  1. Three users share a Windows XP Professional Edition workstation, which isn't a member of a domain.
    You recently installed an 80GB SCSI drive in the workstation on which these users will store the data from their scans. After creating one 80GB volume and formatting it with NTFS, you decide that you'll apply a quota for each user so that one user can't fill the volume. In Windows Explorer, you right-click the drive, select Properties, and select the Quota tab. At the tab, you select the "Enable quota management" check box, the "Deny disk space to users exceeding quota limit" check box, and the "Limit disk space to" option and leave the defaults in place. What's the default limit that you've set for each user (except those in the Administrators group)?

    A. 1KB
    B. 100MB
    C. 8GB (10 percent of the drive size)
    D. 800MB E. 80GB

    Answer: A - Administrators have no limits set, but the default quota size for other users of XP (as well as Windows 2000) is 1KB. So, if you use quotas, remember to increase the default amount; otherwise, your users will find that they can't write much data to the disk.

  2. You recently installed on your Windows XP Professional Edition workstation a new program that your company's developers wrote. The program installs a service known as ProEdit, which is set to automatically start when the system does. After a few days, your system refuses to start. You contact the developers, and they suggest disabling the ProEdit service's automatic start until they can patch their code. You use the XP CD-ROM to boot to the Recovery Console (RC), select your XP installation, and enter the administrator's password. After the RC starts, which of the following commands should you use to disable the ProEdit service?

    A. enable ProEdit service_boot_start
    B. enable ProEdit disable
    C. disable ProEdit service_boot_start
    D. disable ProEdit service_demand_start
    E. disable ProEdit

    Answer: E - The RC lets you disable problematic services or drivers. If you can't even boot, using the RC is one way to get back on track. You can reactivate services in the usual way through the computer management console. You should install and become familiar with the RC before you attempt Exam 70-270. For more information about the RC, see the topic "Using Recovery Console" in "Part VI: System Troubleshooting" in the XP Pro Help files.


  3. You installed Windows XP Professional Edition on a clean system out of the box, and you're perplexed to find that none of the standard desktop icons are apparent. Which of the following methods can you use to put the My Computer, My Network Places, and My Documents icons back on the desktop? (Choose the best answer.)

    A. Right-click an empty area on the desktop. Select Properties, then select the Desktop tab. Click Customize Desktop. Make sure that the My Computer, My Documents, and My Network Places check boxes are selected.

    B. Double-click My Network Places. In the left panel, make sure that Other Places is expanded. Select the My Computer icon, and another window appears. In the left panel, click Control Panel and select Classic View. Open the Display applet. Go to the Desktop tab and click Customize Desktop. Make sure that the My Computer, My Documents, and Internet Explorer check boxes are selected.

    C. In Control Panel, select Classic View. Open the Display applet, select the Desktop tab, and click Customize Desktop. Make sure that the My Computer, My Documents, and Internet Explorer check boxes are selected.

    D. Right-click the Start menu and select Properties. Go to the Desktop tab and select the My Computer, My Network Places, and My Documents check boxes

    E. From the Start menu, select Settings, then select Taskbar and Start Menu. Go to the Taskbar tab and clear the "Hide inactive icons" check box.

    Answer: A - Right-click an empty area on the desktop. Select Properties, then select the Desktop tab. Click Customize Desktop. Make sure that the My Computer, My Documents, and My Network Places check boxes are selected. This question and answer is tricky and is specifically designed to mislead people who read and choose answers too quickly (and we all do this sometimes). A couple of the answers that seem correct aren't because they put an incorrect icon on the desktop. For more information about this topic, see "Desktop Icons" in the XP Pro Help files.

  4. Which of the following is true about the new feature of Windows XP called 'Volume Shadow Copy'. 

    A. The need for scheduling a backup window is eliminated.
    B. Files open at the time of the shadow copy appear closed on the shadow copy volume.
    C.  Files are not skipped during the backup process as they are during a normal backup procedure.
    D. A computer can be backed up while applications and services are running.
    E. None of the above.
    F. All of the above.

    Answer: F - Windows XP Backup, by default, creates a volume shadow copy of the volume being backed up. A volume shadow copy is a picture of the volume at a particular moment in time. That means a computer can be backed up while files are open and applications running. Files are not skipped during backup and you don’t need to schedule backups when the computers on your network aren’t being used. The volume shadow copy service allows applications to continue running uninterrupted on the actual volumes while a shadow copy is made. After the backup is completed, the shadow copy is deleted.
