Troubleshooting and Maintaining Your PC All-in-One Desk Reference For Dummies

Most troubleshooting books concentrate on upgrading - and usually hardware at that. This book concentrates on solving problems - whether they're software, hardware, or operating system problems. In addition, Dan offers tools and advice on maintaining your system to maximize its life. Seven minibooks cover:

• Hardware
• Software
• Laptops
• Internet
• Networking
• Maintenance
• Useful Tools

Reader Arron W. Muir says, "I am an above average computer user and this book was still very helpful. The layout is very well done, you just go to the chapter that fits your need without having to read through allot of other stuff to find what you need. I would recommend this book to anyone that wants to save a buck rather than pay a Geek!

This book reflects the handholding, clear explanations, and light humor that are hallmarks of the For Dummies style.
