Microsoft Windows XP Power Pack is geared for the Windows XP working professional or hardcore consumer who is looking to squeeze every last drop of performance from XP Professional. While some basic XP features are covered, that coverage is brief and designed to get you up-to-speed quickly with user interface changes between XP and the version you're currently using. With this book you will manage your Windows XP system efficiently; optimize and fine-tune using native XP tools; network your XP computer with other local computers or across the Internet; edit and repair the XP Registry; and script and automate everyday tasks.

The CD contains a full, licensed version of AutoPilot, as well as free trials of a variety of system administration tools from Sunbelt Software, including mirroring software, event logging apps, scripted logon management tools, user management add-ons and more.
