This is a self-help book for PC consultants, product support personnel and users. The first chapter defines what can go wrong with DOS and PCs, and the rest of the book provides detailed information on how to prepare in advance for these inevitable problems and, if necessary, resolve them. The reader is shown how to install software effectively, manage a hard disk, preserve data through regular back-ups, boost hardware and software performance, purchase hardware products by mail order, watch for viruses and rebuild system software. Special chapters document trouble-shooting scenarios and powerful third-party utilities (such as Mace and Norton) that strengthen DOS' immune system.
