Good to Know - if You have a Windows System
If you have a windows system on your computer, (and these are installed by default, so if you haven’t installed a Linux/unix system you are most likely to have Windows, ie. Windows XP, Vista, or even the old Windows 98), - then you need to know some things to make life easier for you.
You can set up my PC to defragment its hard drive, check for new email, and launch programs automatically. How? Use the tutorial at the Newbie Club to do this. It was simple, easy to understand, and really frees up time for more productive pursuits. That tutorial on automating can get your computer to do some things on its own so you don’t have to “babysit” your computer through the boring tasks.
In fact, if you are wondering how to do certain things on your computer, you will find the Tutorials, just what you need. For instance, do you understand file size, and how that affects your downloading and storage of files? You need the Bits and Bytes page.
