Planning and preparation

1.1. Computer name, IP, the working group, domain
If a personal computer, a home and had no connection to the network organization, naming it is done randomly. Preferably, the computer name is not equal to the planned registration of the names of users. Usually it is enough to give the name of the owner, with the addition of a PC or suffix to the end of Comp. In an organization called computers usually depending on the computer belonging to a unit or location to simplify the submission of the network and writing technical documentation. If your computer is connected to a network in a large organization or a provider of Internet, it's likely IP address will be automatically assigned, but in smaller organizations typically computer assigned a static IP address. Before installing advised to draw up a list of IP addresses for custom computers, find out the addresses of DNS, DHCP servers, and gateways subnet address (if any). The administrator must explicitly contemplate policies passwords for users to compile instruction (otherwise have to tell each separately), and to draw up a list of passwords to be used for him personally to access various services (login passwords to external mailboxes, forums, FTP-Resources for the programmes of remote control, and `BIOS, etc.) [see 321305].

1.2. Drivers, antivirus library
Until you started to install (reinstall) system, you should check the availability of new device drivers that make up the computer. Usually operating system Windows 2000/XP versions contain proven workable drivers, but more often than not, these drivers provide only basic use of the device's features, while the driver manufacturer of the equipment normally support a number of additional, and sometimes a very important opportunity. Most of the time it refers to the constituent parts related to the expensive models (advanced). Most likely you satisfied with the work built a sound card driver supplied with the system, but for an advanced sound card (such as SB Live! Or SB Audigy) installing the driver from the manufacturer, you will have a large selection of service programs and opportunities for fine tuning of the equipment. Usually, additional features drivers from the manufacturer's demand for 3D graphics cards (support OpenGL), sound cards (setup, loading sound banks), printers (use additional features, such as the layout sheet when printing, scaling). Also, drivers may be required for the new equipment, production of which started recently, following the issuance of the operating system (network equipment, USB2, etc.). A list of equipment for which Windows has been unable to find the driver during installation can be using snap "Office" computer - Utilities / ustroystv.Ustroystva Manager, which is not found will be marked with a driver. Some drivers can be installed later, if they are to be operating system independent, or receipt / write drivers themselves do not occur through the device for which they are needed. A clear example - RAID or SCSI device, the network card. It should be noted that for the professional iron in any case requires the installation of drivers from the manufacturer of the iron. Preferably availability digital signature manufacturer, which guarantees the integrity of the package delivery (though not guaranteed work bessboynuyu driver). To minimize the amount of time during installation and providing maximum anti-virus protection system prior to entry into operation it is desirable to have the latest antivirus library.

1.3. Sets corrections system integration
Before installing the operating system is highly desirable stock set of patches from Microsoft. At the time of writing () 2000 released SP3 [see SP3dwn, Installation, Deployment Tools, Hotfix Installation and Deployment Guide, Categorized List of Fixes in Windows 2000 Service Pack 3 (SP3)], SP3PostFix remedy. For Windows XP operating system also has a SP1 [see Also 312646, 328874, C33676, Microsoft Windows XP Hotfix Installation and Deployment Guide, Categorized List of Fixes in Windows XP Service Pack 1 (SP1)] and a number of corrections. Separately may go fixes for Internet Explorer / Outlook Express, they must also be downloaded.

To create an integrated package Windows 2000/XP, create a folder on your hard drive (like d: winnt), and copy the contents of the original CD distribution from Microsoft. Run Service Pack updates with the-x. Specify the path to extract the contents of the package (eg d: sp). Launch of the directory that you specified for extracting d: spi386updateupdate.exe with the-s: d: winnt where key-s indicates the location of the distribution. Will be produced integrating the service pack files in a copy of the installation package.

PostFix packages, which are corrected, and will consist of the following service pack, can be converted into a separate folder on the network resource, which will be installation, or installation CD. Write BAT file, which list all the packages of corrections, including Internet Explorer. Corrections for IE should be at the bottom of the list because require rebooting. For the batch introduction of corrections applied QChain utility, which is finalizing a list of corrections system. Keys packages corrections preclude restart the machine after each package and cancel the withdrawal of queries on the screen. [Microsoft Download Center, Catalog product updates Microsoft to select and download packages administrator] The existence of established and the healthy corrections (including network) checked QFECheck utility. The lack of the necessary updates (including network) checked utilities HFNetChk (console), Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer (MBSA), Shavlik QuickInspector [see Also SPCheck, Microsoft Security Web Site].

For some programs require a Java machine. For more information, see Microsoft Technologies for Java.

Example batch file to add supplements UPDATE.BAT Windows XP without the package and SP1 (for a list, you can create a command DIR / b / on> UPDATE.BAT tentatively has to be installed IE 6 SP1, read carefully the description of the update packages that appears when you hover in the room Updates mouse, download and install the required files), a chronology of releases update packages and their descriptions can be viewed at HotFix & Security Bulletin Service.
