Really cleans up
I found this book excellent for these reasons:
- It explains what XP does, to the level you need.
- It provides things you can do if you are timid about computers on up to if you are knowledgeable and macho.
- It warns about when you need to think first
- It warns about things to be avoided, definitely avoided
- It recommends both hardware and software aids, in addition to what you can do within XP
- It is fun and educational and has ultra clear instructions

Cleaning Windows XP For Dummies
Most of the things in this book are on the tutorial that comes on your computer, for basic maintenance. As far as the registry cleaning program, that it suggested to run, I seen no improvement in the speed. It also cost $30 to find that out. The book should also only be about 10 pages long and cost about $3, if you delete all the content that has nothing to do with a computer.

Cleaning Windows XP for Dummies
This is an excellant book for keeping your computer in tip top condition,
you should have some knowledge of computers, and really should read most of the book, before starting this project, it has to be done in stages.
This should be given out with every NEW computer

Book Ok, but beware of recommendations
There are lots of tips and resources to make windows XP run faster and to clean the harddrive.

Unfortunately one of the recommended programs for doing most of the things for you is System Mechanic (do not forget to read all the comments for this software in Amazon -at the moment 20 ratings with one star for the version 7- I wish I had read them prior to use it) which made my windows work worse than before and broke most of links of programs with the System Registry.

Good Luck.
