Excellent resource for exam or power users

The Windows 98 exam is very tough with lots of simulation and scenario questions. Sams book on MCSE Windows 98 is an excellent book to learn the more advanced topics needed for the exam. I though I knew a lot about Windows 98 after using it for a few years until I read this book. The exam is heavy on using Windows 98 as a client in a Windows NT4.0 or Novell domain. You must learn everything in the network properties dialog box to pass the exam and the book does a good job on this with lots of diagrams and hands on exercises. Other important topics covered well are TCP/IP setup including DHCP & WINS, file systems, installing, boot sequence, dial up networking, registry, printer installing/control, hardware and user profiles, network neighborhood, browser functions (using netbios broadcasts), and system policies. Everthing you need to pass is in this book, however for an extra margin of safety I recommend investing in Exam Cram also. The test questions in Sams book are helpful, but the ones in Exam Cram do a better job of telling if you know your stuff enough to take the exam. The writing style of the author is enjoyable with lots of important points boxed off for emphasis and easy review later. I also recommend the book to anyone who just wants to learn a lot more about advanced topics of Windows 98.

Outstanding BOOK!

This book is a must for those that wish to pass the Microsoft Windows 98 Exam. It is true that I`ve read Microsoft MOC too, but I could say this book had almost 90% of what the exam required me to pass. I passed with a 890 grade and I thank God first and then this book. Passing the exam was a breeze...

As good as it gets

If you are planing to take a MCSE exam in Windows 98 this is the book should get. It holds all the information you need and is very easy to read. I passed with 930 point out of 1000 using this book.

Best Book Ever!!!

Perfect book for this test. I own 2 other books, they were good but does not compare to this book. This is all you need. The book covers the exam object perfectly and it's extremely easy to read. This book does not waste your time on stuff you don't need to know. TRUST ME!! passed the exam on my first try with a 818 (studied only 14 days).

All you need!!

I read this book and The win 98 resource book and Microsofts Windows 98 training book , after passing the I realized that all you really needed to read was this book . The test, tests you on alot more than just the OS , you need a general knowledge of networking,(NT and Novell),printers, TCP/IP etc.etc... This book covers it all I highly recommend it!!!
