About the Book

The "An Instant" series provides fast, focused, visual learning on core tasks. This compact, concise, guide shows visual learners how to get up and running on the core program features in Windows XP. The book covers the most popular features of Windows XP, including the new user-friendly interface; enhanced Start menu with visual clues and listing of most visited apllication; My Pictures, a tool for organizing, viewing, and printing digital images; My Music, a digital music organizer that lets the user view his/her music catalogue by artist, album, track number, or album cover; and Media Player 8, a combo DVD, video, and music player. There are also step-by-step instructions and consistent placement of elements that make fast learning of essential Windows XP tasks. The book uses the largest high-resolution screen slots of any book in the Visual series - with the Visual learning system adapted to the smaller trim size using "V-flow", a vertical flow (from top to bottom), and icons provide visual navigational tools for the user.
