Запуск Win95 с использованием Program manager-a для Win3.X
----------------------------------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
In your Windows directory there is a file called system.ini, which is system
file. The first line in Win95 reads as shell=explorer.exe, which tells the
computer to use a Win95 interface. If you are a person who prefers Win3.x
interface over the new one, simply change the line until it reads as follows,
under you system.ini file, the first line should read shell=progman.exe, and
the next time you start Windows you will have the familiar Win3.x interface.
Освобождение оперативной памяти за счет ограничения размера cach для диска
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
Windows 95 does not use Smartdrive to cache the hard drives in your system.
Instead, it uses 32bitVCache that dynamically grows and shrinks as the need
arises (not to be confused with Swapfile, which operates in a similar manner).
If you have more than 32MB of physical memory, VCache may be using more memory
than it can efficiently manage. You can limit the maximum amount of physical
memory VCache uses by adding the following lines to the System.ini file
(instead of the Registry - go figure!):[vcache] MinFileCache=512
MaxFileCache=2048. The above values are in Kbytes. Feel free to experiment, but
you must have a value greater than 0 for the MinFileCache value. By limiting
the VCache in this manner, you will experience improved system performance.
Требуемое соотношение между ОЗУ и disk free space для устойчивой работы
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
To help avoid crashes, make sure that you have twice as much hard drive space
available as you have RAM. For example, a system with 16MB of RAM should have
32MB of hard drive space available.
Замена мышки на управление при помощи arrow keys клавиатуры
-------------------------------------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
If your mouse goes out, its very hard to maneuver around Windows 95. You can
only get to a certain point when trying to select things without the mouse. You
have always heard that if your mouse goes out, you can change the accessibility
option from the control panel to use the arrow keys on the numeric keypad to
move the mouse around. Well, you can only do this if you have thought about it
beforehand. You need to go to control panel, click accessibility options,
choose the mouse tab (this is where you lose control if you have no mouse, no
way to choose the mouse tab without the mouse. Click on settings, then click
the box that says 'use shortcut'. Now, if your mouse goes out, you can press
the left ALT+Shift keys with the number lock key, and then you can use the
arrow keys on the numeric keypad to move the mouse. (the 5 in the center of the
pad is the same as a click)
Удаление копий документов, с которыми производилась работа ранее
----------------------------------------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
To disable the recent documents, create the following batch file :
c:\cleanup.bat. This file should contain the following lines : C:\ CD/ CD
WINDOWS CD RECENT DEL *.LNK Now modify the autoexec.bat and add the following
line onto the end of the file : CALL C:\CLEANUP.BAT. Now every time you bootup
and go into Windows the documents should be empty.
Запуск DOSa при старте, переход в DOS после выхода из Windows
-------------------------------------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
Okay, didn't see this one on the list so here goes. Edit your MSDOS.SYS to
show BOOTGUI=0. From here on you will not go automatically to Windows on
bootup. You may modify your autoexec.bat to contain a line saying 'WIN' to take
you to Windows on bootup. Now, when you shutdown from Windows95 and it is SAFE
TO SHUTDOWN YOUR COMPUTER type 'mode co80'. Your screen will then show you the
DOS prompt. Just as if you booted to the command prompt.
Утилита ERU, сохраняющая самую важную инф-ю о системе
------------------------------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
The Microsoft Windows 95 Emergency Recovery Utility (ERU) is designed to
provide a backup of your system configuration in case a problem should occur.
Microsoft recommends that you use the utility to create a backup each time you
make any significant system changes, such as adding new hardware or software.
(Quoted from the readme file in the 'Eru' folder on the Windows95 CDROM). On
the Windows 95 CDROM open the folder labeled 'Other', then open the 'Misc'
folder. Then Drag the folder 'Eru' to your root DIR on your HDD, so you have a
folder with the following path statement C:\eru. To run 'Eru' and thus back up
your system files: 1) Right click on your 'Start Button'. 2) Right Click on run
(Or use 'My Computer' etc.) 3) Type with out the quotes 'C:\eru\eru. 4) Now
just follow the directions as the dialogue boxes appear.
Каталог WINDOWS\TEMP должен быть пустым
--------------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
Emptying the \Windows\Temp folder of all its contents then running a Scandisk
and Defrag can cure a lot of intermittent and annoying problems and also speed
your system response up. This folder is supposed to be emptyied whenever you
shut down your computer, but if you don't shut it down or there are other than
'.tmp' Files or folders in there, then they will not be removed. This can cause
boot problems, system lockups and shutdown hangups. These files also take up
space that could be better used for other things.
Комадный файл для уничтожения временных файлов (см. выше)
---------------------------------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
First, make a batch file (.bat) file in your windows/folder directory. Then,
type the following lines in:
REM Begin Here echo y
del \windows\tempor~1\cache1\*.*
echo y
del \windows\tempor~1\cache2\*.*
echo y
del \windows\tempor~1\cache3\*.*
echo y
del \windows\tempor~1\cache4\*.*
REM End Here
The path and file extensions can be customized to whatever you want.
This will empty the folders specified.
Восстановление испорченного регистра
-------------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
If Windows95 gives you the dreaded 'Your registry is corrupt' message, DO NOT
PACNIC! Instead, reboot the computer. When you see 'Starting Windows 95', push
the 'F8' key. Choose 'Safe mode command prompt only' from the menu. You will
quickly get a 'C:\>' prompt. Change to your Windows directory and type 'regedit
/e savebutt.reg' It will say 'exporting file'. eventually it will stop with an
error message. After this, type 'attrib system.dat -r -s -h'. Then type 'ren
system.dat system.old'. Lastly you need to type 'regedit /c savebutt.reg'.
These commands will pull only the undamaged sections from your old registry and
make a new one based on these. If it fails, reinstall Windows. If it works,
some of your programs may no longer function. Reinstall them.
Дублирование дисков в My Computer - решение проблемы
-----------------------------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
Win95, Service Release 2 (OSR-2) on all new computers has a known problem of
loading duplicate device drivers in Win95. If you're getting strange GPFs, etc.
and Scandisk, deleting .tmp (temp) files, and Defrag do not solve the problem,
go into Windows Safe Mode (hit F5 at Startup). Go into Device Manager (in
System-Control Panel) and go through each device listed. If any duplicates are
found, delete both devices. Win95 will redetect at startup. This will clear up
a lot of problems. If you're having strange problems with a older release of
Win95, checking for duplicates will sometimes solve the problem.
Удаление иконки ВХОДЯЩИЕ (Inbox) на Decktop
-------------------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
If you don't use inbox, there is a way to delete it. Run the Registry Editor
(REGEDIT.EXE). Open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\
SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\explorer\ Desktop\NameSpace\ Look for
the key 00020D75-0000-0000-C000-000000000046, that has a default value of
Inbox. Delete the entire key (not just the default value), and close the
Registry Editor. Click on the desktop, and press F5 to refresh the desktop so
that this change will take effect.
Решение проблемы запоминания пароля в Dial-UP Networking
---------------------------------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
In the no-Password mode, the dial-up networking is unable to save the password
and remember it. You can get around this by going to settings, control panel
and then to passwords. Then, set it so that you can personalise the desktop.
Now, when you shut down windows, there will be another option, Log on as
another user. In this mode, you will be able to remember Passwords, so the
Dial-up networking will be rememberd. Enter your password in and save password.
Once it's been saved, go back to Passwords and change the configuration to
anyone can use the same settings of the desktop, and don't use any password at
all. Windows will now switch back to the normal mode, but somehow, the Dial-up
networking save password is unchanged. So, your password is now saved and you
won't have to type it in again.
При переустановке Windows не подхватываются драйверы - решение
---------------------------------------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
When installing Windows 95 either fresh or over an existing version of Windows
it is likely that some hardware will not be detected right the first time.
Before going to the Add New Hardware Wizard check the Other Devices listing in
System Properties. To do this, right click on My Computer then left click on
Properties. Next left click on the Device Manger Tab and then left click again
on the + next to Other Devices. If your unfound device is listed here then
simply pull up the properties by highlighting the device and clicking on the
Properties button then on the Drivers tab and then on Change Driver. Just
choose the correct drivers from the list that is presented or click on Have
Disk to use drivers provided by the hardware manufacturer.
Где искать программы, если они запускаются, но их нет в АВТОЗАГРУЗКЕ
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95/98/NT
Having problems trying to find those programs that load but are not in your
startup folder? Try looking in the registry. Run Regedit and look in
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, Software, Microsoft, Windows, Current Version, Run or Run
service. This is where things like system agent, NetMeeting, the active movie
check and other such things hang out.
Недокументированный запуск exe & COM файлов при перед стартом Windows
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95/98/NT
How many of you may want to run special commands in your system_s boot
sequence, and you are afraid to put them in the Autoexec.bat, because your end
users might alter them. Any end user with a good working knowledge of Windows
Explorer can alter your startup files (Autoexec.bat, config.sys) even if you
mark them read only, or hiden. Fortunately, there is an undocumented secret tha
you can take advantage of ot protect your startup sequence. The last task
Io.sys performs, after running Config.sys and Autoexec.bat, during boot-up is
to load Windows 95 by executing Win.com command. Here is the catch! You can
create a Win.bat file in the root directory and store special commands you
would normaly include in Autoexec.bat. Since batch files take precedence over
command files, windows will load Win.bat instead of Win.com. Once you add your
special commands, at the end add the Win.com command to load Windows 95 upon
completion. IMPORTAND, do not forget to include the .COM extension or the batch
file will enter an infinite loop. Then simple mark it read only and hiden.
Замена иконок на стандартные
----------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
If your Icons look odd/diffrent/wrong delete a file called ShellIconCache,

folder from loading.
Platform: Windows 95
If you have selected the shutdown command and are already viewing the 'You may
shut down your computer' screen, type 'win' then press ENTER to restart your
PC.
Увеличение обьема эффективной памяти
------------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
In the your Windows directory, edit the system.ini file and create a header
that says '[VCache]' (no quotes) and under it put MinFileCache=0 and
MaxFileCache=X. X being what you want the Maximum disk cache to be, in the form
2000 for 2 megs etc.. I recommend 2 megs memory if you have 8-16 megs. and 4
megs if you have over 16 megs. This prevents unneeded disk swapping, because
when your using most of your memory for your disk cache (default with
Windows95), your using your swap file almost right away.
Если ОЗУ больше 32МБ
--------------------
Click the Start button, then Settings, then, Control Panel. In the Control
Panel, click on the System Icon. Once in System, select the Performance tab.
Click on the File System button. Change the machine role to Network Server.
This will drastically enhances the use of upper memory especially in machines
with more than 32MB of RAM.
Эффективное использование памяти
---------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
Speed up Windows by reducing the amount of time it fools around with virtual
memory. Go to Start, Settings, and click on Control Panel. Double click on
System. Note the amount of RAM in your computer. This can be found on the
General tab. Click on the Performance tab and then on the Virtual Memory
button. Windows 95 runs optimally with 16 megs of RAM. If you have 16 megs or
more click on 'Let me specify my own virtual memory settings:'. Put a zero in
the minimum box. Put the amount of RAM you have in the Maximum box. For
instance, if I have 32MB of RAM, I would put '32' in the Maximum box. For those
with less than 16MB, you can speed up your machine by specifying 2 1/2 times
your RAM in the Maximum box (8MB would be 20MB). Click on OK. When the warning
is displayed click on YES. Click on OK and then OK again to restart your
machine.
Ускорение загрузки
------------------
Platform: Windows 95
To speed up the launch of win95, you have to edit your msDOS.sys in c:\.
change the attributes ( attrib -s -h -r) then make a copy of the file, calling
it ie msdos.syd. open notepad, display all files then add the following under
the [options] Logo=0 Bootdelay=0 this makes windows booting without the screen
and boot without delay.
Оптимизации области SWAP-инга
-----------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
You can speed up the performance of you machine by specifying a minimum swap
file size. Go to Control Panel/System (or Alt-double click on the 'My Computer'
icon), then go to the Performance tab and click the 'Virtual Memory...' button.
Click the 'Let me specify my own virtual memory settings.' radio button. Set
the 'Minimum' field to 1 1/2 times the physical RAM in your system (if you have
16MB, set it to 24). Click 'Ok' and ok all the warnings (this is not as
dangerous as Microsoft would have you believe). This will prevent the virtual
memory system from having to allocate pages as soon as you start up; it already
has as many pages allocated as it is likely to use. If you want to ensure that
your swap file is always defragmented, defragment your drive before changing
the settings above; then, after setting the minimum size to 2 times physical
RAM (or more if you have the disk space to spare), set the 'Maximum' to the
same figure. This is equivalent to using the 'Permanent Swap File' option in
Windows 3.X. Note that the sizes recommended here are minimums. If you have
plenty of disk space, you are unlikely to hurt anything by allocating more to
virtual memory. This tip will also prevent you from running out of disk space
unexpectedly when your virtual memory 'swap file' grows while you are working.
Удаление 'ненужных файлов'
---------------------------
Platform: Windows 95/98/NT
Time for a little hard drive Spring cleaning. First, close down all your
running applications. Then, do a search (using Find) for these kinds of files:
GID FTS BAK ~MP TMP Once you've found them, you can delete them. If you're
feeling saucy, you can remove CNT files, too (they're the Table of Contents
data for some HLP files). While you're cleaning house, you should open up your
Temp folder and get rid of the schtuff that's piled up in there.
Печать инф-ии о системе
------------------------
Platform: Windows 95/98/NT
It is a good idea to get your system information on paper incase you ever have
a computer problem where you need to refer to this. Right click on the My
Computer icon and select Properties from the context menu. Click on the Device
Manager tab, then the Print button. Select the 'All devices and system summary'
button, then click on OK. This will give you a print out of information about
your hardware, IRQ's, ports, memory usage, devices and drivers.
Программу SETVER.EXE можно удалить из CONFIG.SYS
------------------------------------------------
Platform: Windows 95
Do you remember your old DOS/WIN31x configuration? I bet that you spent hours
with changing your CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC:BAT files. Everyone of us tried to
get more conventional memory. Now do you remember which 'tool' was erased
first? Right! SETVER.EXE! No one needed this program. Now, why do you load
SETVER.EXE every time you start Windows95? To save precious memory you have to
prevent WIndows95 from loading SETVER.EXE. The SETVER.EXE file is located in
the \WINDOWS directory. Just rename the file to something like SETVER.W95 and
Windows won't load the program again. If there comes the day that you need this
program just rename it again.
