This handy, quick reference book contains
concise solutions and instructions for using
Windows XP and solving common problems.
Authored by Windows expert Shelly O'Hara
(the author of over 100 computer books),
the book is well-organized and full of
great advice and tips. The book is full of short
lessons that are designed to last ten minutes or less.
The lessons cover subjects like navigating folders,
searching for documents, adding a printer,
setting up your email account, browsing the Internet,
using a scanner, sending a fax, customizing the desk
top, uninstalling programs, using disk tools and home
networking.
This guide is best suited for users who already have
some knowledge of the Windows environment. It
might appeal most to users upgrading from an earlier
version of Windows that do not need or want a large
textbook to teach them how to accomplish tasks they
are already familiar with. The book focuses on the
most common Windows XP tasks -- for more complex
procedures, a more detailed reference will be required.
10 Minute Guide to Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition is available for purchase on
