Hi all,
As some of you may know - i recently shut the doors on my internet cafe and am now looking to join the workforce again.

I am studying for my MCSA and I desperately need any resources (free) that i can get my hands on.

Things like study guides, CBT nuggetts, and especially any exam questions and answers.

The exams i am taking are:

70-270 - Installing, configuring and Administering MS Windows XP Professional;

70-290 - Managing and maintaining a MS windows Server 2003 Environment

70-291 - Implementing, Managing and maintaining a MS Windows Server 2003 Network Infrastructure

70-284 Implementing and Managing Microsoft Exchange Server 2003

So if anyone can point me in the right direction or has anything they can lend or give me - that would be fantastic!!!

Thanks all
Siggy

PS _ Apologies if this isnt the right thread for this - but I didnt know where to put it

    when you are my age and trying to get into the workforce - all help is needed and employers seem to like the qualification.

    I used the Microsoft Press books for 70-270 and it's really pretty much perfect for the exam. I'm not sure you have an Australian equivalent of Amazon.com, but at least you know what book I'm talking about there.

    I used a program called TranDumper fo my MS study needs. Its basically an activeX applet for IE. You can find braindumps in trandumper format online.

    It is basically people remembering their actual test questions, and pooling them into 1 document. Trandumper simulates the MS exam.

    I have found some of the answers in the dumps to be wrong, but on the good dumps, they will explain why the correct answer is correct.

    Thes should be the exact same questions you will recieve on your M$ exams. (In theory :) )

    I serached for Trandumper and couldnt find it. I think I have a copy at work. Shoot me a PM and I can zip it and send it to you.

    I think I also have a trandumper formatted dump for 70-218 (which is the infrastructure exam I believe) if you want that. I formatted it myself.

    I have passed this out to my team at work, and many people found it helpful when they had to take their XP exams.

    Also my condolences on having to close you internet cafe and having to get a "real job".
