Customer comments on this selection.
 Never used.
I bought it and have never used it. Compared to ME that I had on my other computer XP has had no problems.
Quick mailing
the book came fater then expected and in great shape - I would recomend this seller
Good Book
If Windows XP is your platform then this book should be located close to your computer. It has a lot of good information in it not only for the novice but for anyone that uses a computer.
 PC Magazine Windows XP Speed Solutions
Helpful but a bit outdated, but still a useful reference guide for those of us still using Windows XP.
 Disappointing waste of money
If you never used XP before, or need to learn how to use something as elementary as Windows XP Disk Clean Up feature, then perhaps this book is for you.
There is far too much space wasted on overly simplistic and obvious elements of XP, things you already know if you have used XP for more than two weeks.
Some of the registry edits that are listed step by step, simply did not work on any of my three machines. Yes they are simple too..but they simply don't work. Deleted Key Values reappear next time you boot up, and this is not dealt with at all.
I can't believe a book that is such a waste of time can get so many rave reviews. I can understand someone taking the time and trouble to post a review if they are disappointed in a product, but how in the world could anyone find a reason to give this waste of time glowing reviews??
Let the buyer beware.
