Introduction
Computer System and Network maintenance involves the processes,
activities, tools, standards with operating, administering, managing and
maintaining computer system. This commonly applies to computer
networks or computer hardware.
This provides you with much needed knowledge of computer hardware
and networking, enabling you to identify and rectify the onboard computer
hardware, software and network related problems. Computer System and
Network maintenance helps you to understand the hardware specifications
that are required to run operating system and various shipboard application
programs. Also, upgrading of existing hardware / software as and when
required. The main aspect Computer System and Network maintenance is
to eliminate cost for the computer user for troubleshoot, install / configure
the application program and network related problems and there by
charging exorbitant fees.

Learning Objective:
After reading this INFORMATION SHEET, YOU MUST be able to gain
familiarization on the different technical terms used in hardware & network
maintenance.
Introduction:
The world of computer system and network maintenance can easily
become confusing. Here is a list of terms to help you decipher the ton of
terms you see and hear about computers, software, and the internet.
1. Router
2. Network
3. Flash drive
4. Motherboard
5. Printer
II.
1. Flash drive a portable storage device which is plug directly to the
USB port.
Learning Objective:
After reading this information sheet you must be able to identify and
categorized the different tools, and equipment needed for network testing.
Introduction:
A tool is any physical item that can be used to achieve a goal,
especially if the item is not consumed in the process. Informally the word is
also used to describe a procedure or process with a specific purpose. Tool
use by humans dates back millions of years, and other animals are also
known to employ simple tools.
Tools that are used in particular fields or activities may have different
designations such as "instrument", "utensil", "implement", "machine",
"device," or "apparatus". The set of tools needed to achieve a goal is
"equipment". The knowledge of constructing, obtaining and using tools
is technology.

TOOLS EQUIPMENT
Put the grounding strap on your wrist (Figure 10) and connect the other end
to the computer case. If your strap is not equipped with a clip to hook to the
case, find a place to wedge against the metal as shown in figure 11. This will
prevent any buildup of static electricity on your body from damaging the
computer components.
Caution:Static electricity can ruin computer components. Always wear a
grounding strap when handling any internal components.
Step 6: Install
Motherboard
To install the motherboard we
need parts that should have
been included with your
purchased components:
1. Install the I/O bezel plate into the opening in the back of the case (figure
14). It pushes in from the inside.
2. Install standoffs in the case. The standoffs screw into the motherboard
mounting holes shown in figure 14. Check the screw hole locations on the
motherboard for exact placement.
3. Lower the motherboard into the case and align with the I/O bezel.
4. Install the screws.
Figure 15 shows the motherboard installed in the case. It works best to leave
the screws loose until all of them have been started and the board is aligned
with the bezel.
The hard drive is the device that stores all of your data. It is 3.5" wide and
needs to be mounted so that you can gain access to the cable connections
on the back (figure 16). If that is not possible you may need to connect
cables before you install the drive. To mount the drive:
1. Find a 3.5" drive bay to install the drive in. If you have trouble finding a
place to mount the drive consult your case documentation for
suggestions.
2. Slide the drive into place until the screw holes on the sides are lined up
with the holes in the case.
Install the screws.
The RAM is the temporary memory location that the processor works from.
Permanently stored data is pulled from disks and stored in RAM while the
processor works with it. The memory is easy to install:
1. Set the RAM board in the socket as shown in figure 22. Check to see that
the notch in the board is in the correct location. If it is not, turn it around
180º.
2. Press firmly on both ends of the board to set it into the socket. Make sure
the tabs lock into place as shown in figure 23.
Caution: Pressing the boards in when the tab is not aligned could cause
damage to the RAM boards as well as the motherboard.
