PC and Windows Sites are plentiful in the Internet.

Begin with About.com's Windows site which can lead you in several 
directions:

http://windows.about.com/

~~

Windows-Help.net is a wonderful site full of great tips and guides:

http://www.windows-help.net/

~~

Fix-Windows is another great site

http://www.fixwindows.com/

~~

Bud's Troubleshooter is a very thorough Windows site:

http://www.geocities.com/~budallen/

~~

Let's not forget that "The Big Three" as I call them, which are all 
rich in PC and Windows guides and tutorials.  I am speaking of ZDNet, 
CNET and Internet.com:  

http://www.zdnet.com/

http://www.cnet.com/

http://www.internet.com/

You should explore each of those sites.

~~

Make your best use of the Microsoft Knowledge Base and Support 
services:

http://search.support.microsoft.com/kb/c.asp



Okay, after you have collected all those guidances and tips and 
tricks, you probably have questions.  You need forums to present your 
questions in hopes someone can answer them.

The PC Guide site not only has great tutorials, it has several forums 
related to PCs:

http://www.pcguide.com/forums

~~

32bit.com, a great shareware site, also has some great forums.

http://www.32bit.com/

~~

The Winguides site can provide you more online forums:

http://forums.winguides.com/



USENET can provide you an abundance of helpful forums.  Start with 
the many microsoft newsgroups.  The following page at MS will not 
only list the MS newsgroups, but provide you a gateway to post to 
them:

http://communities.microsoft.com/newsgroups/default.asp

Check out the comp.* hierarchy of newsgroups, too.

If you do not have a news server with your ISP, then make use of 
www2usenet gateway services such as Google Groups:

http://groups.google.com/

~

And lastly, don't forget my favorite forum...the email discussion 
mailing list.

As it happens, I have an autoresponder with a listing of recommended 
"PCHelp" type mailing lists.  To receive this listing, send a blank 
message addressed to:  

[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Two e-mail lists to recommend here:

PC-ASK. Low volume list, but helpful.

send e-mail to:  [EMAIL PROTECTED] with subscribe pc-ask in
the message body.

Win95-L, Win98-L, WinNT-L: (The WinNT list covers Windows 2K, and the
Win98-L list covers WindowsME)

send e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with subscribe (listname) 
in
the message body.

I've been a member of the Win95/Win98 list for many years and there are
some VERY smart people there. I learned a lot about Windows there.
