What’s on the DVD in the Windows 7 For Dummies DVD bundle?
Q: What exactly is shown on the DVD included in your Windows 7 For Dummies book/DVD bundle?
I can’t find that information anywhere.
A: Windows 7 For Dummies is often sold with a bundled training DVD.
The bundled DVD contains about two hours of video training that walks you through many of the steps described in the book.
For example, the video below describes how to save and download information you’ve found helpful on the Internet (it’s just one of many videos on the DVD):
You can watch the DVD either through your computer’s DVD drive or a DVD player connected to your TV.

Hans: The DVD isn’t offered separately. However, you might be able to find the book/DVD at your local library.

Hi, is it possible to buy the windows 7 for dummies dvd ONLY as I already have the book. I did look at the bundle but found the print in the book that came with it was just to small and difficult for me to read Kind regards Hans Martens
