System software installation and recovery program

  

Foreword;

Many friends believe that: installed DIY as long as the hardware is assembled, can be lit, and then install Windows on everything. Future Windows crashes and system reloads are irrelevant. However, over and over the system reinstallation, setup, and the search and installation of many applications waste a lot of time and may cause accidental loss of important data. ;

How to avoid such things happening? The answer is: it is best not to use a computer or use UNIX (net is nonsense...), and secondly, the better way is: properly plan the use of the hard disk after the hardware is installed, and make a more complete set. Restore the system, so the first installation may be troublesome, but as the saying goes, sharpening the knife does not mistake the chopping work, now tired, will save a lot of time in the future, time is money, which means you will save in the future A lot of money.

Hard disk usage planning;

Nowadays, large-capacity hard disks are becoming mainstream. Here, 20GB hard disk is used as an example to plan the usage. Other hard disks can be referenced for planning. If you have a small capacity hard drive on hand, it's better to use it as a physical backup disk for important data. ;

First, let's assume that you do not use an operating system such as Linux, and the Windows 98/Me operating system is installed by default. The 20GB hard drive recommends that you first split the 4GB main boot area and set it as the active partition, then divide the remaining 16GB into the extended partition, which is divided into two logical partitions of about 8GB.

The main boot area, that is, the C drive, except for the installation of the operating system, it is recommended not to install other software, unless the software does not run on the C drive (there is actually very little software). In fact, due to our inertia, sometimes neglecting the management of the hard disk, some software may be accidentally installed to the C drive. Generally speaking, after a period of use, the capacity of the C drive will become smaller and smaller, especially under Windows. Temp subdirectory, because it generates a lot of temporary files and will take up a lot of hard disk space, it is recommended that you redefine their working paths. ;

Two logical partitions, temporarily named D and E, are used as follows: D drive is used as the installation and backup data for various applications. E disk is used as the game installation and virtual drive. The image file storage disk is used. The advantage of this separation is that it is easy to manage, and the application or other useful things are not accidentally deleted due to improper use of the frequently deleted game. ;

Specific operation: When installing the program, the general program will propose the default installation path, usually the default installation to the C drive, here, if it is an application, it is recommended that you install the path of the hard drive The drive letter is changed to D drive, and the other default paths are unchanged. If it is a CD-ROM game, it is recommended to use the virtual drive to mirror the disc after the installation process, which can improve the game speed and reduce the wear and tear of the drive. . If you do not want to play this game again, delete the image file.

Install the application;

After the above work, use the hard disk to start Win 98 and install the CIH explosion-proof software. This software is very small and does not take up system resources. Even after use, the machine Infected with CIH virus, it will not attack. It is recommended to use the CIH explosion-proof device developed by Chen Yinghao himself. After all, it is necessary to ring the bell to solve the bell. Of course, there are many CIH explosion-proof devices launched by the virus-killing software company, which can achieve the same effect.

Then the virus real-time monitoring firewall installation, such as Norton, Panda Guardian, KV3000, Kingsoft Internet Security, and other anti-virus software at home and abroad have this function. As for the version is better, you can check the recent related evaluation report, but as long as you install one, you can not install it at a time, the preferred one should occupy less system resources.

If your machine wants to go online, it is best to install an Internet firewall. There are also a lot of software in this area, such as Norton, Lockdown, Skynet Firewall and so on.

The next step is to create a Win98set subdirectory on the C drive, copy all the contents of the Win 98 subdirectory on the Windows 98 installation CD, in case you need to install new hardware later. ;

After restarting Windows again, you can install the large-scale applications you use. It should be noted that after the installation of the whole system, the hard disk image is to be mirrored. Therefore, the software with low frequency is not installed. I suggest you Only install the most commonly used ones, don't be greedy. Remember to change the default installation drive letter to D drive. When installing Office, what to install, if you don't use it, don't install it. If you just want to learn the software, don't install it first, and then install it after the hard disk image is completed. If you don't like it, delete it again, otherwise the Windows registry will be very large and messy, and the hard disk image will lose its meaning. ;

After installing some necessary small programs, the latest version of WinZip, OICQ, ACDsee, Winamp, fast cat whip, super rabbit, virtual drive, network dictionary, Foxmail, etc. These softwares are recommended to be installed on the D drive, and you need to create the Tools subdirectory under the D drive MySystem, and copy the latest version of the above software in this subdirectory. Users who like Foxmail for mail processing can install and set up mailboxes at this time. Users who use Outlook can also set the mail storage path to a subdirectory of the D drive in case the system is overwritten when the system is restored in the future. Users who need to use the FTP software can install and set up the relevant software at this time. After installing the download tool such as Jetcar or Netants, create a Download subdirectory on the D drive and change the download file storage directory to D:download. The network dictionary recommends installing IBM's Smart Dictionary 2000, which only occupies 4% of system resources. Other software generally accounts for 8-12% of system resources. This part needs to install more software, it is best to first sort the list, do not find out after installing the mirror to install a few small software necessary, resulting in regret. ;

After the necessary software is installed, you need to manage the desktop and start menu. Create several new folders on the desktop, named "Common Tools", "New Games", "Homepage Maker" or "Programming Software", etc., and then sort the icons on the desktop into the relevant folders. And create a shortcut to the corresponding installed program in the corresponding folder, then move the C:Mydocument subdirectory to the D drive, change the properties in the desktop "My Documents", so that once the Windows system crashes, you need to reload System, you do not need to back up the C drive. After doing this, the desktop is much cleaner, and then the start menu is also sorted out so that the program group of the start menu looks cleaner. ;


After setting and optimizing all the software, you need to manage the startup bar. The main purpose is to occupy the system resources as little as possible. Some small software does not need to be started every time. Can be shielded, start it when needed, in addition to the start menu of the start menu can be modified, you can also type "Msconfig" in the "Run" column of the start menu to modify, restart Windows after the modification, proceed Defragmentation work.

Design your own recovery system;

First of all, the installation of Windows, assuming that you are installing Windows 98 Second Edition, use the Win 98 CD to start the computer after the Fdisk work, then According to the prompts, format the C, D, and E disks separately, and then install Win 98.

After installing Windows and rebooting, you will start to install the driver. According to your motherboard's chipset, you can buy the motherboard with the relevant driver or patch, you need to install it correctly, install it. After confirming the properties in the system of the control panel, check if it is installed correctly. Of course, if you have a newer version of the driver or patch, you don't need to install the old version. You can create a subdirectory of "MySystem" on the D drive and create a "Driver" subdirectory in this subdirectory. After entering the Driver subdirectory, create a "Motherboard" subdirectory. After entering the subdirectory, create the subdirectory of the latest version of the driver or patch according to the version number and copy the relevant files to this subdirectory. Similarly, the Driver subdirectory also needs to create a subdirectory such as BIOS, monitor, graphics card, sound card and Modem, in order to store the latest version of the driver or patch of each accessory. After the above program is upgraded, copy one to the corresponding path. Next, in this way, after the system is restored, you need to re-install the latest patch or upgrade the software, you don't have to look for it.

After the motherboard patch is installed, you need to install the monitor driver, then the graphics card driver. After installation, you can adjust the resolution and refresh rate of the monitor, then the sound card driver, mouse, modem driver, etc. Other peripheral drivers such as scanners and recorders and related auxiliary software need to be installed together. All drivers and patches are created in the Mysystem/Driver directory on the D drive. After the backup is completed and installed, Need to adjust the Internet settings. ;

First create a dial-up network, set parameters, and then set the Modem property parameters, TCP /IP parameters, all set and optimized, restart Windows.

After Windows starts normally, it will exit the virus killing work. After the virus killing work, enter the C:WindowsCommand subdirectory and rename Format.com! Format.com, renamed Deltree.exe! Deltree.exe, this is to prevent Internet browsing of hypertext files containing unsafe code, causing the destruction of the system by calling the above two files. (Hey, who is so dark...);

Create a fast recovery system;

After the defragmentation work is done, you can use the cloning software like Ghost to create a C drive. The image file is stored in the MysystemSysimage subdirectory of the D drive. If a friend with a recorder can engrave the contents of the MySystem subdirectory into a CD-RW, note that it is not a CD-R, because many drivers will be upgraded at any time. With the new version of the file, first copy it to the MySystem's subdirectory of the D drive, then kill it, and finally add it to the CD-RW. In this way, when your Windows system crashes, you can use the image file on the hard disk or the image file on the CD-RW for quick recovery. The time required to reinstall most software and set parameters is saved. If you replace the hardware on your machine, you can't do this.) ;

If you change hardware, such as graphics cards, sound cards, etc., it is really a hassle. Or you need to repeat the above steps, or you need to remove the original hardware driver, install the new hardware driver or patch after the last system quick recovery. At the same time, the maintenance of the MySystem subdirectory of the D drive must be done on weekdays. In addition, some software that is usually installed for trial use, if not needed, will be removed as soon as possible by using the anti-installation program of the program, in case you forget the function of the program in the future and do not dare to delete it. If the original program does not have the Uninstall program, you need to use the "Add /Remove Programs" in the Control Panel to delete the program, if not here, you have to delete the subdirectory in the Explorer, if you have the ability, together Modify the Windows registry file.

If you are afraid of not remembering these steps, especially if you are worried about missing some small software, you can first draw a flow chart of various program installation and setting sequence on paper to ensure safety.
