Testimonials
“Check out 'Teach Yourself Visually: Microsoft Windows Vista,' ($24.99) by Paul McFedries. It's filled with illustrations and easy to understand instructions. I like the 'Visually'" series of books because they are great for a skim."
—Eric Benderoff, Chicago Tribune

Teach Yourself VISUALLY Microsoft Windows Vista teaches you the basics (and beyond) of Windows Vista in the familar style of the popular Teach Yourself VISUALLY series: straightforward, step-by-step instructions, with each step illustrated by a full-color screen shot, and each task adorned with beautiful illustrations.

This book covers everything you need to know about Windows Vista, including installing and repairing programs; maintaining your system; setting up password-protected accounts; loading images from a digital camera; managing audio and video with Media Center; securing Internet and e-mail accounts; and much more.
