    • Differential marks files as backed up

    • Incremental backs up everything, regardless of archive setting

    • Full backup is the fastest due to little overhead

Differential backup only marks files as backed up without actually backing them up. Incremental backup only backs up files that have changed since the last backup, regardless of their archive setting. Full backup involves backing up all files and is typically slower due to the larger amount of data being processed. Therefore, none of the statements accurately describe the characteristics of the different backup types.

    What is the advised virtual memory setting?

    • 1 x RAM installed

    • 1.5 x RAM installed

    • 2 x RAM installed

    • 2.5 x RAM installed

    • 3 x RAM installed

    Correct Answer
    A. 1.5 x RAM installed
    Explanation
    The advised virtual memory setting is 1.5 times the amount of RAM installed. This is because virtual memory is a space on the hard drive that is used to supplement the physical RAM when it becomes full. By setting the virtual memory to 1.5 times the amount of RAM, it ensures that there is enough space to handle the overflow of data from RAM, allowing the system to run smoothly without experiencing performance issues.

    You have installed more RAM on a client’s machine. Which of the following should you do afterwards?

    • Adjust CMOS settings

    • Recalabrate the memory

    • Configure all applications so the RAM is used efficiently

    • Change virtual memory settings

    • Defrag hard drive

    Correct Answer
    A. Change virtual memory settings
    Explanation
    After installing more RAM on a client's machine, it is necessary to change the virtual memory settings. This is because increasing the amount of physical RAM allows the computer to store more data in memory, reducing the need to use virtual memory. By adjusting the virtual memory settings, the computer can allocate less space for virtual memory and utilize the newly installed RAM more efficiently.

    Kernal Mode and system mode are the same thing

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation

Kernel mode, also known as system mode, is the highest privilege level where the operating system has full control over the hardware and resources. In this mode, the operating system can execute privileged instructions and access restricted areas of memory. Therefore, kernel mode and system mode are interchangeable terms used to describe the same privileged state of the operating system.

It ensures compatibility and allows for a gradual upgrade of the domain controllers in an organization.

    The boot partition contains NTLDR

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False

It is typically located in the root directory of the system partition, not the boot partition. The boot partition, on the other hand, contains the necessary files for starting the computer and loading the operating system. Therefore, the statement is false.
