A: Boot Configuration Data (BCD) file
Feedback: The Boot Configuration Data (BCD) file contains the boot options displayed on the boot menu, which were previously found in the boot.ini file in Windows XP and Windows 2000.

Q: During what phase of the Windows 8.1 startup process is the Local Security Authority loaded?
- Kernel loading phase
- Logon phase
- Windows Boot Loader phase
- Initial startup phase
A: Logon phase
Feedback: During the Logon phase, the system loads the Service Control Manager (SCM) and the Local Security Authority (LSA), and then presents the logon user interface (LogonUI). The interface passes the credentials supplied by the user to the LSA for authentication, and the SCM loads the Plug and Play services and drivers that are configured for autoloading. If the authentication is successful, the Logon Manager launches Userinit.exe, which is responsible for applying group policy settings and running the programs in the Startup group, and then loads the Windows Explorer shell, which provides the Windows desktop.

Q: To install Windows 8.1 Enterprise 64-bit on your company’s computers, what version of Windows PE must you use?
Feedback: Windows PE 4.0 64-bit Windows PE 4.0 is available in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions. You must use the 32-bit version of Windows PE to install the 32-bit version of Windows 8.1 and the 64-bit version of Windows PE to install the 64-bit version of Windows 8.1.

Q: Windows PE runs from a RAM disk. What implication does this have when the computer reboots?
Feedback: All of its contents are lost when the computer restarts Because Windows PE requires a relatively small memory space, the entire operating system can run from a RAM disk. A RAM disk is a driver that allocates a section of active memory for use as a virtual disk drive, complete with drive letter. Because the RAM disk is based in memory it is much faster than a hard disk drive, but it is also volatile; all of its contents are lost when the computer restarts.

Q: After clicking the Drive options (advanced) button during a Windows 8.1 installation, which option is made available that is best used if you are installing Windows into an existing partition?
Feedback: Format The Format option enables you to format an existing partition on a disk, thereby erasing all of its data. There is no need to format any new partitions you create for the install, but you might want to format an existing partition to eliminate unwanted files prior to installing Windows 8.1 on it.

Q: When you boot from a VHD installation of Windows 8.1, what happens to the main operating system installation on your computer?
Feedback: It becomes inaccessible When you boot from the VHD installation, the entire operating system loads from the VHD file, and the main installation becomes inaccessible.

Q: How much free disk space should you plan to have available to support an upgrade to Windows 8.1?
Feedback: 20 GB Make sure that there is at least 20 gigabytes of disk space free on the partition where the old operating system is installed. During the upgrade procedure, sufficient disk space is needed to hold both operating systems simultaneously. After the upgrade is complete, you can remove the old Windows files, freeing up some additional space.

Q: When you boot from a Windows To Go device, what happens to the computer’s internal storage subsystem?
Feedback: It is disabled Once Windows 8.1 is loaded from the Windows To Go drive, the storage subsystem on the host computer is disabled, so that no remnants of the Windows To Go environment are left on that computer. Users can therefore load Windows To Go on any computer, without worrying about leaving any confidential information behind, and enterprise administrators can permit temporary visitors to use their own computers.
