System Requirements
We recommend that you use a test workstation to complete the exercises in each lab. The following
are the minimum system requirements your computer needs to meet to complete the practice
exercises in this book. For more information, see the Introduction.
Hardware Requirements
You can complete almost all practice exercises in this book using virtual machines rather than real
workstation hardware. The following hardware is required to complete the lab exercises:

n
Personal computer with minimum 1GHz (x86) or 1.4GHz (x64) processor (2GHz or faster
recommended).
n
1 GB of RAM or more (2 GB recommended; 4 GB enables you to host all the virtual machines
specified for all the practice exercises in the book.)
n
40 GB hard disk space of which 15 GB is available (40 GB free hard disk space recommended;
60 GB enables you to host all the virtual machines specified for all the practice exercises in
the book.)
n
DVD-ROM drive
n
A graphics adapter that supports DirectX 9 graphics, has a Windows Display Driver Model
(WDDM) driver, supports Pixel Shader 2.0 hardware and 32 bits per pixel, and has 128 MB
graphics memory. (256 MB graphics memory recommended.)
n
Keyboard and Microsoft mouse or compatible pointing device
n
1 GB or larger USB storage device.
Software Requirements
n
Windows 7 Enterprise or Ultimate. An evaluation edition is available from the TechNet
Evaluation Center at />n
To perform the practice exercises in Chapter 6, “Network Settings,” you need an additional
Windows 7 Workstation. (This can be a virtual machine.)
n
To perform the optional exercises in Chapter 14, “Recovery and Backup,” you need
an additional hard disk formatted with the NTFS filing system. This hard disk can be internal
or external and should have at least 20 GB free hard disk space.

To minimize the time and expense of configuring physical computers, we recommend that you
use virtual machines. To run computers as virtual machines within Windows, you can use Microsoft
Virtual PC 2007. You can download Virtual PC 2007 for free from
windows/downloads/virtualpc/default.mspx.
