You work as a Server Administrator for company Inc. The company has a Windows 2008 based
network environment. There is a domain controller with Windows Server 2008 R2 installed on it. You
want to install the Hyper-V role for production server consolidation and business continuity
management. Which of the following are the prerequisites for installing the Hyper-V role?
Each correct answer represents a complete solution. Choose all that apply.

A.
x32-based processor

B.
GUI accelerator

C.
Hardware-assisted virtualization

D.
Hardware-enforced Data Execution Prevention

E.
x64-based processor

Explanation:
The prerequisites for installing the Hyper-V role are as follows:
An x64-based processor: Hyper-V is available in x64-based versions of Windows Server 2008 –
specifically, the x64-based versions of Windows Server 2008 Enterprise, Windows Server 2008
Datacenter, and Windows Server 2008 Standard.
Hardware-enforced Data Execution Prevention (DEP): This should be both available and enabled.
Specifically, a user should enable the Intel XD bit (execute disable bit) or AMD NX bit (no execute
bit).
Hardware-assisted virtualization: It is available in processors that include a virtualization option –
particularly, Intel Virtualization Technology (Intel VT) or AMD Virtualization (AMD-V).

A and B are incorrect. These are not prerequisites for installing Hyper-V.
