RUNNING WINDOWS NT -- the one-stop, easy-to-use guide to Microsoft' s
state-of-the-art operating system -- is now available in the redesigned
Running series from Microsoft Press.

PC Magazine contributing editor Craig Stinson' s concise tutorials and
hands-on examples bring Windows NT to life. His results-oriented,
step-by-step coverage helps newcomers to Windows NT get up and running
fast--and then sprint beyond the basics. Hundreds of screen shots show
readers exactly what to do. User-friendly icons throughout the book point
out powerful, timesaving features, while power tips provide valuable
insights and helpful shortcuts. It' s the most complete how-to guide
available.

As a reference, RUNNING WINDOWS NT can't be beat. New navigational tools
such as the detailed table of contents and the Chapters at a Glance
feature make it easy for readers to zero in on the information they need.
Sidebars call out advanced topics, and all the information in the book is
thoroughly cross-referenced. Inside the front and back covers are handy
visual references to Windows NT toolbars--perfect for quick lookups. Users
at every level will agree that this is the book to turn to for fast,
expert help. Here's what's covered:

* Windows NT basics--system configuration, using the interface, working
with the built-in applications and accessories, and understanding
operating system features such as OLE and ClipBooks

* Networking--using Microsoft Mail, Schedule+, and shared resources

* Security & Administration--using User Manager and other powerful Windows
NT tools to create user accounts, monitor security, and set levels of
permissions for shared resources

* Optimization--using Performance Monitor to maximize resources and get the
most out of applications

RUNNING WINDOWS NT is the first book in the Microsoft Press Running series
to sport a completely new look from cover to cover. Increased use of
visual elements such as icons and graphics reinforce key points.

index leads readers quickly to information on any topic in the book. Other

3.1; the classic Running MS-DOS, by Van Wolverton; the bestselling Running
