This goes without saying but
1. If you can't afford to lose it don't mod or OC it.
2. At least read the OP before commenting.

i would suggest that you try c++ primer 4th edition

http://www.amazon.com/Primer-4th-Sta...5653724&sr=8-1

the main problems with books are that they outdated very quickly so i suggest finding a good site devoted to C++ tutorial....that way you keep up with the understanding and unlike books that cost an arm and a leg

i would also say that a good book to have is a C book....i am a junior in computer science degree and learned java first then C then from C learned c++....i would also say a good background in C is key to learning c++....

so here is another book you should check out...

ansi C 2nd edition that is a must for any C/C++ programmer it is like the basic building block of a reference library in programming....and a very knowledgeable read

http://www.amazon.com/C-Programming-...5654063&sr=1-2

You dont even really need a book.
http://www.cplusplus.com/doc/tutorial/
The C++ site gives you tutorials and had a forum where you can asked more advanced programmers for help.

But if you really are set on a book,
http://www.amazon.com/Sams-Teach-You...8&sr=1-3-spell
Which is the book I used to learn C++

You will also need a an IDE in order to code.
I recommend Netbeans or Visual C++
You can download Visual C++ Express Edition here
http://www.microsoft.com/Express/VC/
You can download Netbeans here
http://download.netbeans.org/netbeans/6.0/final/
But because a C++ compiler doesn't come with it, you need configure it to do so. See below.
http://www.netbeans.org/community/re...tructions.html
Since you are just learning, I recommend Visual C++ Express. Because setting up Netbeans for C++ is a bit of a pain in the ass.

Accelerated C++ by Andrew Koenig and Barbara E. Moo, find it awesome book that covers alot of the basics without going into too much detail, & helps you learn by example & with good programming practices, alot of other books give you alot of info but because you're trying to use it you end up looking up online & start using bad practices like system("PAUSE") & it's all downhill from there!

Online is a great reference as Metruzero mentions cplusplus is a great site but 1 superb place to get help with C++ is Daniweb, my usual hangout is in the C++ forum & you'll often find yourself with alot of info at hand over there including what books are good!

Try using this site www.Cprogramming.com

Not a book, but great examples.
