Book Reviews of Computer Repair with Diagnostic Flowcharts: Troubleshooting PC Hardware Problems from Boot Failure to Poor Performance, Revised Edition

Book Review: Great Book!
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a great book, that pretty much pays for itself.
Easy to understand diagrams, easy to troubleshoot computer problems with.

Of course it helps if you know what your doing. I'm an A+ computer technician, so I already knew
to go in and find these things, but the book is great because it kills your troubleshooting time in half.

The way it thinks is great, it's very straightforward so you can find it, fix it and move on with your life.
If your just starting out as a computer tech, get certified, then get this book. It's great!

A great book for anyone who dosen't want to take it to a tech right away.

I'd recommend this book and purchase it for family members.
