Product Description

What? You computer crashed again. You were told the cost of repairs to restore it will be $250. Yikes. You know you don't have that kind of money. So what do you do?

Repair it yourself. But how? I don't know anything about computers. Well now you can. Why spend months in a classroom to learn computers when you can learn all about them in the comfort of your own home.

This book does what no other book on the market has done. It teaches you about every part of a computer, how it works, how to diagnose and repair it when it doesn't, and how to install it. Plus, here is an added incentive. While you are reading this book, you are also studying for the A+ certification exam, at the same time.

Each chapter has self-evaluation and sample A+ test questions for you to go over and review. Also, each chapter, except the first and last, have assignments you can perform to reinforce your training.

The book is designed so you can take one chapter a week. This way by the time 15 weeks rolls around, you will be ready to take the A+ exam. If you look at the back of the book, I also include well over 100 practice A+ test questions to help you. Chapter 15 also provides you with a link and information as to how to register for the test.

Why spend large amounts of money taking classes, having to commute to schools, or even spend money on repairs. Do it yourself and save. I will even be glad to provide support if necessary. All you have to do is send me email and I will respond.

If your looking for a PC Repair book that is both detailed and understandable this one is it. Learn How to Repair Computers addresses all aspects of PC repair in a format that assists the reader to not only learn PC repair but also prepares them for A+ certification as well all under one cover. I don't know of any other book that not only trains you to repair computers but also assists you in getting A+ certification. A highly recognized standard in the PC repair industry. A+ to Harry Husted. A great book!
Great Book!

This book covers all aspects of computer repair. Husted really knows what he's talking about. For the beginner or experienced repair person, this book is an invaluable resource.
The book is technical, but it is also easy to read.

This book wasted my time.

Reviewer: Badger, Morning View, KY
I found this book from an online course for getting the A+ certification. As I studied it I found inaccuracies. Some of the practice tests even have wrong answers when aligned with actual study text. The book rambles on and on about history and theory but gives little information needed to pass the A+ exams. I enjoyed the computer facts but I spent my money to learn the technical aspects of computers and prepare for the A+ exams. This was a major waste of my time that I needed to spend on getting my A+ certification.
Frustrating and outdated

Reviewer: Donald P. Gagnon, Rhode Island, USA
It is truly hard to understand why this book is even still in print. It doesn't even have information on OSs dating back to XP, much less anything on current wireless technology. If you are looking for a boring book on the past or have a yen to work on antiquated PCs, then this is for you. If you are even remotely serious about learning current technology and doing sound diagnostic repair, then save your money and look elsewhere. Giving it just one star was being generous!
