Have you ever
noticed how there’s never an IT expert on hand when your PC develops
problems? Are you fed up calling premium rate telephone numbers,
simply to be kept waiting for the ‘next available support person’?
Well now you can ditch the support staff and have a Windows XP
Expert sitting right on your desktop in the form of Windows XP MVP.
Windows XP MVP
by John Barnett, Curt Simmons, Alan Simpson and David Dalan, is
written with the home and small business user in mind and is packed
with useful information including helpful personal tips and
professional advice.
The book is
divided into five sections or solutions and covers topics such as:
-
Configuring and
Personalising Windows XP
-
Internet and Networking
with Windows XP
-
Multimedia Solutions
with Windows XP
-
Hacking Windows XP
-
Securing and
Troubleshooting Windows XP
Each topic is
extensively covered with the information being presented in a clear,
non technical, easy to understand format. There is even a chapter in
the Appendix giving the reader a primer on registry editing.
Other chapters
contain information on recovering from crashes, creating Internet
Connections and Wired Networks, scripting, managing local security,
managing disks and drive, using Windows Movie Maker, Windows Media
Player 10 and even translating those elusive Windows error messages.
There are even tips and tricks for speeding up Windows XP.
There are a
host of books available on Windows XP with most targeting the more
technically minded computer user. Windows XP MVP, on the other hand,
doesn’t rely upon a specific knowledge level for the user to
understand its content and put its tips into practice.
While not a
troubleshooting book, per se, Windows XP MVP
is definitely a must have for every Windows XP User. All 696 pages of Windows
XP MVP are packed with expert information, personal tips and
informative sidebars; all written by Authors’ who are experts in
their field. Only Windows XP MVP can supply you with all this expert
advice in one simple to use volume. Make sure you have it at the
side of your pc and you too can have your own personal Windows XP
expert right at your fingertips.
