New page - Troubleshooting Windows - Zero in on the Problem

[Jim Eshelman]

I would like to announce a new page on my web site:

TROUBLESHOOTING WINDOWS
Zero in on the Problem
http://aumha.org/win4/a/tshoot.htm
http://aumha.org/win5/a/tshoot.htm

The page gives ten primary troubleshooting strategies that should be helpful
in a large majority of Windows and application problem situations. In other
words, it's the sort of thing that I personally rely on 80% of the time --
both on the newsgroups and for the 6,000 users I serve at work -- to define
a problem and zero in on what's going on.

Perhaps some of these points will be of value to some of you visiting these
newsgroups looking for answers -- and, maybe even more so, those of you who
are here offering help in finding those answers.

Enjoy!

Did you find this newsgroup on the web? A newsreader like Outlook Express

excellent advice and tips . Am a tad confused on this...

some real confusion, head on over there !

Would you believe that this post just showed up at my end now. My last reply to
it must have been clairvoyant.
