    Hi I am currently doing an A+ cert with skillstrain. It's not to bad, however it just seem to be all reading from a folder, then doing a short test online at the end of each chapter and then I wait for my results. Now if I pass these test with high enough percentages I go onto the next chapter.

    I was just wondering if there are any other sites that may be useful to me doing this cert?

    Cheers Buck...

    Buck,

    I would also spend some time with the hardware and software utilities they will expect you to know about.

    For example;

    * What happens when a IDE devices is set to Master/Slave
    * Partitioning a drive
    * common mistakes made whilst diagnosing and replacing hardware
    * what should/should not be replaced in the field.
    * Day to day tech tasks such as virus removal, network connectivity, upgrading operating systems.
