3.
Correct Answers: C and E
A. Incorrect:
It is not necessary to reinstall the operating systems; there is a much
quicker way to resolve this problem. Reinstalling the operating systems allows the
computer to boot, but configuration settings are lost.
B. Incorrect:
The Windows XP Professional installation CD-ROM does not contain a
Boot.ini file. If no Boot.ini file is on a computer, it is created automatically by the
Setup program; if one already exists, the Setup program automatically edits it.
C. Correct:
You can boot from the Windows XP Professional installation CD-ROM
and attempt to repair the existing installation. Selecting the Inspect Startup Envi-
ronment option verifies and, if necessary, repairs the Windows XP Professional
files in the system partition. A new Boot.ini file is automatically created. You are
then able to boot from the hard disk into Windows XP Professional and manually
edit the Boot.ini file to add Windows 2000 Professional to the boot menu.
D. Incorrect:
The Windows 2000 Professional installation CD-ROM does not con-
tain a Boot.ini file. If no Boot.ini file is on a computer, it is created automatically
by the Setup program; if one already exists, the Setup program automatically
edits it.
E. Correct:
The Bootcfg /rebuild Recovery Console command is capable of scanning
your hard disk for Windows installations and automatically rebuilding your
Boot.ini file. Additionally, you can use Bootcfg to manually create or edit the
Boot.ini file.
