Making Ghost files for Windows 2003 systems

Many schools have upgraded the Windows 2000 diskless Terminal Network system to Windows 2003 two years ago. In addition to the system, the general installation of Office, WPS, Photoshop and other commonly used software to the C:\Program file\ directory, c area may suddenly soar to about 2GB.

Making system mirroring and burning a recovery disc is the most effective way to prevent it, but if the system mirrors more than 700MB, it cannot be burned on a single disc. This paper describes how to effectively reduce the system partition volume before burning.

First, delete the C-Packing directory page file Hiberfil.sys

When your computer sleeps, it saves the contents of memory to your hard disk, which is named Hiberfil.sys, which is typically hundreds of trillion. Enter the "control Panel → power Options → hibernate" option, uncheck "Enable Power", save the amount of space that you set the virtual memory capacity.

Ii. Delete files in the C:\Windows\System32\Dllcache directory

Enter Sfc.exe/purgecache at the command prompt (note: There are spaces between "sfc.exe" and "/") to reduce the system by about 300MB.

Third, mobile "virtual memory"

By default, virtual memory is managed automatically by the system, and virtual memory is stored in the system partition. In fact, we can store the virtual memory outside of Area C. Select the "My Computer → system properties → advanced" tab and click the "Settings" button in the "Performance" bar. Select the Advanced tab, click the Change button in the "Virtual Memory" bar, select the system partition, then select the "No paging File" item, and then select "Yes" in the pop-up window after the point [Set] button. Then select a non-system partition, select Custom size, enter data such as 256MB, click [Set], click OK, and then restart the computer.

Windows 2003 supports more hardware devices, most of which automatically install the appropriate drivers when the system is installed, and the hardware driver backup files Driver.cab stored in the "\windows\driver\cache\i386" Directory of the system partition. After the hardware installation is complete, the file basically loses its value, and we can remove it or move it to another partition, releasing about 70MB of space.

Iv. deletion of "temporary files"

Go to C:\Windows\Temp and delete all the files in it. There may be some file system prompts in use and cannot be deleted during the removal process, we can start the system with the Windows 989 boot disk and then delete it.

V. Delete Help files

If you are familiar with the system, or if you rarely use the system's Help files, you can delete or transfer the files under C:\WINDOWS\HTLP. You can free approximately 40MB of space.

Vi. Delete unnecessary font files

Go directly to C:\Windwos\Font and delete the font files you can delete. Do not worry about the deletion of the wrong file, if you can not delete, the system will be prompted cannot be deleted.

Finally, using Ghost 8.0 to select the highest compression ratio of "hight" to make a mirror, if the system partition is around 1.4GB, the mirror file is not generally greater than 700MB, you can burn directly in a CD. If the partition capacity is too large due to the frequent installation of software, you can make a mirror with Ghost 8.0 's volume compression.

The key to volume compression is to add the necessary parameters after the Ghost Start command. The format of its commands, such as: ghost-split=650. where "650" is the qualified size of the mirrored file, in megabytes (MB), with a value range of 0~2048. The specific method and the normal production of the mirror is basically the same, but if the mirror is larger than 650MB, the final production after the completion of a few documents, we can use more than one CD to burn it down. Follow the prompts to insert the appropriate disc when you resume.
