XP installation FAQ (Report A: \\GHOSTERR.TXT error and other 10 questions)

If you encounter any problems during the download process, please take a look at this tutorial first.

◆ FAQ---------------------------------------- 1. The downloaded system file in ISO format cannot be installed or not reflected after decompression.

This is because the ISO system you downloaded is placed in the Chinese directory, or the system itself is the Chinese file name, such as "E:\\Software Backup\\System\\Deep_GHOST_XPSP3.iso"; If the system is changed to English, such as "E:\\SOFT\\GHOST_XPSP3.iso", it will be installed normally. ---------------------------------------- 2. A:\\ appears during GHOST operation GHOSTERR.TXT error?

Answer: This is the Ghost software copying data in the process of reading and writing errors, a dialog box pops up, the purpose is to save the error message to the A disk. Since it is a read and write error, generally appears A: \\ GHOSTERR. There are several cases of TXT error: 1. The ISO file is correct or the ISO download is incomplete. No matter what method you download, you must check the MD5 code. 2. Disc quality: Recovery failure due to the quality of the purchased disc or the disc. 3. Optical drive Quality: recovery failure due to the deterioration of the laser head aging reading capacity. 4. Recorder: Recovery failure due to poor quality of the recorder or aging caused by the recorder. 5. Burning method: due to burning speed Too fast to cause the disc to be difficult to read, it is recommended to select 16X/24X speed to burn at a time. 6. Over-engraving: Recovery failure due to incomplete data due to exceeding the capacity of the disc, generally suitable for 680M 7. Hard disk has bad sectors : Because the bad track causes GHOST to fail to write 8. Hard disk problem: Completely format the C drive once, do not add Q (example: format c:) 9. The hard disk has no drive letter: the partition table is lost due to viruses or other reasons. Recovery failure 10. Overclocking: Recovery failure due to overclocking instability, if you eliminate the above problem, still read the disk error, it may be other hardware problems. A complete hardware system consists of many components, they are an organic whole. If the quality of a key component is unstable, the whole machine will run unstable. Running Ghost in such a system will naturally lead to errors. According to experience, you should first suspect memory and try to replace the memory. Double memory compatibility. Secondly, check the motherboard, hard disk (and its data cable), and then pay attention to whether the CPU's heat is normal. Since everyone has their own experience and methods, here only point to the point. Many brands have this problem on the machine, in the main Before partitioning, hide a partition installed by the manufacturer for the whole system detection. Therefore, you should pay attention to this problem when performing GHOST on the brand machine. -------------------- ----------------------------- 3, the sound card can not drive! Installed but does not sound, or the system suddenly restarts automatically during the installation process?

Answer: The automatic recognition capability of integrated drivers has not yet reached 100% accuracy. It is reflected in the fact that individual sound cards and network cards may admit mistakes. The most obvious example is that the sound card of the AD188X is mistaken for a Realtek sound card. Fortunately, the installation wizard will pop up before installation. At this point, the user should not rush to click to continue, but to first understand the sound card model. If it is indeed Realtek's sound card, you can press it all the way; if you find that it is actually the sound card of AD188X, click: Install from the list or specified location-→ Do not search, I have to choose the driver to install, at this time There are many types of sound cards listed. Select SoundMAX from it (SoundMAX is the driver name of the AD188X chip). If it has been mis-installed, you can also find the hardware in the “Device Manager”, right click-→ update the driver, then repeat the above steps. How do I know which model the sound card is actually? Open the chassis to see the chip, or find the Installer Tools & mdash in the Start menu; Hardware Tools & mdash; Hardware Comprehensive Detection Tool & nbsp; EVEREST & rdquo; to detect. This is a skill that a qualified technician should possess and will not be discussed here. ------------------------------------------------- 4 Can not find the optical drive after installing the system! The optical drive in Device Manager has an exclamation point?

Answer: This is caused by a device conflict caused by the wrong sound card driver. How to install the sound card driver, please see the previous answer. ------------------------------------------------- 5 Why are other computers on the Internet neighbor not accessing my computer?

Answer: XP has a lot of entries for the LAN itself. In order to ensure security, this system does not do a good job of LAN beforehand. However, it has been fully considered for the user, and the batch file for LAN sharing is ready. You only need to execute it. The batch is located in the Start menu - Programs & mdash; Installer Tools & mdash; In addition, if the machine is equipped with Jinshan net darts, it will not be able to access the machine (even if the working group is not working, it is awful), the Jinshan net darts should be unloaded, and the LAN will be restored after restarting. ------------------------------------------------- 6 Japanese, Korean, and Korean input methods cannot be used. XP comes with "Microsoft Pinyin Input Method 3.0" can not be used?

Answer: ____ and Korean input methods account for more than 60 M in the system. We are Chinese, and most of us may not be able to use it for the rest of our lives, so we deleted it. The location of the input method directory in the system is: C:\\windows\\ime If you really need the Japanese and Korean input method, just look for the computer with XP system, copy the entire directory and overwrite the original directory. The Japanese and Korean input methods can be restored to normal immediately. In addition, "Microsoft Pinyin Input Method 3.0" is also deleted, causing an error after adding the input method. If you want to use this input method, you can also retrieve the missing files. The folder is located at: C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\IME\\PINTLGNT ------------------------------------ ------------- 7. Why did my hard drive become a pluggable device after installing this system, I was not like this before?

Answer: You may be using nForce motherboard and serial hard drive. The nForce chipset driver includes a unique IDE driver (called nvidia IDE SW). This system integrates this driver and is installed automatically. An icon for the pluggable device appears in the system tray bar indicating that the driver is properly installed. You didn't have this icon because you didn't have the driver installed and the performance was not fully utilized. ------------------------------------------------- 8 I installed it, but the startup speed is very slow! It’s not the author’s progress bar that can be passed in a circle and a half.

Answer: The speed of the startup is not only related to the system, but also related to your hardware settings. Please check one by one: a. Check the mode of the hard disk in the self-test form, the DMA mode is normal. The PIO mode is extremely slow. If it is PIO mode, please enter the BIOS and load the default value, and then turn it on, it should be changed back to DMA. b. Check the CD-ROM in the self-test form to see if the CD-ROM is connected to the slave disk. If it is, it will seriously slow down the boot speed. Because the system detects the master disk first at startup, and then detects the slave disk, if the master disk is empty, it takes a few seconds here. Please turn off the computer and take the optical drive back to the main disk. It is also possible to move the hardware, that is, set the main disk to “ld”; in the IDE attribute of the CD-ROM drive. Some optical drives are set at the slave when they are shipped from the factory. If you have never noticed it, please pay attention now! c. The hard disk (parallel port) should use 80-core data cable. Do not use a 40-core optical drive cable instead. The speed of the optical drive line can only reach DMA33, and the speed of the hard disk can reach DMA100 or DMA133. d, a new generation of motherboards added SATA hard drive interface. The user's hard drive is generally only one piece. That is to say, there will always be an IDE port or a SATA port that is idle. Each time the system is turned on, the system must detect each hard disk interface. An interface that does not have a device attached will consume a few seconds of time due to detection. So this type of motherboard starts the scroll bar and rolls a few more turns (such as Intel 865 and later). We should turn off the idle IDE or SATA channel in the device manager. When starting, you can reach the ideal state of rolling one and a half. If your hard drive is a new high-speed, high-density hard drive, the progress bar will be less than a lap. ------------------------------------------------- 9 I downloaded the RAR file! I unlocked it and burned all the files inside to the CD. But how can this CD not start?

Answer: Beginners often don't know how to distinguish between file types. This is actually an ISO file. The reason why beginners think it is a RAR file is because there is a WinRAR icon in front of the file name. This is just the icon given to it by the WinRAR software on your computer. It is not accurate to use the icon to determine the file type. You should click on the file attribute to see the extension. You can see that the extension is ISO, so this is an ISO file. The ISO file contains the startup information of the CD. Please do not decompress it. Otherwise, the startup information will be lost after decompression. If the original download file has been deleted, you will have to download it again. -------------------------------------------- 10, I did not decompress, I am directly engraving the iso file! But how can it still not start?

Answer: How is a direct method? Dragging iso directly into the editing window is wrong. The correct way is: run nero-→ file menu-→ open, file type selection *.iso, select the iso file you downloaded. This is the right way to burn. Also note that the write mode selects “Disc One Time Burning”.
