电脑ghost是什么意思（详细解释及常见问题解答）

Welcome back to the Wuji Temple! Starting from this issue, we will begin the tutorial on installing and operating Windows from scratch.

This time, first of all, we will share the zero-based knowledge.

This was originally a series of video tutorials. After being published, many friends liked it very much. Some friends mentioned that the language speed is too fast and needs to be slowed down. To control the video duration, I usually clip the pauses in the middle. Now, I will also post the text version for your reference. For friends who feel the video is too fast, you can also refer to the text version.

What is a Windows system image?

To install the operating system, we first need a Windows system carrier, and then we can install it on the computer. The carrier is called the system image. As the name suggests, we can simply understand it as encapsulating a series of files in a mirror. The advantage of this is that it integrates a large number of files into one file, reducing the volume, making it easy to store, copy, and transfer. However, it cannot be used directly. After taking it out of the mirror and installing it on the computer, it releases complete system files, and becomes a usable operating system. The existing system images are roughly divided into two types: one is the original version system image produced by Microsoft, and the other is the ghost image that has been repackaged after modification from the official image.

What is a ghost system image?

On the Internet, we can download various types of systems, such as Tomato Garden, Depth, Computer staff installation, and Radish System, etc. However, these so-called systems are mostly modified by businesses or network experts from the official system produced by Microsoft, which is the so-called ghost system. A ghost system indicates a version that clones the installed operating system using Ghost software.

Advantages of the Ghost system

The advantage of the Ghost system is only one, that is, it is simple and rude. In the process of encapsulating the system, the author integrates various drivers, patches, and software. It can be said to be a one-click idiotic installation. During the installation process, there is no need to set too much. After installation, it does not require manual patching and software installations. If the computer is configured properly, it basically takes eight minutes to install a system, and after installation, it can be used. So it is also deeply loved by the majority of computer city and installation staff.

Disadvantages of the Ghost system

The disadvantages of the Ghost system are much more than the advantages.

First of all, in terms of system stability, it is not as stable as the original installation. During use, there will be unpredictable problems such as blue screen and crash.

Secondly, most of the ghost systems on the market now integrate a large number of bundled software, which will affect the running speed and greatly affect the user experience. The reason behind this lies in benefits – the author cooperates with the software. For each software installed on the computer, he will receive several dollars in return. In order to increase revenue, the author will try to integrate as many cooperative software as possible during the system encapsulation process. But it is difficult to uninstall these software, some of which can be uninstalled and some of them are not.

Finally, the most serious drawback is that some unscrupulous elements will make some malicious modifications when encapsulating the system, such as bundling the homepage, modifying the default search engine, and embedding viruses and Trojans, which will not only affect the user experience but also cause a great impact on our information security.

Of course, there are still some conscience ghost system production teams. Earlier, companies like Rainforest and Depth were all conscience teams, but after the copyright events of Tomato Garden, these conscience teams have gradually disappeared, and it is now difficult to find high-quality ghost systems that can be downloaded from the internet, regardless of the logo pasted on it. So, it is recommended here that for safety reasons, try not to download and install ghost systems at will.

What is the official original image of Microsoft?

After Microsoft releases a new version of the Windows operating system, its ultimate goal is to be sold in the market. It will be distributed in complete official image files through the sale of serial numbers, and users will install the system through the official instructions and buy the genuine serial number to obtain the copyright and usage rights. This is how the official original image of Microsoft Windows comes into being.

Advantages of the official Microsoft system image

Since it is an official image, the biggest advantage is naturally pure, clean, and without any bundled software. When installing it, you don’t have to worry about it bringing any security problems, and its compatibility does not need to be considered. If after installing the original system, your computer still gets a blue screen, it can only be a hardware problem (of course, excluding software compatibility during the later use period).

Disadvantages of the official Microsoft system image

When Microsoft releases the operating system, it will only release one image file for each version of the system, and later vulnerability repairs will be solved through patches. Only in the case of major updates will a new system image file be released. Therefore, it will cause more and more patches after the system is released, and the image file we download is still the original image file. After installing the system, it will undergo a long patch update period.

Secondly, due to the rapid renewal of hardware, Microsoft's official image will only integrate the hardware drivers that existed at the time of release. If your hardware is relatively new, there will be no matching drivers integrated in the image file. Before installing the system, you need to prepare the hardware driver yourself. However, now there are many driver installation software, and as long as you prepare the network card driver, you can download and install the driver program online after connecting to the network.

From the above, although the official Microsoft image is more troublesome to install compared to ghost, its advantages are incomparable to ghost. Therefore, we strongly recommend installing the official original image, it will be more reassuring and worry-free to use in the future.
