4 Windows Vista Optimization treasure

Windows Vista is the latest version of Microsoft's Windows operating system. Microsoft initially officially announced the name on July 22, 2005, before operating system development code Longhorn. The internal version of Windows Vista is 6.0 (that is, Windows NT 6.0) and the official build is 6.0.6000. On November 8, 2006, Windows Vista was developed and officially entered mass production. The next two months are available only to MSDN users, computer hardware and software manufacturers, and corporate customers. On January 30, 2007, Windows Vista was officially sold to ordinary users and could also be downloaded from Microsoft's website. Windows Vista has been in the previous version of Windows XP for more than five years, which is the oldest time in Windows version history.

According to Microsoft, Windows Vista contains hundreds of new features, notably the new version of the graphical user interface and the new interface style called "Windows Aero", the Enhanced Search feature (Windows indexing Service), New multimedia authoring tools, such as Windows DVD Maker, and redesigned network, audio, output (print), and display subsystems. Vista also uses point-to-point technology (PEER-TO-PEER) to enhance the ability of computer systems to communicate in a home network, making it easier to share files and multimedia content between different computers or devices. For developers, Vista uses the. NET Framework version 3.0, which makes it easier for developers to write high quality programs than traditional Windows APIs.

Microsoft has also improved Vista security. One of the most critical aspects of Windows XP is that the system often has security vulnerabilities and is vulnerable to problems such as malware, computer viruses, or cache overflows. To improve the situation, Microsoft President Bill Gates announced in the first half of 2002 a "Trusted Computing policy" (Trustworthy Computing initiative) throughout the company, which aims to work with software development departments across the company, Solve security problems together. Microsoft says it is delaying vista development because it wants to prioritize the security of Windows XP and Windows Server 2003.

With Vista for over a year, fragmented encountered a lot of problems, but slowly from the problem to explore some of the features of Vista, the following introduction of several civilian Vista optimization program, personally think more than those online hair flashy to simple and more practical, to improve computer performance has a lot of help. Of course, a lot of optimization is also recommended to use the Vista Home company produced by the Vista optimization master.

1. Uninstall TCP/IP V6 protocol, improve network access quality

Our current Internet, basically is based on TCP IP v4 protocol, and V6 Protocol is a new concept,-in the application of the concept of the field is still a product, its own has a certain advantage (forgive me talents, the specific advantages of where also unknown ... , but Vista defaults to install this protocol, which brings some burden on our network card, affects the speed of Internet access, and may cause some strange faults. To uninstall the V6 protocol is simple, just go to the network and Sharing Center Select "View Status"-> "Properties" to remove the TCP/IP V6 protocol before the hook. After reboot, the NIC no longer loads the V6 protocol.

2. Turn off remote differential technology to speed up disk reading

Careful friends must have found that the Vista system in the replication or deletion operation is very slow, faster than the XP system. Even a very simple operation to delete a file to the Recycle Bin will take us a while. This is not to say that Vista will use more system resources than XP when deleting files, but because the operating system will open a "remote differential compression" function by default after normal installation. You don't have to think this "remote differential compression" is such a profound technique.

In fact, its principle is very simple, when vista in the remote "copy" or "delete" operation, will be the operation of the file in advance compressed, and when the operation is over, and then automatically extract the operation of files, in order to reduce the size of the file to faster transmission on the Low-speed network. But, paradoxically, Vista does not distinguish between remote or local operations when it performs remote differential compression. Even copy and paste a 1KB local file to complete the process. As a result, the time spent on compressing and decompressing is far greater than the amount of time required for replication, so that Vista will lag far behind older versions of XP in performing such operations.

But knowing the problem is a lot easier to solve. To turn off Vista's remote differential compression, we just click on the "Start" menu → "control Panel", and then through the "Program and function" icon → "turn on or off Windows features," The Vista system feature set, cancel the last "remote differential compression" Before the check box, and then click "OK" button to successfully turn off this feature. Close and try again local transmission speed and file deletion speed, is not and everyone beloved XP have a spell?

3.USB Device Transfer problem

When I use Vista, the most difficult to accept is the transmission speed of USB storage devices, how a slow word?! To the XP system, the speed of the speeding feeling disappeared ... But really not willing to delete vista, put back the old XP system,

So I was on the internet crazy Search related materials, always have nothing to gain (only see a sticker seems to be called foreign cattle to crack the USB transmission speed, the stability of the system has a certain risk, did not dare to try. , can only find a way, through Third-party software to try to speed up the USB transmission of Vista, found a name killcopy transmission software, download and install hurriedly test, the result makes me very satisfied, I use the Samsung mobile hard drive, in the use of killcopy this software for transmission, per second speed can reach 10M-11M, sometimes up to 12M, the speed is basically normal.

The

Basically and XP system under the USB device transfer speed is close (but is still slower than XP, do not know whether because Vista for device security and data security considerations, limited the speed of the USB device). (Also, when you connect to a USB device, before you are ready to use the software, you must go to Device Manager-disk drive---your mobile device right click, select "Optimize for Performance" in the "policy" point if you choose this mode, Vista will not be enabled, for mobile device cache, Even with killcopy, the speed is not fast.


4. For non-notebook users, it is recommended to turn off the energy-saving function of the network card (general home desktop will be pre-installed XP, but also the habit of problems, so not much introduced.) My home machine is quad core, 2G memory, so with Vista very cool)

do not want to comment xp good or vista good, because they are in order to comply with the requirements of the product, are the same excellent. We have to learn more from Uncle Gates, a while ago heard he had his own assets donated, this move, nothing to say, to the gates to the highest respect. I wish you all a happy use of vista. &NBSP
