A docking station may have a built-in display. A docking station has a universal connector so that it can be used with all laptops. Which display technology is most commonly found in modern laptop computers? CRT LED plasma LCD Which task must be completed first for a technician to be able to configure power management states using Windows XP? APM power management mode must be configured in the BIOS before ACPI can be used to configure power. ACPI power management mode must be enabled in the BIOS before Windows XP can be used to configure power management. APM power management mode must be disabled in the BIOS so that Windows XP can be used to configure power management. All power management settings must be disabled in the BIOS so Windows can be used to manage ACPI. Which two laptop ports are used primarily for communication and network connectivity? (Choose two.) Ethernet modem parallel DVI

2 Which three components commonly connect to USB or FireWire ports? (Choose three.) camera AC adapter PC Card printer scanner graphics adapter What is the major difference between desktop and laptop motherboards?

3 2, 3, 4, 1 2, 4, 1, 3 3, 2, 1, 4 What is the benefit of using CPU throttling in laptops? It reduces the processing time needed by end-user applications. It reduces CPU power consumption and heat production. It reduces the amount of CPU resources needed by system applications. It avoids the need to increase the clock speed of the laptop processor. Which two characteristics make laptops a better choice than desktop computers? (Choose two.) mobility functionality size OS installed compatibility Which three components are interchangeable between desktop and laptop computers? (Choose three.) PC ExpressCard hard disk PCI sound card printer scanner

4 USB flash drive Which type of interface do current laptops use to achieve similar expansion capabilities as desktops? CardBus PC ExpressCard ISA PCI Refer to the exhibit.
