It's here - the newest upgrade to the popular Windows operating system for PCs around the globe. Whether you're a newcomer to Windows or are just upgrading from Windows 95, 98 or ME, here's an all-in-one-reference guide to all things XP. It includes mastering the basics and troubleshooting.
Windows XP is the most powerful of Microsoft's Windows software -- software that's been updated many times since starting to breathe in January 1985. XP is short for Experience, but Microsoft calls it Windows XP to give it a more modern--day, "at--this--happening--moment" sound. Someday, sometime, something in Windows XP will eventually leave you scratching your head. No other program brings so many buttons, bars, and babble to the screen. Windows XP For Dummies is for everyone who has a clue about what they want to do with their computers. Bypassing the technical hoopla, this friendly reference comes to the rescue when Windows XP stumps you or when you're feeling spunky and want to dig into deeper details of the ever--popular operating system.
In either case, you can expect to pick up information on Finding the file you saved or downloaded yesterday Moving those little windows around on the screen with the mouse Making Windows XP run like your older versions of Windows Starting and closing programs by clicking the mouse button Making Windows XP work again when it's misbehaving Beginning with the basics, this book explains all the Windows XP stuff that everybody thinks they already know -- until the program starts tossing them stumbling blocks. Windows XP For Dummies clears the way to Navigating the new Start menu and taskbar with ease Setting up a secure Internet connection Having a good time with digital photos, music, and videos Personalizing XP for each member of your family Fixing common problems using System Restore and online resources Most people meet up with Windows XP by something other than choice. Their new computer probably came with a version already installed; maybe the workplace introduced a Windows XP update; or perhaps the latest version of their favorite program required Windows XP.
Any in case, Windows XP For Dummies helps you adjust easily to the new Windows kid in town -- and even enjoy his company!
