    4. Start the computer by using the Windows 2000 Professional CD-ROM. Then use the Recovery Console to repair the Master Boot Record.

    Answer: D

    Explanation: In this scenario the master boot record has become corrupted and has to be repaired.If the computer system is not able to boot, you will have to use the Recovery Console.The Recovery Console is a command-line interface that can be used to access a hard disk of a Windows 2000 computer system.It can be accessed from the Windows 2000 Professional installation CD-ROM and can be used to repair an installation of Windows 2000 Professional by repairing the registry or by disabling a device driver or service.To repair an installation of Windows 2000 Professional using the Recovery Console, boot the computer from the Windows 2000 Professional installation CD-ROM.On the Welcome to Setup screen, press R to open the Repair Options screen, and press C to activate the Recovery Console.You can then use the FIXMBR command to the repair the boot sector.
