Windows Me光盘内容一探究竟
尽管Windows千禧版的问世并不曾象Windows2000发售时那样群情激动,但据有关方面预测,该款以个人电脑为对象的升级产品在九月份正式销售时,业绩极有可能迅速超过Windows2000。如
果,很有幸,您正是购买人群中的一员,而又急欲知道微软千里迢迢运来的千禧版中到底有点儿什么东东,不用着急,就让我们来一探究竟,这可是对Windows千禧版光盘内容的独家首报噢。
今年6月底我收到的光盘是供评估用的赠阅版,类似于其他光碟的技术Beta版。尽管如此,它在内容方面与零售的版本相比却分文不少。不过,值得注意的是,Windows千禧版与2000版不同,它并没有磁碟。
Windows千禧版光盘根目录中包括以下子目录和文件:
\add-ons – 包括介绍性文件,网络打印协议支持文件,微软后备文件以及终端服务委托人。
\autorun – 包括放入光碟后自动执行的所有文件。

setuptip.txt - Windows千禧版增补信息文件。
接下来,让我们看看每一个子目录:

\Document – 包括多种介绍性文件,如Read Me文件,迅速上手指南,和硬盘文本文件包,用以解释Windows千禧版无法正常安装的各种原因。
\IPP – 包括网络打印协议(IPP)文件,从而可允许千禧版系统连上2000版网络进行网络打印。
\MSBackup – 包括微软的各种后备文件,没有它,将无法进入Windows千禧版(也就是说,微
软将基于某种原因拒绝您在Add/Remove Programs中进行安装)。
\Tsclient – 包括Windows千禧版各类兼容用户的支持文件。

irdasir.reg – 注册文件,用来启动外接式红外设备的安装功能。
nnt.inf – 从注册表中删除NAMENUMERICALTAIL值,该值控制着创建短文件名的功能。
pssutil.txt – 一项Read Me文件,用来解释该文件夹中众多工具文件。
ptxt_on.inf, ptxt_off.inf – 判别密码是否以默认值的状态传上网络服务器。

winme.wmv - Windows千禧版初次安装完毕后执行的媒体播放文件。
和Windows 98与Windows 98 SE光碟版比较,Windows千禧版似乎在很多地方有所不足,这令人很想不通。 打个比方,Windows千禧版不会附带特别的资源工具包,因而,光碟上并没有RK文件。和Windows 98 SE版一样,Windows千禧版并没有包含TweakUI程序的复制文件,这个文件非常重要。但令人欣慰的是,微软在不久之后,将很快把相应的工具文件安放在其网站之上。
### Exploring the Contents of the Windows Me CD
Although the release of Windows Millennium Edition did not arouse as much excitement as the launch of Windows 2000, relevant parties predict that this upgrade product aimed at personal computers is very likely to quickly outperform Windows 2000 when it goes on formal sale in September. If, fortunately, you are one of the buyers and are eager to know what exactly is in the Millennium Edition that Microsoft has brought all the way, don't worry. Let's explore it together. This is an exclusive first report on the contents of the Windows Millennium Edition CD.
The CD I received at the end of June this year is an evaluation preview version, similar to the technical Beta version of other optical discs. Even so, there is no difference in content compared with the retail version. However, it is worth noting that Windows Millennium Edition, unlike the 2000 version, does not have floppy disks.
The root directory of the Windows Millennium Edition CD includes the following subdirectories and files:
\add-ons – Includes introductory files, network printing protocol support files, Microsoft backup files, and terminal services clients.
\autorun – Includes all files that are automatically executed when the CD is inserted.
\cdsample – Includes interactive sample files of Microsoft products
\drivers – Includes DVD drivers, ISDN device drivers, MODEM drivers, NETGEAR network product drivers, and FLASH storage device drivers.
\tools – Includes some old MS-DOS tools and a large number of Microsoft Product Support Services (PSS) tools, such as bug reporting tools for DOS and Windows.
\win9x – Includes the Windows Millennium Edition installation files.
autorun.inf – Makes the SETUP.EXE file automatically execute when the Windows Millennium Edition CD is inserted into the optical drive.
readme.txt – A short text file used to indicate other important text files on the CD.
setup.exe – An icon-type installation file (\win9x\setup.exe), which can only be executed under Windows.
setuptip.txt - Windows Millennium Edition supplement information file.
Next, let's take a look at each subdirectory:
\add-ons
\Document – Includes various introductory files, such as Read Me files, quick start guides, and hard disk text file packages, which explain various reasons why Windows Millennium Edition cannot be installed normally.
\IPP – Includes network printing protocol (IPP) files, which allow the Millennium Edition system to connect to the Windows 2000 version network for network printing.
\MSBackup – Includes various backup files of Microsoft. Without it, you will not be able to enter Windows Millennium Edition (that is, Microsoft will refuse your installation in Add/Remove Programs for some reason).
\Tsclient – Includes support files for various compatible users of Windows Millennium Edition.
\autorun – Includes autorun.exe and win9xcd.ico files, the latter is an autorun support file.
\cdsample
sampler.exe – This file is used to install or execute CD sample files. Of course, it also needs a large number of other supporting files and folders.
\drivers
\dvd – Includes Cinemaster 1.2 DVD decoder driver.
\isdn – Includes Eicon Diva ISDN device driver.
\Modem – Includes MWAVE modem drivers for IBM ThinkPad 600, 600E, 770X and 770Z.
\net – Includes drivers for Netgear FA310TX network interface card (NIC).
\Storage – Includes the driver of TrueFFS-9x, which is the latest version of the TrueFFS Flash file system, which is applied to Intel, AMD, Fujitsu, M-Systems and compatible Linear Flash cards.
\tools
\oldmsdos – Includes old MS-DOS tool files, such as MS-DOS help file (help.com), Microsoft diagnostic file (msd.exe), and Qbasic.
\pssutils – Includes a large number of Microsoft Product Support Services (PSS) files, which include:
\mediatst – Three media files for testing the sound playback function.
acpihct.exe – ACPI hardware compatibility test file (HCT), requiring an ACPI-compatible computer.
cdinfo.exe – Used to restore information of the optical disc driver.
DOSREP.EXE - MS-DOS reporting tool, used to create and submit bug reports. The report includes information about your computer system settings and computer files.
ipac_off.inf, ipac_on.inf – Activate or eliminate the TCP/IP automatic configuration function.
irdasir.reg – Registration file, used to start the installation function of the external infrared device.
nnt.inf – Delete the NAMENUMERICALTAIL value from the registry, which controls the function of creating short file names.
pssutil.txt – A Read Me file used to explain the numerous tool files in this folder.
ptxt_on.inf, ptxt_off.inf – Determine whether the password is transmitted to the network server in the default value state.
readme.txt – Read Me file for acpihct.exe.
remfdma.inf, addfdma.inf - Activate or eliminate the FDMA function on the PCI-ISA bridge device.
winrep.exe – Windows reporting file tool, used to create and submit bug reports. The report includes information about your computer system settings and computer files.
wmremove.inf – Used to fix problems with specific types of Winmodems after upgrading to Windows Millennium Edition.
\ols – Includes installation files for America Online (AOL 5.0) and AT&T network services.
cleanhd.txt – Text file, guiding how to install Windows Millennium Edition on an empty hard disk.
intl.txt - Read Me file, for computer settings in the pan-European region.
oemsetup.exe – Installation program provided to personal computer manufacturers, not for end users.
setup.exe - Windows Millennium Edition installation program, which can be run in Windows 9x or MS-DOS.
setup.txt – Text file, recording general installation problems, as well as MS-DOS installation, root directory cleaning, and other installation-related problems.
winme.wmv - Media playback file executed after the initial installation of Windows Millennium Edition is completed.
Compared with the Windows 98 and Windows 98 SE CD versions, Windows Millennium Edition seems to be insufficient in many places, which is very confusing. For example, Windows Millennium Edition will not come with a special resource toolkit, so there are no RK files on the CD. Like the Windows 98 SE version, Windows Millennium Edition does not contain the copied file of the TweakUI program, which is very important. But fortunately, Microsoft will soon place the corresponding tool files on its website.
