Expertise
I like to help people as far my knowledge goes...i can help with Hardware Problems, Some parts of Multimedia and some internet related topics. and lots of basic stuff
Experience in the area
used to Windows XP, Network Administration, working in an IT department for over 5 years now, was working before as Hotline Support for Compuserve Germany, worked for Dell and HP in technical support in Germany from 97 to 99. But please dont ask Me things about Server Operating System and Microsoft Office Products. As the freqent questions about Password related topics are rising up, i dont answer any Questions about "How do i logon my system when i forgot my password". Answering this would be against the laws in my country, and excuse me, i dont know you and nobody can prove me that you really want to log on to your pc and not anyone else. Thx in advance.
Education/Credentials
was on a lot of trainings for Microsoft Software
Awards and Honors
I answered more than 3700 questions in my 2 years on askme.com, currently working in an IT Department...since 1999
