Cannot remember any websites right this second but can give you a few tips.Know your default com port IRQ's and DMA's,LPT know the same.Basically it would be best to know all the default settings for IRQ's on a machine.Also The types of cables and how many pins each cable has IE:IDE cable is 40 pins,scsi is 50 or 68 and so on.Know the different types of ini files that windows 95installs and the different ones that win3.1 installs.I do have a cd for A+ cert(actually 2 diff ones)maybe I could burn you a copy if you would pay for the blanks.I do not have any manuals though.If you are interested email me at snac31@interfold.com.Do not pay 500.00 dollars for an A+ training course it is not worht it.I would suggest going to Barnes&Noble and checking out their books on A+ cert they have some good ones.It is a very basic test and requires some memorization but it's pretty easy so don't go gaga when you see the books or cd course.

I can't remember all the websites but this is a good one:

www.mcp.com (http://www.mcp.com) , mcse, A+ cram session

It gives you a link to a test example with 225 questions, including windows 95. It is an excellent resource and the questions are very similar. Check in the library:
Scott Mueller, Repairing and Upgrading Computers.
Mark Minasi, Reparing and Upgrading Computers

Remember that the A+ is only a test that will verify that you have certain skills with computer hardware. For general ideas about the exam and the level of difficulty, look at
www.comptia.com (http://www.comptia.com)
As far as I know, Comptia is going to change the format again. They are planning to include a new part on networking.
Hope it helps!
