I like windows , I use windows, but why would I want to know the upgrade path from windows95 to windowsXP? Alot of it just seemed useless to me.
I took the tests right before they did the latest reformat. Did the new format address this or did they just continue to add more stuff onto the top? -

It seems like those questions always get me on my practice tests. I think I'm going to re-read my entire printer chapter before my test, hopefully it will sink in better.
That and obscure things like what is the default IRQ for LPT1? Really? -

TravR1 Member Posts: 332I had the hardest time with:
Booting, fat, mbr, config.sys, autoexec.bat
That is probably because you cannot work with it hands on, it all happens behind the scene. It just takes a little extra effort - I recommend the flash card method for these.Austin Community College, certificate of completion: C++ Programming.
