Windows 2003 has been around for a while, and I believe many of my friends are using it. However, since Windows 2003 was developed for the needs of servers, the default settings of hardware such as sound cards and graphics cards have been processed. Therefore, individual users often encounter some "faults" when they use them. Of course, it is not difficult to solve them.
1. The picture is rough when playing movies
Many friends have such "encounters": their computer configuration is quite high, the graphics card can be automatically recognized and installed when Windows 2003 is installed, but the picture is very rough when playing movies, install The picture quality remains the same after the latest version of the graphics card driver. In fact, this is because the default display options of Windows 2003 are not optimized according to the needs of individual users.
★Solution: Right click on the desktop, go to “Display Properties→Settings→Advanced→Troubleshooting”, drag the “Hardware Acceleration” cursor to the right to “Full”, and then click “OK” "drop out. Then go to “Start → All Programs → Accessories → System Tools → System Information” and select “Tools → DirectX Diagnostic Tool” (since the program collects system information, so you need to wait a little, there may be a splash screen), select the “Display” option. Card, enable the "DirectDraw Acceleration" and "Direct3D Acceleration" items in turn, and then click "Exit".
2. Sound card does not work or the sound is seriously delayed
In Windows 2003, most sound cards can continue to use their drivers in Windows 2000/XP, while older sound cards (such as the DSM S90) drive only Manually installed. After installing the sound card driver, it can be sounded normally in Windows 2003 Standard Edition, but in the enterprise version, the system still can't sound, or the sound is seriously lagging when playing games.
★ solution: turn into the "Control Panel → Sounds and Audio control equipment", check the "Audio Service" option, click "OK." Go to the DirectX Diagnostic Tool, select the Sounds tab, drag the cursor to the right in Acceleration Level to Full Acceleration, click Exit, and finally restart the computer.
3. IE always reminds you of potential security risks
"I always feel that the latest version is the safest. I didn't expect to browse the webpage under Windows 2003. Every time I visit a page, IE will remind you of potential security risks and ask if you want to continue accessing. It’s inconvenient.” I often have friends complaining like this. The reason for this problem is that the default security level of IE in Windows 2003 is "high", so although the security is improved, it brings a lot of trouble to our daily Internet.
★ Solution: Start IE, select “Tools→Internet Options”, and set the security level to “Medium” in the “Security” tab.
4. System response is slow when running large software
Server and workstation requirements for system resources are different. If we want to run software such as Photoshop, 3DSMAX, etc., we should redistribute system resources and modify it to be similar to Windows. The status of XP.
★ Solution: Go to "Control Panel → System" select "Advanced" tab in the "Performance" column, click "Settings" button, select "Advanced" tab in the "Processor scheduling" and Select "Program" in both "Memory Usage" columns, and finally click "OK" and restart your computer.
