This new edition of our popular Windows 95 For Dummies Quick Reference is written specifically for the latest upgrade version of Microsoft's Windows 95, known among technically-minded insiders as OEM2. Users of older Windows 95-based systems will find this book equally useful. Each aspect of Windows 95 -- from cutting and pasting to using the Windows program's automated Wizards -- is broken down into its three basic parts: How Do I Do It, When Do I Do It, and More Stuff. Short, sweet, and straight to the point...hallmarks of our Quick Reference books!
The content in this quickie guide to Windows 95 is also cross-referenced with our best-selling Windows 95 For Dummies, 2nd Edition, to make moving back and forth between books easier, whether you need fast answers or more detailed explanations.
