There are a lot of people who just place their personal computers in random places when this should not be the case. Personal computers should be placed in areas that are well-ventilated. The air has to circulate properly so that the personal computer will not become too hot. Based on the choices that are available, a computer should never be placed on the following: Carpet because it might cause the personal computer to become too hot.

An IP address is one in which contains numbers and sometimes periods in the number line. This is the address from which the computer is connected. Whenever a message is sent to someone like in an email, then the network must know where to send it. This is where the IP address comes into play. IP in the word IP address stands for Internet Protocol address. There are two main things that the IP address does. These include identifying the actual address and locating another address. The protocol that is used to provide IP addresses to network computers automatically is the DHCP. DHCP stands for Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. This is used to assign the IP address to the computer.

The correct answer to this question is C. EFS files display in green by default. In the Microsoft Windows operating system, EFS stands for Encrypting File System. This technology provides filesystem-level encryption and enables files to be transparently encrypted. This helps to protect confidential data from users with malicious intent who have physical access to the computer. Users can turn on EFS features through Windows Explorer by using the code cipher.exe in the command-line utility. Windows communicates the fact that the file is encrypted using the EFS file encryption feature through green letters, so the user is aware of the encryption.

The correct answer to this question is B. A worm is the type of malware that self-replicates; "malware" is short for "malicious software." A computer worm not only duplicates on one computer, but can also spread copies of itself over multiple computers that are connected or networked together in some way. Worms often spread through e-mail, and many have mass-mailing capabilities that allow them to spread through a user's address book to many other users on other computers, which allows them to replicate quickly and dangerously. A worm is also a self-contained file, and it does not need to attach itself to an executable file.

The correct answer to this question is A. BitLocker uses TPM to provide an encryption key and to protect data. A Trusted Platform Module (TPM) is available only on Professional, Enterprise, and Education editions of Windows, along with Windows 7 Ultimate. The TPM is a chip located on the computer's motherboard that generates and stores the encryption keys. It acts as an additional layer of security; if someone removes the drive from the computer they will not be able to access it without the key stores in the TPM, and the TPM will not work if it is moved to the motherboard of another computer.

The correct answer to this question is A. The Task Manager utility is the fastest way to view the network adapter statistics. Task Manager is a piece of software included with the Windows operating system. Although multiple things can be achieved with this utility, its primary purpose is to show the user which programs are running on a computer. These programs can include not only the ones the user is actively using and aware of, but also programs that are running "in the background." In the Task Manager utility, the user can view and quit the programs that are running.

The system registry is overwritten after every successful login and the settings on the initial install were thus overwritten after the first reboot and login.

127A usb system has a asymetric design, consisting of a host, multitude of downstream USB ports and multiple peripheral devices connected in a tiered-star topology. Additional Usb hubs may be included in the tiers, allowing branching into a tree structure, subject to a limit of 5 levels of tiers per controller. Up to 127 devices, including hub devices may be connnected to a single controller.

Verify that the BIOS has been configured to detect a 2nd hard disk drive. Faulty master/slave settingsSometimes BIOS has IDE slots, which are not used when a computer is delivered and are disabled. Another solution could be faulty master/slave settings on the new HDD.
