3. The PC has just completed a POST check after successfully installing a second IDE device on IDE 1 with Windows 98 installed on IDE 0. Which of the following would be the most accurate in regards to the location of the first set of startup instructions?
Once POST has been completed the CPU seeks the MBR (master boot record).

4. The earlier method of recognizing hard drives was using CHS which gave us the 504MB drive limitation, which was not a problem in the earlier days of smaller operating systems and application programs. As time had passed the need for larger drives became obviously apparent and LBA was introduced along with INT 13 to offer support to the ever growing size of hard drives. Which of the following operating systems was the first to incorporate FAT 32 as a means to provide hard drive access?
Windows 98 with service pack 1.1
