Tips after installing Windows XP system

When you buy XP discs with great enthusiasm, after a long file copy, Windows recognition hardware and initialization system, finally enter the beautiful interface of Windows XP, please pay attention to the five tips for this article. In the settings in the prompts, you will find that XP is more convenient to use.
1, turn off the system restore function
Although Windows XP system restore is one of its selling points, but I suggest you close this setting. System restore requires huge hard disk space. The default setting is to restore points in each partition. Record the software installation and usage status of each partition. If you can't wait to use the computer according to the default settings, you can't use it for a week. The hard disk will be filled with a large number of files generated by G, and this kind of restore function; and the system restores a large amount of data to read and write the hard disk, the CPU usage is also very large, and most people's machines still stay at present. In CPUs below the G level, the speed may be affected. So unless your hardware is really top-level configuration, and you need to install new software or change the system settings frequently, you can use XP system restore function, otherwise it will be closed, the old and practical software itself The uninstall function.
If you really want to appreciate this new feature, the compromise is to turn off the restoring of other partitions, leaving the partition where you installed XP, so that you can record and selectively restore the state of Windows. Like you install games and put pictures, MP3 partitions, there is no need to use the system restore function.
2, "Group group similar taskbar button" in the taskbar, set
This depends on your most commonly used application. “Group similar taskbar buttons” setting can make your taskbar less open and keep clean, but if you use QQ communication software to chat with people online, if there are more than two friends at the same time You talk, you will immediately feel the inconvenience caused by the default settings of XP - every time you want to switch the conversation object, you must first click on the group, then pop up the menu to select the friends to talk to, and each friend is in the group All the icons are displayed in the same way. When there are many conversation objects, you may have to click one by one to see who just replied, waiting for your reaction, and choosing the wrong one, you have to choose from the group. It is very troublesome. Obviously, this is not as good as opening a few windows, and clicking on each small window in the taskbar can start chatting.
