MCSE Sample Questions : Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional

Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional

  1. You are the administrator of a Windows 2000 network.You replace the uniprocessor computers in the graphics department with 25 new MPS-compliant computers.Each computer has two 550-MHz processors.

    You install the software that users need to perform their work.The software includes Win32-, Win16-, and DOS-based applications.

    Users report that when they use a Win 16-based application, they do not notice an improvement in performance compared to using the uniprocessor computers.You want the users in the graphics department to be able to see a noticeable improvement in performance.

    What should you do?

    1. Use Device Manager to install the MPS-compliant driver for the second processor.
    2. Use Device Manager to install the ACPI-compliant drivers for the second processor.
    3. Run the Win16-based application in a separate memory space.
    4. Replace the Win16-based applications with available Win32-based applications.

    Answer: D

    Explanation: Legacy 16-bit software cannot take advantage of multiple processors.The Win16-based applications therefore cannot use the second processor and should be replaced with Win32-based applications. A: The MPS-compliant computers are computers that are Multiprocessor System-compliant and are new. However, since there are no complaints concerning the performance of the Win32-based applications in this scenario, you can therefore assume that the MPS-compliant driver for the second processor has been installed. B: ACPI is related to power management and not multiprocessor support.It is therefore not relevant to this scenario. C: Separating the memory space of the Win16-based applications will not make them use the second processor as Win16-applications are not able to make use multiple processor systems.

  2. You are administrator of your company's network.Your company has offices in New York, Madrid, Paris and Tokyo.

    A user named Carmen works in the New York office, but she often travels to the Madrid office.Carmen uses the multi-language version of Windows 2000 Professional on her portable computer.She needs to be able to access both an English and Spanish user interface, input locale, and keyboard layout/IME.

    When Carmen is in the New York office, she logs on to the network by using the Carmen_eng user account.She is given the English user interface, input locale and keyboard layout/IME.When Carmen is in the Madrid office she logs on to the network by using the Carmen_span user account.She is then given the Spanish interface, input locale and keyboard layout/IME.

    Carmen reports that when she logs on to the network by using the Carmen_eng user account, she is not allowed to add any languages to her computer other than English, which is already installed.

    What should you do?

    1. Add the Spanish keyboard layout/IME for the Carmen_eng user account profile.
