Check the use of Windows XP operating system taboo

No matter what system is used taboo, the system is also like the machine to use well to maintain the problem, no problem, the following small series for everyone to organize some of the use of Windows XP operating system taboo, I hope you do not offend .

First, avoid virtual drive

Now most virtual drive is unstable in XP, it is easy to cause XP crash, because virtual drive is different from general software: it through special mechanism, In the "Device Manager", I lied to Windows and let Windows think that the physical drive was added. XP only designed the driver to restore the hardware. I didn't expect to "restore/delete" the hardware itself. Because XP is specially optimized for NTFS and network, and most virtual CD-ROMs are developed under the FAT32 environment. Currently, there are few virtual CD-ROM softwares that are compatible with XP. If you have to install them, you have to endure several crashes. Slowly try which one is stable, and XP may crash if you don't.

Special reminder:

Even if you find a stable virtual drive software, if you virtualize more than 4 physical drive, it may trigger the XP activation check mechanism, asking you to activate XP again. ——Because Microsoft thinks that you have changed four hardware, it is likely to be a machine change. Therefore, it is recommended that you do not install a virtual CD drive.

If you really want to use a virtual optical drive, it is better to use multiple operating systems. It is better to use the 98 inside. It seems that only when developers who write virtual CD-ROM software write new versions that can run stably without causing activation, can you really use the virtual drive smoothly.

Second, avoid invalid date

XP also has a date check mechanism with the activation test. If your motherboard CMOS battery is powered down, or if you misuse or use other date-restricted software, causing the date to become an invalid date in 1999 (no XP developed in 1999), then XP will initialize the graphical interface. After the "Welcome to use" lock system, and without any tips and options, except the mouse can move like a crash. If you don't pay attention to the effect of the date, you can't fix XP anyway, so be sure to take care of the date you started XP. After you enter XP, it's okay to change the date.

Third, avoid the power supply of the cat is not open

XP is optimized for ISDN and broadband network design, for MODEM it is not so "care" & rdquo; Many cats do not have proper drivers in XP. They can only be replaced by FOR 2000 or NT drivers, and dial-up exceptions often occur. Especially for many foreign cats, if you don't turn on the power of MODEM when you start XP, you will not find the hardware when you open XP after you enter the graphical interface. You need to refresh the scanning hardware or restart XP again in the device manager. trouble. So please pay attention to friends with foreign cats: remember to turn on your MODEM power before entering XP.
