If you have Windows XP on your computer, you'll wantWindows XP: Visual QuickStart Guideon your bookshelf-it's as simple as that. Even veteran Windows users will quickly discover that the changes in Windows XP go far beyond a radically redesigned interface. And to get the most out of this powerful new operating system-including all of its bundled software and goodies-there's no place better to start than the straightforward, task-oriented approach of Peachpit's popularVisual QuickStartseries. In this volume, veteran authorChris Fehilygets right down to business, covering both Home and Professional versions of Microsoft's redesigned operating system in this single edition. After a thorough introduction to the new interface, chapters cover topics such as installing and removing programs; working with documents, accessories, and multimedia; going online; printing; hardware issues; maintenance; and more. Along the way you'll find plenty of screen shots and other graphic aids to acclimate you to all that's new in Microsoft's operating system, as well as the types of undocumented tips and tricks that can only be gleaned from hard-won experience-the author's, not yours!

This book is really great for someone with limited computer experience. It very clearly explains how to do all that good stuff in XP. I highly recommend this book for those wishing to know how to get the most from one's computer.

An Excellent Resource.

Simple, concise, to the point, very easy to follow. Several times this book has helped me to find something in 2 minutes that would have taken me 1/2 hr or more trying to figure it out myself. A great time-saver and headache-preventer. Grab it.
