When you have a question about how to do something in Windows XP, you can usually find the answer with a few clicks of your mouse. The Microsoft Help and Support Center is a resource of information, training, and support to help you learn and use Windows XP. Help and Support is like a book stored on your computer with additional links to the Internet, complete with a search feature, an index, and a table of contents to make finding information easier. If you have an Internet connection, you can get online help from a support professional at Microsoft or from other users on the Windows newsgroup (an electronic form where people share information), or you can invite a friend to chat with you, view your screen, and work on your computer to provide remote support.
