Mistakes and confusion that newcomers use Win7 easily

Specially summarizes some of the misunderstandings and confusions that newcomers are prone to when using Win7. Please list them so that newcomers can adapt to the new operating system as soon as possible. This article only represents a personal point of view, please correct me if it is not correct.

1, the problem of memory use: This is a big misunderstanding, many people use the eyes of the xp era to look at Windows 7, this is wrong, because the memory usage mechanism of the two is different. For example, 2G memory installed win7, boot display takes up about 500mb, 4G memory installed win7, open takes up more than 1G, the larger the memory, the bigger the occupation. Xp is basically fixed, and the memory usage of 2G and 4G installed systems is similar. Therefore, using the theory of xp to look at win7 itself is wrong. It is recommended to read the article "Win7 takes up more memory and is deliberate".

2, uac problem: In fact, this is a very good mechanism, open uac at least a lot of viruses can not be secretly executed, because any system changes need to be confirmed by uac. Turning on uac means adding another procedure that lets you know what the system is doing, and the security is higher. Of course, the administrator account is the same, just because the administrator has the highest authority, so many viruses or hackers can easily use it to do a lot of things and make you unable to know, and more, there are still many people who do not set a password, it is simply to the hacker and The virus has opened its doors, and accounts with lower usage rights are good for the safety factor. In fact, after the installation of the original xp will let you create a new account instead of using the administrator, but because the domestic streamlined, ghost version xp too much, and they use the administrator by default, so many people habitually use the administrator . Normally, using a non-administrator account has no trouble for daily operations. If you want to use the administrator, it is recommended to change the name and set a password. This is a good habit.

3, the operation is not as convenient as xp: This is an adaptive problem. When I first used Vista, I couldn't feel the North. But after I got used to it, I felt that many changes were very intimate and convenient. In particular, the changes in Win7 are closer to the user's operating habits.

4, software, game compatibility: In addition to those old and not updated software, now the software basically has a version corresponding to win7, at least the commonly used software is completely flawless. As for those large commercial software, it should be able to keep up with the trend. Only some domestic software may have some problems. In fact, this can't blame the operating system. The software is not the most important reason. It is really inseparable to run a virtual machine, basically solve it. As time goes by, compatibility issues will not exist sooner or later. Win7 is much better. After Vista's preparation, the incompatibility has been at least a long time. It is no exaggeration to say that when xp was first launched, the phenomenon of incompatibility was several times more than that of Win7. This did not affect xp as a mainstream system for many years.

5, optimization: see a lot of posts about optimization, turn off this, that. I personally feel that it is meaningless to make win7 a class xp in order to save a little space. So you should continue to use xp, you said no? Win7 is installed by default, it is quite good, there is not much optimization value, it is quite good. Of course, if your computer configuration is not too high, the hard drive is not too big, you need to do slimming and streamlining, but it must be in the case that you understand the meaning. Software like Win7 Optimizer is basically not used for optimization, but is used for other aspects of setting up and beautifying.

6, close update: In order to prevent the update by Microsoft ban, this is also a misunderstanding. Update is the root of the treatment, but also the fundamental of system security, and then how to install anti-virus software can not top up to make up for the defect itself. Third-party patching is far less understanding of windows than windows itself. Update is nothing terrible, open it, really. The author from the xp to win7 all the way to open the update, did not cause any blood. If the user has a shadow on the update, you can set the update to have an update prompt, but not automatically install, so you can check which updates you do not need to install, in order to prevent the misplacement of some patches that may ban piracy. Turning off update is highly undesirable.

7, Win7 temperature is high: This is true, after all, the interface of the system is more gorgeous. Especially notebook users, because many notebooks are integrated graphics, which means that the CPU needs to act as a GPU. When using this type of notebook with win7, the CPU calculation amount is higher than the use of xp, so it is normal to increase the temperature. I believe that the original notebook will be better controlled in terms of temperature.

8, crash, restart more, the Internet is slow, watching the video spent: To be honest, these are caused by software, driver problems, and the system itself has nothing to do. The crash, restart, and slow down the Internet have never happened. The video is unclear, jagged or too stuck. This is not true. The video is unclear and jagged is related to the graphics driver and rendering. In the default rendering mode of the player, the new version of the graphics driver will cause this phenomenon, and the old version is no problem. (The nvidia graphics card uses the 182.xx driver as the dividing line. These problems exist above 182.xx. The following does not exist.) If you can't solve the problem by replacing the driver, you can usually try to change the rendering mode of the player. In general, because of the system changes, the old rendering method and the system itself will cause some conflicts, so these problems are caused. I believe that with the passage of time, the playback software will be perfected and these problems will be solved. There is a problem with jaggedness on the line. Some people say that turning off the aero effect is fine, because I have not encountered it, so let me mention it.

Another problem with playing video cards, especially some 720P/1080P MKV. This is because win7 has a built-in decoder, you will find that the newly installed system can play even if no decoding is installed, which is the credit of the built-in codec and decoder of win7. However, the compatibility of these programs and decoders is definitely not as good as those of the corresponding codecs and decoders, so it is normal to make some discounts during playback. By default, the system's built-in decoder has the highest priority, plus the current editing and decoding software has not fully penetrated win7, so it is normal to control. You can delete the built-in decoder yourself, or wait for the encoding and decoding software to be updated to compete for priority (wincodecs seems to be more targeted). The msmpeg2adec.dll and msmpeg2vdec.dll files in the system32 (32-bit system) and syswow64 (64-bit system) directories are the culprit of decoding. After obtaining the permission, rename or delete the file. However, win7's system score detection needs to use them, it is recommended to change the name.

Other issues may not be listed. Here are some of the problems that I have encountered since using win7, and provide corresponding solutions. I hope that all win7 users can make a smooth transition, and realize that Win7 is superior to xp, instead of giving up adapting because of some problems, and then continue to use xp, so that it will never progress.
