Now these aren't the easiest!
[HIDE]1 ) c (although you could get into an argument over semantics!)
2 ) a
3 ) a

Bit worried now - OS in 2 weeks, and i could have sworn that the answer to Q1 is what ive put, but no one agrees!

 

Thanks Cheekmaster, i did ask for OS....sorry guys my fault
[HIDE]
Q1) A
Q2) A
Q3) A[/HIDE]

 

I need OS questions so these are very helpfull!

Thanks cheekmaster!

Bloody hard though

 

Ouch, some toughies here! I'll go for:

[HIDE]b
a
a[/HIDE]

 

Haven't started on OS yet but I'll have a go

[HIDE]
1. A (Hopefully IO.sys is read before msdos.sys)
2. D (Kind of an 'umbrella' answer as it covers both answers A and B. I assume Explorer would have not even started if the boot sector was corrupt. .cpl files are considered part of windows aren't they?)
3. A (Only answer that seems logical)

I'll expand on these in a few, but its good to seem every having a good - it is cuz its harder?

btw: Well Done to those who got it right

 

Wahay! Got em all right!

Looking forward to my OS exam a bit more now

Appreciate the q's - keep em coming!

 

I got'em right too!, good job really seeing as I'm studying for the OS.

Thanks again Cheekmaster, great questions

 

I can see where you are coming from Harry, as it is win.com that starts windows, prior to that loading you only have DOS

 

Aint i a b1tch!

 

TCM and I have exchanged a few emails on this subject!

My position is that it is a grey area.

Harry.

 

LOL well the older I get, the more I realise, that nothing in life is black and white. Life is all grey areas

 

All the books ive been using say io.sys

If the question was "what file does a win 98 system read first on bootup" would this be io.sys?

 

i reckon it the way the question is written, im a dodgy writer (as most should know by now) and i understand that the way CompTIA words their questions is also dodgy... so i may be making matters worse or not...

im gonna get screwed in my exams! ...hehe
