in Windows 7 exams
Hi,
I failed 70-686 not a long ago. My score was 560. After the test I kept postponing my studies. But now I started rereading material. I will try "blogging" to keep myself motivated.
For 70-686 I have my notes, book by Darril Gibson "Windows 7 Desktop Support and Administration".

Today I am studing SKU, MAK, KMS, VAMT.

I installed VAMT in test environment but could not play becuase I dont have MAK keys.

    Today I am studing WSUS. At work we inplemented WSUS for 100 PCs. So far it works fine. We have only one WSUS server and pushing down updates for WIN7 and Office 2007. There is a chance we are going to set up a downstream server at a different location.

    I did not study SIM and WDS last night. If someone can help me with WDS. I am trying to study WDS and some parts are confusing.
    Let's say I want to mulicast WINPE which was created by MDT2010 during MDT deployment share creation . WDS+MDT2010=LTI. I can create multicast group based on regular install.wim image. But I can not multicast WinPE thru WDS. I would like to multicast
    WinPE and it chained to regular WIN7 image + my apllications installed via MDT2010. I dont want use sysper to recapture thick image and multicast this way.

    It is very hard to explain the whole thing but if someone can help pls feel free to contribute.

    Thank you

    When are you planning on doing the retake? Also if you can remember what was the hardest hit area? They don't break it down on MS's website.
