Even if the performance of Win8 is superb and white, it will still encounter such problems when it is first used. These problems are not caused by the failure of the system itself, but because the system is not enough enough. This article mentions several things to pay attention to. problem.
Metro program does not work properly?
Upgrade graphics driver
The use of Metro program is the biggest change that Win8 system brings to users, and Metro application depends on graphics support, so once the program runs abnormally It is very likely that the graphics card driver is incompatible or incorrectly installed, so sometimes the graphics card driver will be updated.
The mouse moves to the right side of the screen, pops up the charmbar, clicks on the charmbar “Set”-“Control Panel”-“Device Manager”, or directly click Search, enter “Control Panel”, Then find the “display adapter”, right click and select the update driver.
Update Graphics Drivers
Correctly Adjust Screen Resolutions
The appropriate resolution for each monitor is different. If the Metro program is not working properly, you can check if the monitor resolution settings are correct. The display resolution is viewed by right-clicking on the desktop, selecting “Screen Resolution” under the pop-up menu, and then entering the screen resolution setting interface.
Adjust screen resolution
UAC account security level adjustment
Some Metro programs can't run, maybe because the current account security level of the system is too high or too low, users need to adjust the UAC security level. . Adjustment method: Click the control center (a small flag mark) in the lower right corner of the desktop, and then click “Change User Account Control Settings” to adjust the security level of the account.

Switch LIVE and Local Accounts
The normal operation of some Metro programs depends on accounts of different nature. If a program is not working properly, users can switch from local accounts. Going to a live account, or doing the opposite, may work.
Account switching method: In the desktop environment, move the mouse to the lower right corner of the screen, click on “ Search” on the charmbar, enter “user", click “user account” to set, or click “ & rdquo; Select “ Control Panel & rdquo;, then click & ldquo; User Account & rdquo;, then according to the system prompts first log out of the current account, and then switch to other accounts.
Switching between live and local accounts
If the Metro program is not working properly, most of the software and software conflicts, such as the driver is not normal, or the software conflicts with the system and hardware, but also And the security control strategy of Win8.1, the system account has a relationship.
What is the system startup speed and running speed?
The user has installed too many applications. These programs come with a lot of startup items, which causes the system to start slowing down. Solving this problem is like many optimization software. That way, either kill the virus, or turn off the extra boot self-starting items that come with the software.
Start slowdown: Available system comes with tools to manage startup items
Users don't just think about saving effort, but completely optimize third-party optimization software. Before the launch of win8.1 system, Microsoft engineers have already The corresponding system service or startup item is optimally optimized (such as delayed startup), and the third-party optimizer only shows the user as many startup items as possible, and the user mistakenly believes that the more startup items are closed, the system startup speed The higher, this actually affects the overall performance balance of the system, causing the speed to rise or fall or cause other failures. What should we do? So we can use the optimization tools that come with the system, because these startup items are listed. It does not affect the system, users can be safely prohibited (except anti-virus software).
Two methods to manage the win8.1 startup item
1. Move the mouse to the lower right corner of the screen, click on the pop-up charmbar, click “Search”, enter “System”, click in the search results “ The task manager & rdquo;, in turn, manages the startup items.
2. Press the "Win+R" key combination, and type “msconfig” in the pop-up dialog box, so that you can enter the system configuration, you can modify the startup items and also manage the system services.
3.“Ctrl+Alt+Del” The key combination directly calls out “Task Manager”, and then switches to the “Start” tab to manage the startup items. You can select “Disable”. Startup item.

What is the slowdown of the system after using it for a while?
Many optimization software will turn off the defragmentation function so that the system does not always run the disk in the background. Tools, to a certain extent save system resources. However, since the system retains this function, it is definitely not completely useless, especially for the system disk is still quite necessary, often do not organize the system disk, time will seriously affect the system running speed, so if users want to save system resources, If you are too lazy to manually organize, you can set up the defragmentation plan in detail.
Right click on a disk drive and select “Properties> on the pop-up dialog to switch to <;Tools".
Enter Disk Defragmentation Tool
In the Optimize Drive dialog box, you can select the scheduled task yourself, for example, set to “Weekly The following "If you miss three scheduled runs in a row, notify me", also check, the prevention plan task is lost, such as the finishing time error set to 5 am, but how can the user open the computer at 5 o'clock? Br>
Check the scheduled task's "missing reminder"
The system that causes the system to be slow is mainly in the system disk (other disk programs are emptied as soon as they are uninstalled), so the user can select the system in a targeted manner. The disk drive is defragmented, which prevents the defragmentation tool from running unnecessary long time in the background and affects the speed of the system finishing. It also saves the user to manually open the tool to clean up the debris. We click on the drive's "Select" button to enter the dialog shown below, then the user removes the other disk options and selects a system disk for regular defragmentation.
