Firstly, I don't like the Author's writing style. More importantly, as someone who feels that Win95 is fighting me every step of the way, this book didn't turn out to be an ally. I installed DriveSpace, and it went pear-shaped, no info on how to stop it from retrying everytime I rebooted. And no warning that this might happen. I eventually worked it out for myself. I also tried to set up direct cable connection, when I ran it an additional dialog box appeared requesting the host name. This was not covered in the book so I emailed their tech support. 2 Months later they replied asking for the exact title & ISBN. I replied. They obviously didn't read the bit where I described what was happening because they just pasted in the relevant, wrong, section from the book. Some parts are fine, but when I really *needed* it, it let me down. If I could find the receipt I would test how true their money back guarantee is.
Format:Paperback
The book is very complete in detail. it's convienient to use as a reference. LOTS of info and LOTS of references to Peter Norton and his computer habits. It's a bit scary to read how many times a day Peter runs scan disk. He rules his PC's and this book with an Iron Glove.
Format:Paperback
I purchased this book to enable me to learn the nitty gritty of Windows 95 for troubleshooting and configuration purposes; it does NOT fulfil this requirement. Every time I look up a topic, I find possibly 1 reference with no elaborate explanation of how it fits in the big picture or related topics. I had also expected better coverage of the Registry. It DOES however provide an informative look at Windows 95 with tips, and is well written.
