Rating: Summary: A Fabulous Book Review: This book is so full of practical home remedies for a computer I would have paid much more for it. I received it one week ago and already my five-year-old E-Machine is humming like new. I had many annoying problems with my PC and computer techs told me nothing could be done. Just one example.....defragging. I have literally been trying to defrag now for months and it would not complete. Carey gives a process to do it, I tried it and it defragged in twenty minutes!!! Please folks, order this book now and put it on "rush". Tell your friends. You will love it.

Rating: Summary: Makes life simple Review: This book is very well organized and quite easy to comprehend. The procedures are quite easy to follow, and enough background info is given to allow the reader to understand why the suggestions will improve PC performance. How many times have you been reading a "How To" book and said to yourself "Now why didn't I think of that?" If your answer is "never" try reading this book so you can become familiar with the experience. Don't expect in depth technical jargon that will leave your mind in a clutter. This book is more about taking care of one potential problem, then walking over to see if there is something that can be done about the next. Also don't expect to delve deep into the Windows OS and perform major surgery, instead you will find simple common sense approaches to improving the performance of your PC.
Rating: Summary: The Healthy PC Review: This is a good book for people who use PCs and not for hackers. The author goes through in detail on how to clean out all sorts of things one may not need. He addresses file systems and security. When finished, my PC does run faster. What really impressed me was that I ran into two problems; emailed the author and got a helpful response within hours. One problem was changing a FAT32 file system to NTFS-the process asked for the name of the media being changed. The author instructed me how to to a DIR and look on the first line. My second problem could have been my eleminating things or it could have been the installation of a DVD player. At any rate, I could not show photographic files as a slide show. I received a simple set of instructions and I have my slide show back. I recommend the book.
