Reviews from Amazon users which were colected at the time this book was published on the website:

⭐I volunteer for a charity that takes donated old PCs from companies, gets them working, and gives them to people who can’t afford to buy computers. I bought the book for ideas. The book was useful; there was lots of stuff I needed reminding about. But it tries to help both people with 386s and people with Pentium IIIs at the same time, and it’s too wide a range. Also, it needs re-editing (e.g. a reference to a serial printer later in the chapter wasn’t there, and there were other minor goofs as well). It probably really needs to be two books: one for fixing up old PCs and one for Pentiums and later.

⭐I just cannot find my copy of this book. With this book, I’ve been brave enough to pop open my computer and install things like a TV-tuner card, more powerful memory cards, cd-burners. People think I’m a computer whiz.Without this book, my new hard drive sits on the shelf for six months. I open my cpu and say, “Looks like I need one of them ribbon thingees. What’s that called?” I’m on Amazon today to buy another copy because I just cannot function otherwise.

⭐There is more in this book about Vista than XP…which is not what I was looking for. But the color pages with installation instructions are a big help for upgrading components.

⭐I love the for dummies books. This is very good, still needs to include really useful things. Like that part about removing viruses with programs, anybody can do that . I’m looking for a way to learn how to remove them by myself , manually. In overall is a good and useful book.

⭐can’t always have a computer repair person handy when you need one so this book book is just the ticket.

⭐Andy’s book gave me the information I needed to get a few more years out of a very old computer.

⭐ok

⭐Badly dated.

⭐A highly informative guide, ideal for anyone facing the ordeal of an upgrade. Anyone balancing the cost of a new PC against upgrading their old one should buy this guide first. It would certainly make the decision easier, and possibly prevent expensive errors.

⭐hard to keep up with technology… not the fault of the writer

⭐The book I bought was out of date

⭐I said it all in my jheadline.

⭐good
