...ASUS X51V Live Update User’s Guide Critique Samuel Adams ENG/221 Jack Bean 2/20/2012 “A manual provides instruction and other information necessary to accomplish something—that is, to solve a problem” (2010). From savvy businessmen to home mechanics, a properly created manual can make the difference between success and failure. User manuals are found with every device we use today and many do their intended job professionally: Solve problems. The online user manual for the ASUS X51V motherboard provides the reader with instructions on how to update the BIOS and Drivers through a program called ASUS Live Update. The manual consists of a numbered list accompanied by an image for each number. While ASUS does succeed in solving the problem provided, the quality of the guide lacking and barely does the job of catering to the reader. Considering the Reader The ASUS Live Update guide was published in 2010, a year after the release of Windows 7, but utilizes Windows XP for their example. While it may unnecessary to include older versions of windows, due to compatibility issues, the reader could be confused by the images if they are using a user interface from Windows Vista or Windows 7. The method for opening the file displayed on the image may be very similar across the Operating Systems but not every user will find this as obvious. In this sense, the images are hindering the user more than they are helping the reader. The author also seems to assume that the reader has knowledge...

...Windows 7 I’ve had the chance to work with most mainstream operating systems that today has to offer and after exploring all the options I feel most satisfied with what Windows 7 has to offer. Whether you’re new to Windows or just upgrading, the benefits of switching are endless, ranging from new features to performance improvements, even the basic appearance. Windows 7 has many advantages over other operating systems. There are different versions that range from business to casual. All have their perks and range to different prices. You can pin programs, and files to the task bar, similar to other operating systems, but hovering your mouse cursor over the file or program in your task bar allows you to get a preview of that program or file. Another feature introduced is Windows snap. It allows you to drag a file to either side of your screen and snap it into place, allowing file comparison, along with multitasking. On top of the many features making Windows 7 better than most operating systems, is the hardware and software compatibility. After a fresh install of Windows 7, you can run Windows update and get all the drivers needed to run the hardware inside your computer. You can also run older applications that didn’t have compatibility in Windows Vista, but did in Windows XP. Another great new feature of Windows 7 is the security gains after upgrading from vista. User account control in Windows Vista was a huge hassle, and Windows 7 builds on that to make it less annoying...

...computer consultant will be to clarify some of the common misconceptions made by Mr. Green, and ensure that his network implementation will allow him to reach the goals he has as a small business owner. Mr. Green does not seem to have any interest in a Windows-based server up-front, meaning he will have to use the sharing or home group capabilities found within each computer’s operating system. Mr. Green needs to take into account the fact that Windows 7 Ultimate has little to no benefit over Windows 7 Professional as far as networking is concerned. The only added features he will get with Ultimate include the pre-installation of extra languages, and a service called Bit Locker. Bit Locker is an encryption software similar to an array of open source alternatives found on the internet, so if Mr. Green does not employ non-English speaking employees, he can save a good bit of money buying Windows 7 Professional. With Windows 7 Professional, he also maintains the ability to connect to a domain network if he was to purchase a real server running Windows SBS or Windows Server as his business grows. The included graphic is a simple explanation for Mr. Green as to how he should go about upgrading his Windows 7 Home Premium machine to Windows 7 Ultimate. Once Mr. Green decides to carry out his implementation, he will need to take several steps in order to ensure a clean, fully functional installation. First, he should back...
