MICROSOFT 1

Filed under: Tips & Tricks — colwmk @ 9:52 pm

The paper had three sections(I am not sure about the names of the sections, but the times are correct, trust me!)

Verbal ability 25 qs 20 mts

Mental ability 25 qs 30 mts                    

Aptitude 20 qs 20 mts

 

If you just want to go thru the questions, just look at ‘à

 

The first section had basic English qs like use of prepositions, articles and two passages (both windows related):

àThe first one was about RAM, and how Windows assigns a bit of RAM to each process and what happens in the case of multi-processing and all that.

àThe second one was about DLL (Dynamic Linked Library) files and how they get an operation done.

These passages were followed by a set of questions which were simple if you carefully read the passage. My advice is that you better read the passages first clearly and only then start to answer the questions that follow. If you try to jump off in the middle to answer, you’ll only end up confused(because the choices given are such). That wraps up this section.

 

The second section mainly had questions involving union and intersection, for example:

 

àThere are 2500 people in a club.  800 were drinkers, 1250 were smokers and 400 were both

drinkers and smokers. The number of teetotalers?

 

There was not much variation from question to question; I mean all were more or less of the same pattern.

And there were cube-based problems:

àA child was given to paint a cube with the following conditions:

White should face down.

Black and blue should be on the opposite faces.

Golden should be up.

..and some more like this. This was followed by a set of questions which were simple and direct.

The second one was a toughie.

àThe cube again, with some conditions for colours. It is cut into two halves parallel to the black faced plane. The first half is cut into 4 equal cubes. And the second part into 32 equal cubes.

The questions were:

Number of cubes with at least one face coloured.

Number of cubes with no face coloured.

Number of cubes which have green on one of their faces.

And some more(this was the last question in the section so I couldn’t get to all).

 

 

 

 

And finally, the last section. It was a bit easy, comparitively.

It started off with 8 qs of the same type:

àThree set of words(or numbers) are given. If the first and second are exactly same opt for choice 1, if second and third are same, 2, and if first and third, choice3 and if none are same, then choice 4.

amarakbaraliKhan              amarakhbaraliKhan              amarakbaraliKhan

The answer here would be choice 3(All the choices were 3, by the way).

 

 

 

And then there were these set of questions(till the end, I think):

àSome qualification and conditions were given for a particular job( a bank job):

1. Age should be 25 or less as on Nov1, 2003

2. Should have passed X and XII with 60%.

3. Should have had Economics as a subject in 12th.

4. Should be fit physically.

If the candidate doesn’t satisfy the 2 norm, he should take a aptitude test.

And some more(not in this order)

And the questions were : Raj passed X and XII with distinction and has ecomics as a subject.

Choices: a. He can be selected.

               b. He has to write the test.

               c. He will get rejected.

There were 3(?) more questions of this sort.

 

That wraps up the test. Phew!!! And if you did read till here, do let me know if this helped you in any way. I’d glad to know J 

   

 

 

 

 

Mozilla: Firefox 3.0 Beta 3 Release Candidate (RC) Available for Download

Filed under: Software and Technical — colwmk @ 9:31 pm

Mozilla has confirmed that the first Release Candidate builds of Firefox 3.0 Beta 3 are now available for download. In this manner, Mozilla is making yet another step further towards the delivery of the next generation of its open source browser. Firefox 3.0 is designed to replace Firefox 2.x, which was released back in October 2006, on the heels of Internet Explorer 7. Although it was initially planned for RTM and availability by the end of 2007, quality concerns have prolonged the development process for Firefox 3.0 into 2008. At this point in time, Mozilla has failed to indicate when the Firefox 3.0 will be finalized.

“The process of building and testing builds which will become Firefox 3 Beta 3 began on Monday at 7:20pm PST when development handed over control to the build team for branching and tagging. Things are moving along well, and release candidates are now being tested by the Quality Assurance team. Anyone who wishes to participate in this effort can join the Firefox 3 Beta 3 Test Day this Friday, February 8th. While we appreciate the attention and devotion of our users, we ask them to wait until we have completed testing. If all goes well during the testing, Firefox 3 Beta 3 will be released on February 12th in the evening, Pacific Standard Time,” Mozilla revealed.

Firefox 3.0 Beta 3 Release Candidate is only available for download via Mozilla FTP. But since the full Beta of the browser will drop on February 12, the company indicated that it would be better to skip the RC builds altogether, as they were designed for testing and the final touches. But at the same time, Mozilla has made available for download a security and stability update for Firefox 2.0. Firefox 2.0.0.12 is designed to resolve a total of 10 security vulnerabilities in the browser three of which labeled with a maximum severity rating of Critical, one High and three moderate.

“As part of Mozilla Corporation’s ongoing stability and security update process, Firefox 2.0.0.12 is now available for Windows, Mac, and Linux for free download. We strongly recommend that all Firefox users upgrade to this latest release. If you already have Firefox 2.x, you will receive an automated update notification within 24 to 48 hours. This update can also be applied manually by selecting ‘Check for Updates…’ from the Help menu,” Mozilla added.

Microsoft Windows 3.1 Original – Bootable ISO

Filed under: Software and Technical — colwmk @ 9:13 pm

Microsoft Windows 3.1 Original – Bootable ISO

Released in 1990, Microsoft Windows 3.0 was a revolutionary operating system for the PC as one of the most used GUI operating systems.

Later Windows 3.1 was released in 1992 by Microsoft and was one of the first major PC GUI operating systems widely used. Windows 3.1 allowed users to utilize several features previously not available in MS-DOS. Some of these new features were the use of a mouse that allowed the user to navigate and manipulate data on the computer with one hand simply and easily and now did not have to memorize MS-DOS commands. In addition to the mouse, Windows now allowed the user to multitask, meaning the user could now run multiple applications at once without having to close out of each program before running another. Windows along with other GUI operating systems are one of the many reasons computers have become easier and more widely used.
