A place where we can assume you have already tried rebooting and
reinstalling.  A place where a lot of question just go unanswered.

Actually that is what is very much needed, imo. Some *good* resources and documentation on how to use Windows services/programs.


I was pretty surprised when I took over managing a few windows boxes by how hard it is to find some good decent documentation (after being spoiled by great linux docs for so long), and that most of my googling almost always turns up more links to books, seminars and events instead of tutorials and howtos.

Hopefully that will change a little. I've accepted the fact that I have to work with Windows on a daily basis. Now I just need some good resources to help me out.
