it will provably be, formating a hard drive, and installing windows on it, easy and straight forward.

How much memory does windows 98 need (according to the idiots who invented A+ and N+ its 12mb when its actually 16mb, but you have to say 12mb)

again it all depends wether its theory or practice or both. Back in the day i had a theory one and then a practice one (theory was only hardware and no os).

Yeah the exam is easy

Just remember silly things like

winipcfg shows your win9x dialup/lan connection details
ipconfig is 2000/XP way of showing it
IEE1394 is Firewire
sysedit, msconfig etc etc etc

Thats all it ever asks you. And daft things like how to setup windows with a cd-rom.

You will sail through it :)
