[HIDE]Can't remember if 98 had A.
B just seems ridiculous
C is possibly an option
D is the most likely answer though.
[/HIDE]

[HIDE]
EDIT: A would be my answer if I could remember weather or not 98 had that tab.[/HIDE]

 

[HIDE]For me the answer is C[/HIDE]

 

[HIDE]A). virtual memory settings[/HIDE]

 

Gosh, 3 of them sound right

[HIDE]D?[/HIDE]

 

[hide]That's a crafty one Boyce ... I'm going with C - delete some of the programs the user doesn't need [/hide]

 

[hide]err i'll go with D[/hide]

 

[HIDE]A. This is a memory issue. As you could conceivably increase the swap file with the remaining HDD space, deleting an existing partition is an unnecessary step. Therefore, altering the Virtual Memory settings are what is required. See HERE [/HIDE]

 

Ha the best solution isn't there. Uninstall AOL

[HIDE]I presume Boyce is hinting that we should move the swap (page) file to the D drive. You would do this by using the virtual memory setting mentioned in answer *A*

But I would also recommend that they did C as well, though the question doesn't demand this.

So just *A*[/HIDE]

 

Answer A is correct

 

Nice one Boyce I do like Q&A's like that and yup I got it right ;)
