Vista and SP1, do you want me to get a discount on your expectations?

I have always had great expectations for Vista, its gorgeous appearance, its user-friendly operations, everything seems to be better than XP, although there are some small compatibility software problems, but I have always been tolerant of it, because I always believe that Ms will solve these problems one by one.

 

But today, during the installation of Sp1, my dissatisfaction with it has finally increased to an unforgivable level.

The Windows Mail provided by Vista is easy to send and receive mails. But what about Foxmail's user-friendly settings compared with other mail clients? It cannot be minimized to the system tray, and there is no RSS subscription function ...... In the tide of Web2.0, why does it not provide this previously exciting RSS subscription function? Foxmail may have only made minor improvements based on it, but it makes me feel so comfortable when I use Foxmail. In addition, there is an outlook in office software, which is also a Ms product. Why cannot they be combined? Since Ms decided to integrate a series of software in Vista (Windows Mail is one of them ), so why don't we make a little improvement and make it easier for us to use it? I believe it is not difficult to add an RSS subscription to the system tray when the minimum value is added to the original Outlook Express version?

The above is one of them.

In addition, the SP1 provided by MS was just released on csdn and we can see that many machines cannot install SP1. Since we decided to release the SP, why didn't we test it in advance? Of course, I know that Ms is definitely used for sending compatibility testing, and it is certainly not as I said that SP will be released without testing.

Let's talk about how I felt when I installed SP1 today. After completing SP1, double-click it and run it. The prompt says "it takes an hour or longer to install the patch "...... It takes less than 30 minutes to install the Vista system, but installing this SP1 must be equal to or greater than twice the installation time ......

I have a certain expectation: it may take only one hour for me to install. However, the following situations make me feel cold.

The installation package has been decompressed for about 30 minutes, and the system restarts automatically. "configuration update in progress, phase 1" is displayed. It takes n minutes. Then "configuration is being updated, the second stage", and it took n long time. At this time, the anger in my heart has quickly increased. In the third stage, the anger burned completely.

"Configuration is being updated. Stage 3: 0%, 1%, 2% ......" The percentage increased at 1.1 points. when it reached 50%, it actually stopped!

Is it possible to launch a large system? I waited patiently for 10 minutes.

After 10 minutes, it will be 50%.

Is the update program being processed? Wait patiently for 10 minutes.

Another 10 minutes passed, or 50%.

I decided to wait for another 5 minutes. If I haven't responded after 5 minutes, I will press the power supply directly!

Five minutes later, it is still standing like Qingshan, or 50%!

I pressed the power for 5 seconds and the system was shut down illegally.

It has been illegally shut down n times, because it sometimes stays at the moment of "shutting down" and does not go forward. I tried to solve the problem that could not be shut down, but I did not find any effective solution after searching for N for a long time. netizens said that some software could not respond and could not be shut down. But is vista unable to control the response of the software? Can it ignore USER commands and wait until the unresponsive software responds and then execute the user's shutdown command?

Press the power-on key, and the system prompts "abnormal shutdown". Select "normal start", perform self-check, enter the system, and then start "configuration update, stage 3" again "......

Don't let me execute the command for an illegal shutdown again.

At 50%, I thought, would it be static again?

Fortunately, it does not. It is still rising at 1.1 points. I stared at the number indicating the progress, for fear that it would stop again.

Another 10 minutes later, the progress finally reached 100%. I took a sigh of relief and the upgrade was completed.

Then enter the system.

Press win to connect to the network.

However, on the right side of the menu, there are no previous options, my computer, connection, my documents ...... It's like a shy big girl hiding it. It's time for me to find it!

I did not care about it. As it was hidden, it was really hurt. Wait until you are in a good mood to sort out this scarred system.

Hide the Start Menu of Sp1 on the right

 

I still don't know whether the function that cannot be shut down can be successfully solved after SP1 is installed.

 

Vista, why can't you worry me as easily as when using xp on the development machine?
