WINDOWS 2000 PRO: THE MISSING MANUAL
Ouvrage 9780596000103 : WINDOWS 2000 PRO: THE MISSING MANUAL
According to Microsoft, Windows 2000 Pro combines the friendly interface
of Windows 98 with the famous stability of Windows NT. Windows 2000, the
successor to NT, introduces many technologies that weren't available in
NT, including Plug-and-Play, support for USB devices, power management
features, and more. It's 25% faster than Windows 98 and three times as
stable. Unfortunately, despite all the enhancements, Microsoft forgot to
address one of NT's most glaring omissions: Windows 2000 doesn't include
a printed user's manual.
In Windows 2000 Pro: The Missing Manual, bestselling Windows NT author
Sharon Crawford provides the friendly, authoritative book that should
have been in the box. It's the ideal (and desperately needed) users'
guide for the world's most popular corporate operating system.
The book begins at the beginning: with a guide to what's new (for former
NT users), a tour of the Desktop, and logging into the network.
(Virtually all Windows 2000 users are on a network.) A special focus:
organizing files, folders, and windows for maximum efficiency and
minimum clutter. Detailed guidance for installing, removing, and
troubleshooting new software and hardware comes next.
More advanced chapters explore basic networking and Internet survival,
including an excellent, step-by-step handbook for setting up a
peer-to-peer network without having to hire a consultant, and chapters
on configuring and using the Web (Internet Explorer), email (Outlook
Express), and the built-in fax software. The final part of the book
covers Windows 2000's local-management options: security, user profiles,
backing up, and so on--all crowned by a beefy troubleshooting guidebook.
Like the other books in the Missing Manual line, Windows 2000 Pro: The
Missing Manual offers superb writing, special features for both absolute
novices and power users, and offers authoritative, complete coverage of
its subject. Windows 2000 Pro doesn't come with a manual-but if it did,
Windows 2000 Pro: The Missing Manual would be it.
