I'm getting the same message as well. I'm not able to access the exam

Should all fixed now. We were moving to new servers

I thought the quiz was very good, however I thought the answer (D. A user cannot change his password 7 times before re-using an old password.) was poorly worded. Perhaps, D. A user MUST change his password 7 times before re-using an old password, would be better. See what you think. Regards, Stuart.

Very good quiz, I enjoyed answering and works very well.

Some of the questions needs more information to answer correctly. For example, the question about moving dynamic disks, the questions should say the dynamic disk is intended to be moved back to the original computer. Another one is, about surprise removals, the question talks about Windows XP tolerance not the device tolerance.

Thats wrong surely?" I agree with johnway that the answer to this question is not correct. If the person installed the driver, reboots and logs in and then notices a problem I don't think "Last Known Configuration" will work because they have successfully logged in thus their last know good has been updated. Overall a good quiz! Thanks!
