This site is best for MCDST

Of course, the test would then be easy fish.

Ever attempted an exam without dumping it? Ever felt the thrill that comes with passing an exam you studied so hard for?

Does it really worth it that much to purchase Virtual Center? Would it be worth it to purchase

Virtual center
If I don't upgrade my VI3 from standard to Enterprise. The post above cheared me up a lot into

buying it, but it did not
mention what it will give & not give in standard edition.

Windows XP cannot create FAT32 partitions smaller than 2Gb or larger than 32gb if larger then 32Gb windows will force you to use NTFS

( Note)

If you have a dual boot machine with Windows XP and 98 when booting into 98 you will not be able to physically see the Windows XP partition as Windows 98 Does not support NTFS.

Use the windows catalog to find out if your devices are supported by XP.
