Wiley PC's All-In-One For Dummies 6th Edition 2013

Each of the nine minibooks in this desk reference squarely addresses a spe-
cific topic, and there’s no need to read this whole book in a front-to-back
fashion. You certainly can, if you like, but it’s not necessary. Instead, each
minibook (and on a lower level, each individual chapter) is self-contained.
That is, you can jump from chapter to chapter to pursue information about
what you’re working on right now — happy in the knowledge that when
you decide to invest in an external hard drive (or a scanner or a memory
upgrade) and you need help with installation, it’s covered!

Wiley Networking For Dummies 9th Edition 2010

This isn’t the kind of book you pick up and read from start to finish, as if it

were a cheap novel. If I ever see you reading it at the beach, I’ll kick sand in

your face. This book is more like a reference, the kind of book you can pick

up, turn to just about any page, and start reading. It has 30 chapters, each

one covering a specific aspect of networking — such as printing on the net-

work, hooking up network cables, or setting up security so that bad guys

can’t break in. Just turn to the chapter you’re interested in and start reading.

Wiley Do-It-Yourself Upgrading and Fixing Computers For Dummies 2010

Upgrading and Fixing Computers Do-It-Yourself For Dummies. Aimed
at people who want to upgrade to Windows 7 or prepare their computers for the
latest technology, this book walks you through several tasks:
✓ Step-by-step tasks walk you through installation and repair chores, with a
photo or illustration at almost every step.
✓ A new emphasis on how to find and choose the right part for your computer.
✓ An updated visual appendix that explains how to recognize all the ports on
your computer and add any ports you may need.
✓ A network installation guide in Chapter 15 helps you configure a network with
both wired and wireless devices.
✓ Chapter 18 provides details on installing or upgrading to Windows 7 — even
onto a newly upgraded hard drive.
✓ Computer parts need drivers — special software that helps Windows
understand how to talk with them. Without a proper driver, Windows 7 can’t
talk to some parts of your computer. Chapter 17 explains when you need new

drivers, where to find them, and how to install them successfully.

Wiley Do-It-Yourself Build Your Own PC For Dummies 2009

You’ll find that each chapter in this book acts as a reference for each type of com- puter hardware that you can add to your computer; some are required components, and others are optional devices that add extra functionality to your PC. You can start at any point each chapter is self-contained. The book also includes a glossary of computer terms and an appendix about what’s on the DVD in the back of this book. 

Each chapter also provides the general information you need to make a buying decision between different flavors of the same component. For example, in Chapter 10, I discuss both bare-bones and advanced sound cards (without resorting to engineer- speak). If you’re interested in buying and installing a particular component, such as a DVD drive or a video adapter card, you can jump directly to the chapter that describes the device and start reading. 

Most chapters end with general instructions that familiarize you with the installation process. (They don’t replace the specific documentation that accompanies each component, although the generic steps that I provide give you an idea of what’s involved.) On the other hand, if you’re interested in building a computer from scratch, start with Chapter 1 and follow the chapters in order; you can also skip to other chapters whenever necessary for information that you might need.
