Your organization maintains a group of Windows 2000 systems that are used for client access to an important corporate application. You need to build five more Windows 2000 Professional systems, and you’ve been given a set of computers that have 300 MHz processors, have 64 MB of RAM, support video up to 1024×768 resolution, and include 20 GB hard drives. Which one of these specifications meets the minimum requirements but not the recommended requirements for a new installation of Windows 2000 Professional?
A) 300 MHz processor
B) 64 MB of RAM
C) 1024×768 video resolution
D) 20 GB hard drive
The answer: B) 64 MB of RAM
The recommended requirements for Windows 2000 are for 128 MB of RAM. If you’re planning on using these systems, you may want to consider a memory upgrade.
The incorrect answers:
A) 300 MHz processor
C) 1024×768 video resolution
D) 20 GB hard drive
The processor specification meets the recommended requirements exactly, and the video resolution and hard drive space exceed the specifications.
