Eight hot issues of WINDOWS2000SP4

Microsoft in July launched the Windows 2000 of the latest Services pack Service Packs 4 (hereinafter referred to as SP4), the Chinese version has been available in the Microsoft China Web site download. After installing SP4, Windows 2000 will have the ability to support the USB 2.0 EHCI host controller and start supporting 802.1X, while the version of Windows Installer will also rise to 2.0. It is believed that many Windows 2000 users have installed SP4. However, after the new patch installation, some user's system has a variety of problems, where we provide some solutions. I need to remind you that when you install a new patch package, the system will ask "whether to archive", then be sure to select "File Archive", which will occupy a certain amount of disk space, but if there are problems in the future can be restored to the state before the installation, so it is necessary to choose.
A: When installing SP4 prompts "cannot verify Update.inf file integrity, please confirm cryptographic service is running", installation cannot continue.
WORKAROUND: Please recall: Have you removed the certificate from the system? This may be the cause of this problem. If you do delete and have a backup, you may be able to resolve the above error by importing all the certificates again. The steps are as follows:
Step one: Right click on the desktop Internet Explorer icon and select "Properties" from the pop-up drop-down menu.



Step two: In the pop-up Internet Properties window, enter the Contents tab.
Step three: Click the certificate button and you will see Certificate Manager. Please click the "Import" button to enter the Certificate Import Wizard and select the backup file.
Step Fourth: Now install Windows 2000 SP4, the error message should not appear again.

Some Windows XP users will also receive the above error prompts when installing SP1 patches, the solution is simpler, just open the cryptographic service. First click on "Start → run", then enter CMD and enter the following command:

net stop cryptsvc

ren catroot2 oldcatroot2

net start cryptsvc

Barrier two: After installing SP4, user logon script cannot run.

Condition: This failure may occur when a logon script contains Group Policy.

Workaround:

The first step: Login to the system as an administrator, click "Start → run", Input: Gpedit.msc and enter, open the Group Policy window.

The second step: click on "Computer Configuration" to enter the "management template → system → Group Policy."

Step three: Double-click Allow user policies and roaming user profiles across forests, select Enable, and press OK.

　


　　

Step Fourth: Exit the Group Policy tool.

Fifth step: Wait for a period of time, so that the modified Group Policy has sufficient time to refresh.

If you are not patient enough, you can update Group Policy in the following ways: Click "start → run", input: cmd, enter the command Prompt window after entering. Enter the following command: Secedit/refreshpolicy machine_policy.

Sixth step: Log off and then install SP4.

Three: After installing the SP4, many of the computer fonts (such as Han-meter) can not be used.

Workaround: Some users do reflect this, which is usually related to the download of the patch package. Please check if you download the SP4 patch package is complete, recommend the best from the Microsoft official website download. Some personal websites may also provide downloads, but the security from these places is not very good, some patches will let the system have some inexplicable problems. For important files such as patch packs, download the comparison insurance from the official website.

Another scenario where downloading is incomplete: The file cannot be downloaded after downloading, prompting you to choose how to open it. If you change it to a compressed file name like Zip, you can open it, but there is no executable file. This is also not a complete patch package, before downloading to observe the size of the file, the normal file size should be 131MB.

Barrier four: I heard that after upgrading SP4, the system bar icon can display True color. But I'm done with the installation.

Method One:

First step: Check to see if the SP4 patch is installed in Windows 2000. Open Explorer, locate and right-click the Explorer.exe in the C:\WINNT directory, check to see if the version number is 5.0.3700.6690, and if so, continue with the following modifications.

Step two: Backup Explorer.exe to other folders, such as: D:\temp, open the file with UltraEdit32, then use the menu "search"--"go To line number/page times" Enter 0x088e6, look for the following code, change the nineth byte 01 to 11, and so on , change the value of the highlighted byte in the following addresses to 11.

1) Offset: 0x088e6, {0x6a,0x2c,0x6a,0x40,0xc7,0x44,0x24,0x18,0x01,0x00,0x00,0x00,0xff,0x15,0x68,0x11}

2) Offset: 0x14e1d, {0x83,0x3d,0x28,0xb3,0x41,0x00,0x00,0x6a,0x01,0x5b,0x74,0x11,0xff,0x77,0x04,0xe8}

3) Offset: 0x14e2e, {0x0b,0xff,0xff,0x85,0xc0,0x74,0x05,0xbb,0x01,0x20,0x00,0x00,0x6a,0x01,0x6a,0x00}

After the completion of the above three places to save.

If the system partition is an NTFS file system: Then reboot to the command line in Safe mode, copy D:\temp\explorer.exe to C:\WINNT under the command line, overwrite the original, and then reboot.

If the system partition is FAT32 file system, can be started with the Windows 98 boot disk, in the DOS command line under the way of overwriting the original Explorer.exe, restart can. Method Two:

If you think the above modification method is too troublesome, can download a patch to Www.dr-hoiby.com/TrayIconIn256Color, it can also achieve the same modification effect.

Barrier five: Some windows asp.net installed, after the SP4 patch, there will be asp.net not run error, the system prompts the specified Web server is not running asp.net.

Solution: At present, Microsoft has not confirmed this problem, so can only be solved by unloading the SP4 method. If the direct uninstall does not go well, follow the instructions below.

Step One: Move the contents of C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft Help to other places.

Step two: In the start → settings → control panel → admin tools → services, disable IIS admin and WWW Server two services.

Step three: Restart the computer.

Fourth step: Uninstall SP4 from Control Panel → add/Remove Programs.

Step Fifth: Restore the files in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft help back.

Obstacle six: After uninstalling SP4, you previously set the scheduled task cannot run, even if the reload SP4 cannot resolve.

This problem occurs because the Windows Certificate database is converted to SP4 compatible format when you upgrade SP4, but when you uninstall SP4, the database does not revert back to its original format, so Windows is unable to recognize the scheduled task certificate. You can only re-create these scheduled tasks.

Also, if you later want to uninstall and reload SP4, you should first go to the Control panel → admin tool → service, double-click task Scheduler, change the startup type to disabled in the open window, then uninstall SP4, then reload SP4, and then the task Scheduler is set to Automatic.

Handicap Seven: After I upgraded SP4, I had a problem where I couldn't download POP3 mailboxes, I couldn't use ICQ, I couldn't access certain websites, and I had slow access.

This is a more typical fault, the solution is actually very simple, click "start → set → network and dial-up connections", right-click the network connection used and select "Properties", remove all the protocols, services, and clients in the General tab, and then one by one reload, which solves the problem.

Handicap Eight: Why does the Windows SP4 entry in Add/Remove Programs disappear after you install IE6.0 SP1, and you cannot uninstall SP4?

This is primarily to prevent file or library file conflicts from appearing after uninstalling SP4. If you want to uninstall SP4, then first uninstall the IE SP1 so that the SP4 uninstall entry appears again in the Add/Remove Programs window.

This problem does not occur in Windows 2000 after installing IE6.0 SP1 and installing SP4.
