    About this ebook

    If you are a master computer connoisseur, this e-book is not for you. BUT if you are a standard Windows PC user who has, at one time or another, wanted to drop-kick your PC out the window because you couldn't figure out why it wasn't cooperating, this e-book is just what you need to have on hand!
    Common computer troubleshooting can be confusing and incredibly frustrating for the average PC user. Although there are a variety of “self-help” books out there to assist with assessing and correcting operational issues, they can be expensive and exhaustive, containing far more information than what is needed. And trying to comprehend the intense technical lingo can almost make one go cross-eyed.
    This guide is short and simple to understand. It is by no means a fix-it-all instruction manual, but it does cover some of the most common issues the everyday user might encounter. I offer concise instructions and straightforward, easy-to-understand information that will make computing less frustrating and more enjoyable.
    Whether you have power issues or you just don't understand what is going on with your PC, this e-book will give you answers and information on what you need to know to get back on track.
