Part 1 (three-part CIL 1502 exam)
Windows Practice Problem

This is part one of a three-part exam.  Work the Presentations problem (part 2) also.  Part three is e-mail.  Know how to send, save, and add attachments to an e-mail message in Wildcat or VISTA e-mail (save to a floppy disk).  Know how to create screen shots. 

The lab is currently using Microsoft Office 2007 or 97-2003 or Corel X3, and Windows XP.

Use this Windows practice problem if you are in Lab 409 of Building 4 on campus.  Substitute files from your hard drive if using a home or work computer.  A valid driver's license or a student ID card is required to take the exam. 

1.      Begin this practice test with a blank storage medium. If there are folders or files on your storage medium erase or format your disk now.  You will save your work on a Flash Drive in Lab 409.

  • If any of the MEDIA or WALLPAPER files are missing from the hard drive use another file.  Files will be different on the different versions of Windows.  The object is to create, move, copy, and name files.

2.      Use Windows Explore or My Computer to create a new folder named Practice 1 on your storage medium.

3.      Create a second folder at the same level as Practice 1 and name it your full name (i.e., MaryJones)

4.      Open Practice 1 and create a folder inside of it and name it your last name (i.e., Jones).

5.      Copy one of the utopia.wav files from C:\WINDOWS\MEDIA\ folder to the A:\Practice 1\ your last name folder. 

6.      Copy notify.wav from C:\WINDOWS\MEDIA\ to your full name folder

7.      Copy autumn.jpg from C:\WINDOWS\WEB\WALLPAPER to the A:\ your full name folder.

8.      Move autumn.jpg from A:\ your full name folder to the root of (A:\ ) drive (so it isn’t in any folder).

9.      Rename the file called utopia.wav to Utah.wav.

10. Take a screenshot of the files and folders on the root of the storage medium (open the medium and be sure that both sides of the screen are showing, take a screenshot of the contents of the drive [instructions below], and paste them into a Word document.  Save the Word document to the desktop and then drag the document to the CD.  You can save directly to a flash or floppy drive. 

     

NOTE: You have three chances to take each exam; the first attempt and two retakes.  If you do not pass the exam, pay the cashier $5, and bring the receipt with you to take the second or third test.  The cashier is located on the second floor of the student services building.  Be sure to check your score on VISTA to see if you have passed the exam.
