Windows
Vista still has a lot of problems, let's take a look at Windows
Vista, debugging faults and recovery is very simple, even if it is An inexperienced user can easily deal with common startup failures.
First, the boot sector destruction of the system partition
The boot sector is destroyed, the system will not start properly, in Windows
2000/XP, you also need to enter the recovery console, with the help of fixmbr (fixed Master boot record) or fixboot (fix boot sector) command.
And under Windows
Vista, the same method is used to let the system automatically detect the startup failure, and Windows
Vista can live up to expectations, and it is easy to find the crux of the problem and automatically use the BCDMD command to fix it.
If there is no system startup failure, just want to test the "intelligence" of Windows
Vista, then Windows
Vista will politely and firmly say that the startup fix cannot detect the problem.
From the performance of the startup recovery function, Windows
Vista is undoubtedly reassuring. It is commendable that the system does not need us to have the ability to judge the faults of the fault, but to hand over all the work to Windows
Vianet itself, which should be affirmed.
Second, Vista wallpaper interpolation solution
Although this may not be the point to locate it, but it is indeed a flaw, and exists in Vista RC2. When using images as desktop wallpapers, Windows
Vista will be responsible for maintaining the image aspect ratio, but when compared to Windows
XP, when the image is stretched to fit the screen resolution, Vista will not The image is interpolated so that aliasing occurs. In the next two figures, the left image is an example proof of the problem, which clearly lacks interpolation (also known as the jagged edge); it appears smoother.
Vista wallpaper interpolation problem
Sawtooth is caused by the lack of image interpolation. The so-called image interpolation is a process of image data reproduction - it reproduces an image data with high resolution from the original image.
In Vista, JPEG interpolation via the desktop control panel is not performed correctly. One of the most immediate results is that when you stretch a picture with a different screen resolution as a wallpaper, an undesired visual effect will appear. This shortcoming seems to only appear on JPEG images, while BMP images are able to accept correct interpolation from the control panel.
The "Set as desktop background" feature can solve this problem. The "Set as desktop background" feature takes advantage of the PIX engine used by the Windows
Photo Gallery program. PIX supports image interpolation, and when you set a picture as a wallpaper, you can use it well. As for why the Windows
Photo Gallery program does not use image interpolation for photos when zooming in on the image, this may be categorized under Microsoft's alternative design.
three, Windows
Vista Sidebar weather fault
Chinese version of Vista system "weather" gadget can not use reason has confirmed not because the system created by language, but because of the locale cause.
1. Open Control Panel > Clock, Language & Regions > Regional and Language Options.
Set "Current Format" to "English (United States)"
Then go to "Location" and set "Current Location" to "United States"
Then go to "Manage" and click "Change System" Regional Settings, set to English (United States)
After restarting your computer, the Weather widget is ready to use.
2, click the setting button in the upper right corner of the weather widget, use the English or Hanyu Pinyin to enter the name of the city you want to find in the "Current Location" text box. For example, Beijing can enter "beijing" or "peking", Urumqi You can type "wulumuqi" or "urumqi" and press Enter to find the city you want.
3, Note: After the above area is set to the United States, the system number /currency /time /date and so on will be displayed in English, and will cause non-Unicode programs (QQ, etc.) can not display Chinese characters.
You can click "Customize this format" in the regional and language options to reset the number /currency /time /date according to Chinese habits.
Fourth, the boot manager lost the fault
If the boot manager bootmgr in the root directory of the C drive is damaged or lost, the system will prompt to find the operating system when starting the computer, which is similar to Windows
2000 /XP ntldr file is missing.
Under Windows
2000/XP, to solve this type of failure, you first need to know that the cause of the failure is that the boot manager is lost, then enter the recovery console, and use the expand command at the command prompt to install the ntldr in the installation CD. Extract the file copy to the root directory of the C drive.
In Windows
Vista is very simple, we don't need to know what is causing the system to fail to start, just follow the steps below:
Vista installation CD to boot the system into the "System Recovery Options" and click on "Start Repair".
(2) The system searches for the cause of the startup failure in order according to the set order. In the background of the system, the startup recovery checker will automatically update the Windows
(if the patch fails, it may also cause startup failure), system disk, disk error, disk metadata, target operating system, startup log, etc. test analysis.
(3) If the system finds the cause of the startup failure and repairs it, it will enter a dialog box prompting that it has found and tried to fix the problem.
(4) Windows
Vista will not display the cause of the fault by default. Click the “Finish” button to restart the computer to complete the recovery.
If you need to see the cause of the failure, you can click "Click here for details on diagnosis and repair" on this dialog. On the dialog that opens, we can see that the root cause found is that the Boot Manager is missing and the required file repair tool has been successfully completed.
five shots fault
under Vista using the Vista operating system some time after the picture will be shot the video, this is an old problem, mainly due to the driver caused. Since Vista is still in the testing phase, the drivers for each hardware under Vista are not perfect, and some have compatibility issues. So it will cause a variety of problems. This problem needs to wait for the hardware vendor to release the driver under the new Vista to solve.
Sixth, solve the problem of Wins under Win Vista
Drive letter confusion is Microsoft's old problem. Microsoft's Windows
installation CD has always been in its own program to confirm the drive letter of the hard disk partition, but this time Vista is more aggressive. When booting from the CD, the drive letter of the partition to which it is installed is forcibly changed to C. The following other drive letters are also arranged according to the previous Microsoft Windows installation convention.
The Vista drive is in a mess, so I have to adjust it and install it again. The method is to restore the wrong drive letter to the previous look in Vista. For example, in the previous case, it should be restored to: C: -> Z: -> F: , D: -> C: , Then restart Vista, of course, when the drive is restored, it will prompt a lot of errors, and neither Explorer nor Computer can browse. At this time, you can only use the "Win+R" shortcut to start the "Run" box to confirm that the drive letter has been restored to the original normal state. Then directly type Setup.exe under your Vista installation CD (or Vista installation ISO virtual drive). For example, your CD-ROM drive letter is X:, put the installation CD into it. Run X:\\Setup.exe in the Run to run the Vista installation. This way, when the drive is upgraded or the new custom installation is performed directly, the drive letter is normal, and the installation program in the installation CD will not recognize and arbitrarily make claims. Of course, if some hardware is not standard and incompatible, it may not be upgraded. Then the new installation, the old Vista will be automatically backed up to a Windows
.old directory by the installer. Just you must install it under this existing Vista, otherwise you will start the installation from the CD-ROM drive, the drive letter will still be confused. Because the drive letter in your existing Vista has been adjusted, the installer will refer to the original correct drive letter when doing an upgrade or a new installation under it. However, it is annoying enough. Even if the installation is done twice, the drive letter is correct, but the identification of the partition letter on the installation CD is still a big problem.
For example, if your system is broken, you need to use Vista's installation CD to repair it. Vista installation CD will still be very good at discriminating the drive letter when you perform System Recovery, just follow the drive letter when you boot from the CD. Disorder is a truth.
VII, the use of QQ blue screen solution
