Product Description
MICROSOFT WINDOWS XP INSIDE OUT 2ND ED
 
Americancivilwar.com
Ed Bott and Carl Siechert have combined their considerable talents for producing user-level documentation in creating Microsoft Windows XP Inside Out. One of the most carefully researched books on Windows XP to date, this large volume has all the information and procedures most everyday users of the operating system will want. With its nicely formatted how-to instructions, detailed documentation of command-line commands, intelligent explanatory text, and broad scope, this book makes a great reference for a family or business that uses Windows XP extensively. Even the illustrations are more helpful than usual, largely because the publisher has gone to the trouble of annotating many of them with pointers and labels.

Bott and Siechert deal with the most controversial features of Windows XP, notably product activation, in a straightforward way. They simply explain what activation is for, tell how to go about it, and move on. If you're a power user interested in getting around activation and performing other unsanctioned hacks, look for your information in online newsletters. This book plays by Microsoft's rules, and that's fine. It's obvious that the authors have had access to Windows XP for some time, and spent a lot of time exploring its new features. Count on this book to explain the complete set of Windows XP's features--even the exciting networking stuff--in terms you can easily follow. --David Wall

Topics covered: Microsoft Windows XP (Professional and Home editions) for home and office users who want to install, use, and run applications. Emphasis is on basic set-up and configuration, hardware installation and modification, file management, multimedia, and networking.

Windows XP Inside/Out
Great Book! I think this book was written not for the beginner but for a more experienced computer user. Some things are simple to understand but others are very detailed. Still, this book can be a big help to anyone that has XP for their running system.
 
Well written but not everthing included
Good book, but not everything is included. There is absolutley nothing on EFS (File Encrytion) which is fairly important. Four stars that could of been Five!
 
Great Book
If you are looking for a book that is not geared to simply passing a test, this is the book for you. It really covers the technology in depth and detail.
 
New to XP, you need this
Having recently upgraded our home computers from Win98 SE to XP SP2, numerous issues emerged viz. hardware and software. This book proved invaluable, especially in getting our multimedia and network functionality back up. For those holding off upgrading, XP is getting harder to find, and you don't want to get stuck having to upgrade to Vista ...
 
Quite Happy
The book I ordered was advertised as being slightly damaged. I have not found the damage yet.
