In order to achieve this goal, we mainly start from four aspects:
1, reducing disk space occupation.
2. Terminate infrequently used system services.
3. Security issues
4. Other skills
First, do you really want to activate XP? No. . Exactly, do you want to be able to upgrade on the ms site? If the answer is yes, let's discuss the installation first. At present, I recommend the popular versions of V4, V5 and V6, especially V5 and V6. There was a serial number problem during installation. I suggest you calculate it on the computer first, and then install it with this serial number. Usually XP installed in this way can be updated at the MS site for free.
It doesn't matter if you have installed XP, but the serial number you use is the one that everyone in the room uses everywhere. We will say later that repackaging with sysrep will solve the problem of serial number replacement.
I assume that you have installed XP, come on baby ~ ~
First, slimming action
1, after all kinds of software and hardware are installed properly, XP rarely needs to update files. Delete the system backup file: Start → Run → sfc.exe/Purge Cache nearly 3xxM.
2. Delete the driver.cab file in the driver backup: %windows%driver cachei386 directory, usually this file is 76M.
3. I don't have the habit of reading help, so it is a kind of harm for me to put things in the %windows%help directory, hehe. . . Kill them all, nearly 4xM.
4. Later, after upgrading, you will find that %windows% has many directories like $ ntuninstallq311889 $. Kill them all, 1x-3xM.
5. There happens to be win2000/server in the hard disk. By the way, point all the pagefile.sys files to one place: control panel → system → performance → advanced → virtual memory → change. Note that the key "Settings" will take effect. 6. Uninstall uncommon components: modify %windows%infsysoc.inf with Notepad, use the find/replace function, enter, hide and replace all in the find box. In this way, all the "hiding" is removed. After saving the disk, run "Add-Remove Program", and you will see many more options in "Add/Remove Windows Components". Delete games, code watches and other unused things.
7, h Except for the input method that is not used under windowsime, 8xM. I reinstalled my zrm input method, hehe.
8. If the space is really tight, enabling the compression function of NTFS will also use 2x% less space, but I didn't do it.
9. Turning off system restore is a disaster for people like me who often download test software. Right-click My Computer on the desktop, select Properties, find System Restore, and select Turn off System Restore on all drives. Hehe, it can save space again.
10, there are several files, which are quite large and useless. . . . Forgot the name: (,the newly installed system can use the search function to find files larger than 50M, and you should be able to find them.
If you can follow the above process, your original XP of 1.4G can be completely reduced to below 800.
Second, accelerate the plan.
WinXP startup will have many functions that affect the speed. Although ms says it has been optimized, there are still many customization places for us. I usually do this.
1, modify the run key of the registry and cancel those things that are not commonly used, such as Windows Messenger. Enable Registry Manager: Start → Run →Regedit→ Find the key value of "HKEY _ current _ user software Microsoft Windows current version running MSGS"/background, right click → Delete, the world is much quieter, and kill all those cfmon by the way.
2. Modify the registry to reduce the waiting time of pre-reading and progress bar. The effect is that the progress bar runs once and then enters the login screen. Start → Run →regedit starts the Registry Editor. Look up the memory management priority parameter of HKEY _ local _ machine system's current control session manager, and change its value to "1" with a key. In addition, friends who don't change their hardware often can set the device type above the bus device to none in the system properties.
3. Turn off the special effects in the system properties, which is a simple and effective acceleration method. Click Start → Control Panel → System → Advanced → Performance → Settings → In the visual effect, adjust the settings to the best performance → OK. In this way, the desktop will be very similar to win2000. I still like the blue window of XP, so I put a check on "Use visual styles on windows and buttons" so that I can see the beautiful blue interface and speed up.
4. I use Windows commadner+Winrar to manage files. The ZIP support of Win XP is even worse for me, because no matter whether I need it or not, the boot system will open a zip support, and the already idle system resources will be less. Click Start → Run, type "REGSVR32/U zipfldr.dll" in the middle of double quotation marks, and then press enter to confirm. The sign of success is that a prompt window appears, and the content is roughly as follows: Dll UnrgisterServer in zipfldr.dll is successful.
5. It is said that a system of XP serves Qos, and this scheduling takes up a certain amount of network bandwidth, which is unbearable for a penniless person like me. The way to get rid of it is: start menu → run → type gpedit.msc, and the group policy window will appear, expand management template → network, expand QoS packet scheduler, and right-click in the right window to limit the reserved bandwidth. After completing and applying the above modifications, users can see the "QoS Packet Scheduler" in the General Properties tab of the Network Connection Properties dialog box. It means that the modification is successful, otherwise it means that the modification has failed. By the way, kill (uninstall) the Qos protocol in the network properties.
5. It is said that a system of XP serves Qos, and this scheduling takes up a certain amount of network bandwidth, which is unbearable for a penniless person like me.

It means that the modification is successful, otherwise it means that the modification has failed. By the way, kill (uninstall) the Qos protocol in the network properties.
6. Enjoy a quick browse of the LAN.
Usually, when connecting to other computers, Windows XP will comprehensively check all scheduled tasks on other computers. This check will make you wait for 30 seconds or more. The way to get rid of it is to start → run →Regedit→ find HKEY _ local _ machinesoftwaremicrosoftWindows current version xplorerModeComputerNAMeSpace in the registry. Under this key value, there will be a key d6277990-4c6a-11cf-8d87-00a0060f5bf {}. After deleting and restarting the computer, Windows XP no longer checks the scheduled tasks, hoho ~ ~, and the speed is obviously improved!
7. Close the debugger, Dr. Watson.
It seems that I haven't used this thing since the win' 90s. I can cancel it like this: open the book table, find the subkey branch of HKEY _ local _ MachinofwareMicrosoft Windows ntcurrentversionaedebug, double-click the Auto key name below it, change its "numerical data" to 0, and finally press F5 to refresh the setting to take effect, thus canceling its operation. Following this idea, we can cancel all options with debugging function, such as memory.dmp that appears when the screen is blue, and "My computer → Properties → Advanced → Settings → Write debugging information → Do not select" and so on.
8. List of services I terminated and related explanations.
1) Alarm error alarm
2) automatic update windows automatic update
3) Background intelligent transmission service Microsoft claims to use idle network bandwidth to transmit data.
4) I don't think scrapbooks and remote computers should be used to enjoy the contents of the clipboard.
What did ComputerBrowser say to maintain the network update list?
6)DHCP client I don't need this thing
7) The distributed link tracking client saves information such as local area network connection update, and occasionally uses the local area network, occupying about 4M of memory.
8) Coordinate xxx of distributed transaction coordinator, similar to the above.
9)DNS client I don't need this thing.
10) Error Reporting Service Error Reporting
1 1) event log system records
12) fast user switching compatibility user switching
13) help and support help
14) Human-computer interface devices are said to be intelligent devices.
15) the imapicd-burning com service occasionally does not use this CD for engraving.
16) index service index, what is an index?
17) Internet connection firewall
18)IPSEC service I don't understand this. Ask a quack if you want to know.
19) Logical Disk Manager Management Service Configuration Disk
20)messenger seems to use this function for things like network sending.
2 1) ms software volume shadow copy provider volume copy backup
22) network login I don't want hackers to log in remotely, turn it off!
23) netmeeting Remote Desktop Sharing I don't use netmeeting.
24) Network DDE dynamic data exchange and transmission
25) The network DDE DSDM is similar to the above.
26) Network location awareness is turned off, and my machine cannot be used for * * *.
27) NTLM security support provider -telnet Hehe, turn it off!
28) Performance logs and alerts will record system status or send warnings.
29) Portable media serial number is closed!
30)Print Spooler printer, but unfortunately my computer is not connected to print ~
3 1) QoS RSVP is off!
32) Remote Desktop Help Session Manager Remote Help Service
33) Remote procedure call locator manages RPC
34) Remote Registry Remote Management Registry.
35) Removable storage
36) Routing and Remote Access I just disabled it.
37) Security Account Manager My system is just a client system without iis.
38) Smart card
39) Smart Card Assistant is closed! ! !
40)SSDP discovery service I don't need this.
4 1) system event notification If it is a server, it must be recorded.
42) System Restore Service System Restore Service
43) Task Scheduler windows Scheduling Service
44) telephone dialing service, can't you dial without dialing?
45) Remote login
46) terminal service terminal service
47) UPS, I don't have it.
48) The universal plug and play device host is too advanced to be used.
49) Files can also be transferred when the upload manager is closed.
50) shadow copy is backup again, dizzy.
5 1)webclient has never been used.
52)Windows Installer MSI service, I have turned it off.
53) Digital equipment for 53)windows image acquisition (WIA).
54) Windows Management Instrumentation driver extension is closed.
55)windows Time Service
56) Wireless zero configuration wireless network, occasionally not used.
57)WMI perfram adapter is closed!
Some services here were shut down at the beginning, but I forgot to list all the closed services in the current system. You should handle it according to your own situation.
Third, am I safe?
Many things aside, the basic enjoyment of * * * still has to pass:
Modify the registry to the following two styles:
Remove * * * enjoyment
Guard against IPC default * * *
By default, after installation, Windows XP allows any user to obtain all accounts and * * * sharing lists of the system through IPC$ $. Originally, it was designed to facilitate LAN users to enjoy resources and files, but any remote user can use this empty connection to obtain your user list. Hackers use this function to find the user list of the system and use some dictionary tools to attack the system. This is a popular IPC attack on the Internet.
To prevent IPC attacks, we should start with the default configuration of the system, and we can make up for the loopholes by modifying the registry:
Step 1: Set the restricted anonymity item controlled by the current control setting of HKEY _ Local _ Machine System to "1", and prohibit empty users from connecting.
Step 2: Open the current control setting service Lanmanserver parameter item of HKEY local machine system in the registry.
For the server, add the key value "AutoShareServer" of type "REG_DWORD" and value "0".
For the client, add the key value "AutoShareWks" of type "REG_DWORD" and value "0".
——————————————————————
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY _ Local _ Machine System Current Control Settings Control]
" restrict anonymous " = dword:0000000 1
——————————————————————
Or save the above two as. REG files, and then double-click Import.
By the way, block the shameless 372 1 and add it to the hosts file:
127 . 0 . 0 . 1 cnsmin . 372 1 . com
127.0.0. 1
Fourth, other skills.
1. The Add Copy to .../Move to ... function moves to the right mouse button.
—————————————————————
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY _ Local _ Machine Software Class Sallfilesystem Objectsshellex] [HKEY _ Local _ Machine Software Class Sallfilesystem Objectsshellextmenuhandlers] [HKEY _ Local _ Machine Software Class Sallfilesystem Objectsshellextextmenuhandlers copied to]
@ = " c2fbb 630-297 1- 1 1d 1-a 18C-00c 04 FD 75d 13 { } "[HKEY _ LOCAL _ machinesoftwareclassesallfilesystemobjectsshellexcontextmenuhandlers move To]
@ = " c2fbb 63 1-297 1- 1 1d 1-a 18C-00 c 04 FD 75d 13 { } "
————————————————————————
Save the above as an add.reg file, and then double-click Import.
2. Error in closing the report, KAO! This thing makes me look like a free tester of Microsoft: click Control Panel-> System-> Advanced-> Lower right corner-> Error Reporting-> Disable Error Reporting-> OK!
3. Ungroup display: right-click the blank area of the taskbar and select Properties from the pop-up menu. In the pop-up window, uncheck "Group similar taskbar buttons" and confirm.
4. Retrieve the classic login window. Although the default login interface of WinXP is beautiful, if you want to log in with an unlisted user, you will find that there is no way to start. The way to change back to the classic window is to click Start → Control Panel → User Account → Change the login or logout mode of users → Cancel using the check mark in front of the welcome screen, and finally click the application options.
5. Set shortcut keys for your most commonly used input method: click Start → Control Panel → Regional and Language Options → Select Language → Details → Key Settings to find your own input method, and click Change Key Order → Select shortcut keys here.
6. When the computer is turned off, the unresponsive task will automatically end. The key value of "AugoEndTasks" in the registry: HKEY _ Current _ User Control Panel Desktop changed to "1".
7. Turn off automatic update: right-click my computer, click Properties, click automatic update, and then select Turn off automatic update in the notification settings column. I will update my computer manually.
8. Reduce the waiting time for scanning the startup disk, start → run, and type "chkntfs/t:0".
Then connect to the ms site and upgrade once, even if the optimization is basically completed. For XP, you can use many internal commands to view optimizations. For example, tasklist.exe/SVC can see the actual usage of system services.
Optimizing a system is very troublesome. So we save it and use Ghost to generate a. GHO file so that we can show it to others. Before Ghost, you must do one thing, clear the system hardware, registration and other information, otherwise cloning to different computers will not be able to start. Look for the sysprep.exe file in the Deploy.cab of the Winxp installation disk.
Execute sysprep.exe and select "repackage". You can choose "activate in advance" in the mark below, or you can choose whether to shut down or restart after packaging is completed. After the package is completed, we use GHOst to start from the system disk and use Ghost to generate the backup. Gho mirror, backup complete!
After executing the package and restarting, XP will let us enter the serial number. The method of modifying the serial number mentioned at the beginning of this article is like this.

XP Operating System Ten Questions and Ten Answers
2005-06- 16
When we use the Windows operating system, we often encounter problems of one kind or another. Some of these problems are caused by us, and some are inherent defects of the system. Here, the author makes a simple answer to some questions about Windows operating system raised by online readers, hoping to help you when using the operating system.
Delete system error report
I have a computer with Windows XP installed. Recently, a project named "dumpprep 0-k" was found in msconfig startup. What does it do? How can I delete it?
The function of this startup item is to report errors to Microsoft. When you use Windows XP or 2003, when you encounter illegal operations, the system will always ask you whether to send an error report to Microsoft so that Microsoft can solve the problem. Actually, there is no harm, but if you want to turn it off, you can go to the control panel, select System →→→→→→→ Error Reporting, and select the "Disable Error Reporting" option to cancel error reporting, so that the corresponding items in msconfig startup will disappear automatically.
Turn off XP automatic restart function
Although Windows XP is an excellent operating system, it sometimes loses its temper, such as automatic restart, which is an annoying fault that many people have encountered. Because by default, Windows XP will automatically restart when the system or program stops responding and other serious failures occur. To prevent automatic restart in this case, you can turn off this function. The method is as follows:
Open the control panel, select Performance and Maintenance → System in classification view, and open the system properties dialog box. Click the Advanced tab, and under Startup and Recovery, click the Settings button. In case of system failure, clear the √ in front of the automatic restart check box. Click OK to exit the dialog box.
Note: You must log in as an administrator or a member of the Administrators group to complete this procedure.
After the ghost made a mistake.
I used Ghost for the first time today. I wanted to back up the system, but I accidentally made a replacement partition and replaced all the contents on disk D with those on disk C! The contents of the original D disk are all gone! I collected this for a long time before I got it. Is there any way to recover?
Ghost rewriting partition is to rewrite the data content on the hard disk sector. It's not like deleting a file, just marking it as unnecessary and then waiting for the new content to be overwritten. We can use professional recovery software to recover data before any new content is overwritten. However, after using Ghost to cover the partition, that method will not work. Take the hard disk to a professional hard disk data recovery office and see if it can be saved.
Can't * * enjoy partition.
In Windows XP SP2, when you enter the partition properties window to enjoy the partition, a prompt "This is the default * * * enjoyment, and you cannot set security for * * * *" will pop up. Since this is the default resource, why can't I see it in my online neighborhood? Why not set the function of "* * * enjoyment and safety"? How to solve it?
"Default * * * enjoyment" is a service specially designed for network administrators to manage the system. By default, all partitions are in the default * * * enjoyment state. Because partition is already the highest resource storage mode in the system, for the sake of safety, the default * * * will not appear in online neighbors. As for it, we can simply understand it as the conflict between the default * * * enjoyment state and the manual * * * enjoyment state.
There are many ways to solve the problem that the function of "* * * enjoyment and safety" is not allowed to be set. If you can clear the default status of * * *, the specific operation is as follows: create a new text file, and then enter the following contents in it. After saving the file, please change the suffix name of the file to reg. Next, please double-click this registry file. When the information registration prompt is completed, please restart the computer for the operation to take effect.
Windows registry editor version 5.00 [HKEY _ local _ machine \ system \ currentcontrolset \ services \ lanmanserver \ parameters]
" AutoShareServer " = dword:00000000
" AutoSharewks"=dword:00000000
After restarting the computer, you can find that the default state enjoyed by * * * is gone, and then you can manually add partition resources.
What is the Thumbs.db file?
Recently, I found that some folders contain the file Thumbs.db. Later, I gradually found that it usually only appears in folders with pictures. The more pictures there are, the bigger it will become. Is it a virus? How to delete it?
This is a cache file generated by viewing thumbnails. You must have viewed the image file as a thumbnail, so this file appears. This is a normal manifestation, not a virus. If you don't want it to appear, you can go to the control panel and open it? Folder options? →? Opinion? Select the "Don't cache thumbnails" option in the advanced settings. In addition, if "Hide protected operating system files (recommended)" and "Don't show hidden files and folders" are selected, you can't see the Thumbs.db file, but it just hides it and still exists in essence.
DDRAW error
After reinstalling the system, I found that many games can't be played, even Flash can't be opened. System prompt: There is an error in the system file, which is required. Cannot find the dll file DDRAW.Dll file. How should I recover?
Obviously, the fault is caused by the error or loss of DDRAW.Dll file, the accelerator of DDRAW, which is an important part of DirectX, and the game can run normally only by relying on it. So we can usually solve the problem by reinstalling DirectX.
Lossless conversion of NTFS to FAT32
The system I installed is Windows 2000, and the C disk is in NTFS file format. Because this format has caused a lot of inconvenience, I want to convert it to FAT32 format. Excuse me, how to convert the file format without destroying the contents of disk C.
Before conversion, it is recommended that you back up the important contents of drive C to other disks, and then use PartitionMagic For DOS for conversion (the reason why the Chinese version of For Windows is not used here is that files are often lost and the Chinese directory is wrong when using this version for conversion). In the process of conversion, we must ensure that there will be no accidents such as power failure, otherwise it will be miserable, hehe.
Quickly view the services that the system has started.
In Windows 2000/XP/2003, to quickly view the services that the system has started, you can directly enter "net start" in the command prompt window, but this command only lists the service names. If you want to know the details of the started service items, you can enter "services.msc" in the run box and press enter to open the "Services" window, and double-click the "Status" column on the right side of the window, so that the started services will be ranked first, and you can see the details of the services through the "Description" column.
How does NTFS file format format C disk?
1. Because the NTFS file system FORMAT can't be recognized by DOS and Windows 9x, you can't use commands such as Format and DELTREE to delete and uninstall Windows 2000. You can delete Windows 2000 by starting the Windows 98 startup disk, running the FDISK.EXE tool software, deleting the NTFS main partition of the C disk, and then re-dividing the area.
2. Use the installation startup disk of Windows 2000 (it can be made by running BOOTDISK|MAKEBOOT. Or start the Windows 2000 installation CD directly from the CD-ROM drive, delete the NTFS main partition in its related options, and then rebuild the new partition.
3. In addition, there is another way. That is to say, before upgrading and installing Windows 98, you can use Norton ghost to make the contents of drive C into a Gho image file and back it up to drive D. After upgrading and installing Windows 2000, when you want to uninstall it, you can run Norton ghost directly under MS-DOS, and then overwrite drive C with the previously backed-up Gho image file, and Ghost will automatically and quickly return to the state of Windows 98 before backup.
When the system is restored, what is the reason for the failure of recovery?
The loss of restore point has little to do with the Windows XP operating system itself, but more to do with our mistakes or negligence in operation. Then let's analyze the main reasons for the loss of recovery points:
1. System restore function is turned off.
Some friends may mistakenly think that I can turn off the system restore function by creating a restore point at a certain time, so I don't have to always create a restore point to save hard disk space. However, if we manually turn off the system recovery function of Windows XP, all the restore points you created before will be deleted, and you won't find any restore points. If you want to use the system restore function, you can't turn it off.
2. The partition space is insufficient
Many friends always install software in the default path, which often makes the system partition occupy a lot of space. Because of this, it will also cause the system restore function of Windows XP to stop working and stop monitoring the system. At this point, the system will delete all restore points to free partition space, and no restore points will be found. Even if the partition space is not enough to stop the "Restore" function, the system will delete some previous restore points to free up space, and then we will find that some restore points cannot be found. Therefore, when installing software, we should not always follow the default path, but ensure that the system partition has enough hard disk space to realize the restore function. When we receive a warning that there is not enough disk space, we should be ready to release partition space.
3. Use the "Disk Cleanup" program carefully.
When we usually use Windows XP's "Disk Cleanup" program to clean useless data on the hard disk, we should be careful not to use the "Clean Up" function in "System Restore" under the "Other Options" tab. If you use this function, all restore points will be deleted.

Solve the problem that XP system networks cannot access each other.
2005-07-08
I believe many people have the same experience as the author. All the settings of the network composed of WIN XP are exactly the same as those of WIN 2000, but there is still one situation that is completely inaccessible. I think this is mainly because the security settings of XP are different from those of 2000. In view of this problem, the author looked up some information on the Internet and made corresponding tests on various common solutions provided on the Internet. Now I'm going to introduce it to you. I hope it will be helpful to netizens who encounter this problem, and please continue to give advice from experts. Part of the content is taken from the internet, and the source will not be indicated one by one.
First of all, we don't consider physical connection and other issues here, just talk about strategy. In addition, please install the corresponding protocol and set the IP address correctly, and try to set the computer in a workgroup with the IP address of the same network segment.
Secondly, there are many descriptions of the problem on the Internet, so I won't go into details here. When there is a problem with * * * entertainment and access, please consider the following steps:
1. Check whether the guest account is opened.
XP doesn't open the guest account by default, so please enable the guest account to let others browse your computer. At the same time, for the sake of safety, please set a password or corresponding permissions for the guests. Of course, you can also set a user name and password for each machine to facilitate mutual access between computers.
2. Check whether guest users are denied access to this computer from the network.
When you open the guest account but still can't access it at all, please check whether the setting is to deny the guest access to the computer from the network, because XP does not allow the guest to log in from the network by default, so even if you open the guest, you can't access it. When the system Guest user opens, cancel the restriction on the Guest account, click Start → Run, and enter GPEDIT. In the running dialog box, MSC opens the Group Policy Editor, and then selects Computer Configuration →Windows Settings → Security Settings → Local Policy → User Rights Assignment, and then double-clicks.
