Exam Software Downloading and Hardware Requirements

Laura E. Ray, Educational Programming Librarian, laura.ray@law.csuohio.edu | December 07, 2006 - 17:10

If you are one of the students taking exams on PCs this semester, you need to download the "Exam4" software from the Extegrity, Inc. Web site at http://www.extegrity.com to your laptop. Even if you did this during a previous semester, you need to download the software again because previous downloads expire and will not run again. The software is free and very much like a simple word processor. It works well with most Windows operating systems, including Microsoft Windows 98, Me, 2000, NT or XP. There is also a version for Apple laptops running OS X 10.4 (Tiger). It is strongly advised that you run the program in practice mode to familiarize yourself with it. While taking your exam, "Exam4" prevents you from accessing the Web, email, and instant messaging software. "Exam4" backs up your work every 30 seconds and provides 128-bit encryption, making sure your work is protected and secure. After you complete your exam and submit it, you will exit "Exam 4," and operation of all of your normal laptop programs will be restored.

To run "Exam4" software, your laptop must have either (a) a wireless card with a preexisting connection to the CSU wireless network, or (b) a 3.5 floppy disk drive or an optical drive capable of burning a CD so you can submit your exam. Your laptop will also need 10 MB of hard disk space available and a minimum 800x600 screen resolution. Perhaps most importantly, you must make certain your laptop is in good working condition and has the latest Windows patches and anti-virus updates available.

All laptops must be plugged into an electrical outlet. No battery power will be utilized. You will be informed in advance of the exam period as to which classroom you should report.

If you have questions about exam software downloading or hardware requirements, contact the College of Law Automation Department at automation@law.csuohio.edu or 216-523-7555, stop by the Automation Office in Law Library Room 112, or visit the Exam FAQ Web page at http://www.law.csuohio.edu/exam_faq.html.
