You're testing to become a MCSE and you can't figure out why the =
computer is crashing? You just answered your own question.
If the computer is old and they have a small monitor than the testing =
company must be out only for the money. I never had any=20
problems with the testing center I use or have a computer crash on me. =
Not typing that it doesn't happen , but how many signs=20
do you need before you start figuring out something is shady.

this happened to me. It's the older, third-party testing centers with =
older equipment, they can't handle the new MS tests which require a =
Windows 2000 environment.
My suggestions is take the test directly at Prometric or Vue, not a =
third party testing authorized testing center.
If it's directly at Prometric or Vue then the equipment is new and the =
testing center is awesome !!

In the past couple of weeks I took 70-215 and 70-210. During both =
exams, the computers were super slow to load the exam and proceed to the =
next question. Last night during my exam, the computer froze, got dll =
errors that wouldn't go away no matter how many times I closed them, and =
the machine had to be rebooted more than once.
Before I totally flip out on the testing center, would any other =
testers let me know if they're having similar experiences? The computers =
used at my testing center are old (and use TINY monitors) but I don't =
know if the issue is the computer or the downloading process for the =
exam.
Thoughts?
