirmation.

Description of change: This step is the main key step. If you don't do it, the system won't start when Ghost goes to another machine. Therefore, in order to adapt to all kinds of motherboards, IDE controller must be changed to "standard dual-channel PCI IDE controller".

4. Install the free sky GHOSTXP automatic packaging tool packaging system ~

1. This toolkit is based on LONGHORN mode power consumption judgment and SYSPREP (Microsoft's own packaging tool), that is, manual packaging can be realized automatically without using packaging tools.

2. This toolkit does not contain any LOGO, but it contains some registration information, but it can be changed at will ~

3. The toolkit integrates the commonly used SATA/RAID/SCIS drivers (extracting the SATA driver of ASR 1.3, thanks to Woodbird Hero here), which can automatically clear the useless SATA/RAID/SCIS registry information after the system is restored (thanks to ASRCLEAN of Climbing Hero here), and comes with a DLL backup tool (using the DLL backup tool of Autumn Forum, thanks for providing without LOGO).

4. When using the driver to decompress in advance, please compress the driver into a drivers.exe file and put it in the folder C:\SYSPREP. If the driver does not need to be decompressed in advance, please edit the batch file AllUsrRun.cmd under WINDOWS to delete the first line.

5. Please change full name = "Freesky" orgname = "Freesky technical forum" in SYSPREP. Save the INF file in the C:\SYSPREP folder to your own registered name.

6. Finally, run "Automatic Packaging". In the C:\SYSPREP folder to be packaged.

7. Run the DLLCACHE backup tool to back up the DLL file (optional).
