BASIC COMPUTER HARDWARE
Keyboard - The primary input device for a computer, allowing users to type
information just as they once did on a typewriter.
Mouse - Used with graphical interface environments to point to and select objects on
the system's monitor. Can be purchased in a variety of sizes, shapes, and
configurations.
Hard disk drive - High-capacity internal (and sometimes external) magnetic disks for
storing data and program files. Also called fixed disks.
Monitor - A monitor is a visual display of information, using text and graphics. It
converts analog signal to digital signal to transmit information so that monitor can
understand.
System Unit - The box that houses most of the system must provide an environment
that minimizes electrical interference to other electronic devices in the area. It should
provide a proper heat level for safe operation and bays and connections for drives,
circuit boards, and I/O devices.
APPLICATION SOFTWARE
A normal user rarely gets to see the operating system or to work with it. But all of us

C. Remembering
What other applications software that you know?
APPLICATION SOFTWARE
Application software (also called end-user programs) includes such things as
database programs, word processors, web browsers and anti-virus.
1. Database programs
Some examples of database software are Oracle,
FileMaker Pro, Microsoft Access, Microsoft SQL Server, SAP
and MySQL. Database software, also called a database
management system or DBMS, is the heart of a business
information system and provides file creation, data entry,
update, query and reporting functions.
2. Word processor
A Word Processor is an electronic device or
computer software application that performs the task of composing,
editing, formatting, and printing of documents.
3. Web browser
A web browser (commonly referred to as a
browser) is a software application for retrieving, presenting
and traversing information resources on the World Wide
Web. An information resource is identified by a Uniform
Resource Identifier (URI/URL) that may be a web page,
image, video or other piece of content. As a client/server
D. Abstraction model, the browser is the client run on computer that contacts the web server and
(60 minutes) request information. The web server send the information back to the web browser
which display the result on the computer or other internet-
enabled device that supports a browser, like Safari,
Google Chrome, Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox and
Opera.
4. Anti-virus
Antivirus or anti-virus software (often
abbreviated as AV), sometimes known as anti-malware
software, is computer software used to prevent, detect and remove malicious software.
Antivirus software was originally developed to detect and remove computer viruses,
hence the name. However, with the proliferation of other kinds of malware, antivirus
software started to provide protection from other computer threats. In particular, modern
antivirus software can protect from: malicious browser helper objects (BHOs), browser
hijackers, ransomware, keyloggers, backdoors, rootkits, trojan horses, worms,
malicious LSPs, dialers, fraudtools, adware and spyware. Some products also include
protection from other computer threats, such as infected and malicious URLs, spam,
scam and phishing attacks, online identity (privacy), online banking attacks, social
engineering techniques, advanced persistent threat (APT) and botnet DDoS attacks.
DATA STORAGE
Data storage is a device capable of holding information either temporarily or
permanently. It is also known as digital storage, storage, storage media, or storage
medium.
Two Types of Data Storage
Primary Storage – It stores data temporarily. Ex. RAM
Secondary Storage – It stores data permanently. Ex. Hard drive
A secondary storage can be removable, internal or external storage.
Kinds of Computer Storage
*Magnetic Storage – Hard disk drive, Magnetic Strip, Floppy Disk
*Optical Storage – Blu-ray, CD, DVD
*Flash Memory – Solid State Drive, Memory Card, USB Flash Drive, Memory Stick
*Online and Cloud Storage – Dropbox, MS Onedrive, Google drive, iCloud
SAVING A FILE
Saving files is a crucial part of working with documents, images, videos, and any other
files on a computer. Saving your work allows you to come back and continue later,
share your files with others, and protect your work from errors and program failures.
See Step 1 below to learn the best ways to save files and maximize your efficiency.
Method 1
1 Save often. Programs crash, and often at the worst time. Protect yourself from
losing hours of work by saving your files regularly. If you are making changes to a file
but don't want to overwrite the original, use the "Save as" function to create a copy
with a new file name.
Many programs have an autosave function that will automatically save your file after a
set amount of time. This can save you in a pinch, but should not replace actively
saving often.
2.
2 Name your saved files with useful names. When you first save a new file, you
will be asked to create a name for the file. Make sure that the file name allows you to
easily recognize the file, and contains any important information such as the date or
the author of the file. This will help you find what you need when you're searching for
a specific file on your computer.
3.
3 Check the format when you save your file. When you save a file for the first time
or use the "Save as" command to create a new copy, many programs will give you the
ability to change the format of the file. This can usually be done by clicking the
dropdown menu underneath the field for the file name.
Checking for the file format is especially important when transferring files to someone
who may not have the same version of the program that you do.
4.
4 Organize your save folders. Most operating systems will create a Documents
folder that your saved files will be automatically placed in by default. While this can be
good to have a general idea of where your files are, taking the time to create a system
of folders can help keep you afloat in a sea of files.
Use folders to sort by file type, project, date, or any other criteria you want.
Most modern versions of Windows use Libraries, which allow you to keep files of the
same general type in one area. These libraries are not actually locations but are
instead collections of files from across multiple locations.
5.
5 Learn the keyboard shortcuts. You can cut down a lot of time if you learn the
keyboard shortcuts for saving files, especially if you find yourself saving a lot. Pressing
Ctrl + S ( ⌘ Cmd + S on Mac) will save your file in most programs.
Many programs have shortcuts for the "Save as" function as well. These shortcuts will
vary from program to program. For example, F12 will open the "Save as" dialog in
Word, while ⇧ Shift + Ctrl + S will open it in Photoshop.
6.
6 Backup your files. To prevent data loss in the even of a computer failure, make
sure that you backup your saved files often. This means copying the saved files from
your Documents folders onto an external hard drive or uploading them to a cloud
storage service.
Method 2
1 Save files in Microsoft Word. Word is one of the most popular word processing
programs in the world, and, as such, learning how to save files in Word is an important
skill to have. See this guide for details on saving files in Word.
2 Save a file as a PSD file in Photoshop. Knowing how to change the format of
your saved file is an important basic computer skill. This article will explain how to
save a file as a PSD image in Photoshop, but the basic premise applies to most
programs.
1. 3 Save pictures from a website. The internet is full of content, and you'll probably
come across a picture or two that you want to save for your own use. All web
browsers allow you to easily save images to your own computer, and similar steps
work for saving other types of files from websites.
4 Save a Google Doc. With cloud-based document solutions becoming more and
more popular, chances are you're going to be doing some work in Google Drive. While
these files are always saved in the cloud, you can download and save them to your
computer so that you can open them without accessing the internet.

Ask:
C. Analysis Valuing: How did you find the activity?
(5 minutes) Evaluating: How important is a desktop icon?
Transition Question: Can you identify other desktop icons that you can see
on the screen?
COMPUTER DESKTOP
After you turn on the computer and log in with your user name and (if necessary)
password, you see a screen indicating that Windows is starting. Then you see the
Windows desktop. Often, an interesting picture or photo appears on the desktop.
Desktop Icons
Desktop icons are small pictures that represent programs or documents, such as
letters and photos. Icons provide a way to run a program or open a document. The
Windows 7 desktop displays an icon for the Recycle Bin, where deleted documents
go. The Recycle Bin may be the only icon on your desktop, or you may see others.
The desktop also displays gadgets, which are usually larger than icons. Gadgets
display information, such as the time (in a clock) or the current weather report. The
start button, located in the bottom-left corner of the screen, provides easy access to all
D. Abstraction the programs you use. This circular button displays the Windows logo – a four-
(40 minutes) colored flag. You can click the Start button to display the Start menu, which is a list of
options.
The area at the bottom of the screen and to the right of the Start button is the taskbar,
where you see icons for some programs. The right end of the taskbar is an area
called the Notification area or icon tray, which displays the current date and time, as
well as icons for other programs that run automatically when your computer starts.
Messages called notifications pop up here. You can get information about these icons
by hovering the mouse pointer over them. Click any icon in the icon tray to open the
associated program, and right-click an icon to see a menu of available options, such
as those to change settings or exit program.
KEYBOARDING TECHNIQUES
Correct keyboarding technique requires proper hand positioning at the computer
keyboard and learning to key by touch, thus enabling eyes to remain on the copy
rather than watching fingers.
Correct Technique Criteria:
KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS
Dust, food, liquid, and other particles can get stuck underneath the keys on your
keyboard, which can prevent it from working properly. The basic cleaning tips below
can help keep your keyboard clean.
1. Unplug the keyboard from the USB or PS/2 port. If the keyboard
is plugged into the PS/2 port, you will need to shut down the
computer before unplugging it.
If you spill liquid on the keyboard, quickly shut down the computer and
disconnect the keyboard. Then turn the keyboard upside down and allow
the liquid to drain.
If the liquid is sticky, you will need to hold the keyboard on its side under running
water to rinse away the sticky liquid. Then turn the keyboard upside down to drain for
two days before reconnecting it. Please note that keyboard may not be fixable at this
point, but the method above is probably the best option.

H. Concluding Activity Desktop icons are small pictures that represent programs and documents, such as
(5 minutes) letters and photos. We can directly access programs and applications through the
icons on the desktop. Keyboarding technique requires proper hand positioning at the
computer keyboard and learning to key by touch, thus enabling eyes to remain on the
copy rather than watching fingers. Learning to keyboard is not easy. It will take lots of
self-discipline and patience. Correct technique is the most important skill any
beginning typist can learn.

Which kind of printer that you know?
PRINTER
A printer is a device that accepts text and graphic output from a computer and
transfers the information to paper, usually to standard size sheets of paper. Printers
vary in size, speed, sophistication, and cost. In general, more expensive printers are
Early impact printers worked something like an automatic typewriter, with a key
striking an inked impression on paper for each printed character. The dot-matrix
printer was a popular low-cost personal computer printer. It's an impact printer that
strikes the paper a line at a time. The best-known non-impact printers are the inkjet
printer, of which several makes of low-cost color printers are an example, and the
D. Abstraction laser printer. The inkjet sprays ink from an ink cartridge at very close range to the
(40 minutes)
paper as it rolls by. The laser printer uses a laser beam reflected from a mirror to
attract ink (called toner ) to selected paper areas as a sheet rolls over a drum.
Color: Color is important for users who need to print pages for presentations or
maps and other pages where color is part of the information. Color printers can
also be set to print only in black-and-white. Color printers are more expensive to
operate since they use two ink cartridges (one color and one black ink) that need
to be replaced after a certain number of pages. Users who don't have a specific
need for color and who print a lot of pages will find a black-and-white printer
cheaper to operate.
usually measured in dots per inch (dpi). Most inexpensive printers provide
Inexpensive printers print only about 3 to 6 sheets per minute. Color printing is
Memory: Most printers come with a small amount of memory (for example, one
megabyte) that can be expanded by the user. Having more than the minimum
amount of memory is helpful and faster when printing out pages with large
images or tables with lines around them (which the printer treats as a large
image).
The most common I/O interface for printers has been the parallel Centronics interface
with a 36- pin plug. In the future, however, new printers and computers are likely to
use a serial interface, especially Universal Serial Bus or FireWire with a smaller and
Printer Languages
Printer languages are commands from the computer to the printer to tell the printer
how to format the document being printed. These commands manage font size,
graphics, compression of data sent to the printer, color, etc. The two most popular
constructions to describe the appearance of a printed page to the printer. This printer
language was developed by Adobe in 1985. It introduced new features such as outline
fonts and vector graphics. Printers now come from the factory with or can be loaded
with Postscript support. Postscript is not restricted to printers. It can be used with any
device that creates an image using dots such as screen displays, slide recorders, and
image setters.
commands to the printer for printing documents. Escape code language is so-called
because the escape key begins the command sequence followed by a series of code
numbers. Hewlett Packard originally devised PCL for dot matrix and inkjet printers.
Since its introduction, it has become an industry standard. Other manufacturers who
sell HP clones have copied it. Some of these clones are very good, but there are small
differences in the way they print a page compared to real HP printers. In 1984, the
original HP Laserjet printer was introduced using PCL. PCL helped change the
A font is a set of characters of a specific style and size within an overall typeface
design. Printers use resident fonts and soft fonts to print documents. Resident fonts
are built into the hardware of a printer. They are also called internal fonts or built-in
fonts. All printers come with one or more resident fonts. Additional fonts can be added
by inserting a font cartridge into the printer or installing soft fonts to the hard drive.
Resident fonts cannot be erased unlike soft fonts. Soft fonts are installed onto the
hard drive and then sent to the computer's memory when a document is printed that
uses the particular soft font. Soft fonts can be purchased in stores or downloaded from
the Internet.
Turn the printer on. You should hear the page feed mechanism start and the printer
should light up.
Wait for your operating system to detect and install the printer. All modern
versions of Windows and OS X should be able to automatically detect the printer and
install the necessary drivers for you. You may need to be connected to the internet in
order for your operating system to download the appropriate files. For most users, this
should be all you need to do in order to begin printing from your computer to your new
printer. If you are using an older version of Windows/OS X, or the printer is not
automatically detected, read on.
Install the software that came with the printer. This will usually install any drivers
that weren't installed automatically by Windows, and may install extra printing
software that allow you to take advantage of additional features on your printer. If you
don't have the disc that came with the printer, and it wasn't automatically detected by
your operating system, read on.
As long as your printer was properly automatically installed, you usually don't actually
need to install anything else.
Download the drivers from the manufacturer's website. If you don't have the disc
and the printer wasn't installed automatically, you can download the drivers directly
from the manufacturer. You will need to know your printer's model number, which
should be prominent on the printer itself.
You can quickly find the support page for your printer by opening Google and
searching for "manufacturer model support".
Run the downloaded drivers. After installing the drivers, your printer should now be
ready to print from any program on your computer that supports printing.
Understand what a network printer is. A network printer is a printer that is installed
directly on your network. A network printer is not dependent on a connected computer
being on, but can be somewhat difficult to configure, especially if the printer is older.
Not all printers can be configured as network
printers.
Read the installation guide for your printer if you have it. Installing a network
printer can be a bit trickier than installing a USB printer, and many printers have
specific ways that they need to be installed. Referring to your printer's specific
installation guide can save you a lot of headaches down the road. You can usually find
the installation guide as a PDF file on the manufacturer's support page for your model.
You can quickly find the support page for your printer by opening Google and
searching for "manufacturer model support".
Connect your printer to your network. There are generally two ways that you can
connect a network printer to your home network: wired or wireless.
Wired - Connect your printer to your network router using Ethernet network cable.
Generally this doesn't require any further network configuration.
Wireless - Connect your printer to the wireless network using the display screen (if
available). Most wireless printers will have a small display screen that you can use to
find and connect to your home network. If your network is secure, you will be asked
for the password. If you don't have a screen, you will likely need to connect the printer
to your computer using USB and configure it in Windows first.
Open the Control Panel. Once the printer has been successfully connected to the
network, you can install it in Windows from the Control Panel.
Install the drivers (if prompted). Windows may prompt you to install the printer
drivers. Make sure you are connected to the internet and then click Install driver.
Once the drivers are installed, you will be able to print to your network printer from any
program that support printing.
If you don't have an internet connection, you can use the disc that came with the
printer to install the drivers.
Not all printers will require a separate driver installation.

THE INTERNET
The Internet (contraction of interconnected network) is the global system of
interconnected computer networks that use the Internet protocol suite (TCP/IP) to link
devices worldwide. It is a network of networks that consists of private, public, academic,
business, and government networks of local to global scope, linked by a broad array of
electronic, wireless, and optical networking technologies. The Internet carries a vast
range of information resources and services, such as the inter-linked hypertext
documents and applications of the World Wide Web (WWW), electronic mail, telephony,
and file sharing.
Web Browser
A web browser (commonly referred to as a browser) is a software application for
accessing information on the World Wide Web. Each individual web page, image, and
D. Abstraction
(100 minutes) video is identified by a distinct Uniform Resource Locator (URL), enabling browsers to
retrieve these resources from a web server and display them on the user's device.
A web browser is not the same thing as a search engine, though the two are often
confused. For a user, a search engine is just a website, such as google.com, that
stores searchable data about other websites. But to connect to a website's server and
display its web pages, a user needs to have a web browser installed on their device. [3]
The most popular browsers are Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer, and Edge.
URL
A uniform resource locator (URL) is the address of a resource on the Internet. A URL
indicates the location of a resource as well as the protocol used to access it. It is also
known as a Web address.
A URL contains the following information:
The protocol used to a access the resource
The location of the server (whether by IP address or domain name)
The port number on the server (optional)
The location of the resource in the directory structure of the server
A fragment identifier (optional)
What is a search engine?
A search engine is a web-based tool that enables users to locate information on the
World Wide Web. Popular examples of search engines are Google, Yahoo!, and MSN
Search. Search engines utilize automated software applications (referred to as robots,
bots, or spiders) that travel along the Web, following links from page to page, site to

contact with a user's fingertips. If this is not sufficient for a more severely dirty
keyboard, keys are physically removed for more focused individual cleaning, or for
better access to the area beneath. Finally, the surface is wiped with a disinfectant.
Mouse
The top surface of the mouse is wiped with a plastic cleanser to remove the dirt that
accumulates from contact with the hand, as on the keyboard. The bottom surface is
also cleaned to ensure that it can slide freely. If it is a mechanical mouse, the trackball
is taken out, not only to clean the ball itself, but to scrape dirt from the runners that
sense the ball's movement and can become jittery or stuck if impeded by grime.
Tower/desktop unit
Internal components accumulate dust brought in by the airflow maintained by fans to
keep the PC from overheating. A soft brush may remove loose dirt; the remainder is
dislodged with compressed air and removed with a low-pressure vacuum. The case is
wiped down with a cleaning agent. A pressurized blower or gas duster can remove
dust that cannot be reached with a brush.

FILE MAINTENANCE
Data backup, or the process of backing up, refers to the copying into an archive file of
computer data that is already in secondary storage—so that it may be used to restore
the original after a data loss event.
USB stick
USB flash drives are basically miniature hard drives that you connect to your
computer using a USB port. The drives are extremely cheap, with prices depending on
their capacity. They’re also portable, and can be used to backup information from
several computers to the same drive.
Although USB sticks are highly convenient, they’re still not a complete backup
solution, and are best suited for intermediate backups, such as storing file recovery
programs or critical business documents.
One of the evident drawbacks of using an external hard drive is that you’ll need to
update your backups on a regular basis, or else new files won’t be included. There’s
also the risk of the device being stolen or misused.
The main downside of NAS is its inability to scale beyond the limits of the system; you
have to purchase additional hard drive bays when you need more capacity. You also
have to take full responsibility for data security if you’re implementing NAS.
Cloud storage
Cloud storage is becoming more and more popular among businesses of all sizes,
due to its many benefits such as allowing users to access data anywhere on
smartphone devices, as well as enabling you to work with the most current hardware
and up-to-date software. It is also affordable, since you’ll only have to pay for what
you use. What’s more, cloud computing is very convenient, because your service
provider will take care of the installation, management, and maintenance processes.
On the downside, some cloud service providers don’t employ sufficient security
measures on their systems, so your data could be exposed to potential cybersecurity
threats. This means that it is not always the ideal solution for companies dealing with
very sensitive data – medical practices and law firms, for example.
Keeping your computer safe from viruses is extremely important, especially if your
computer is connected to the Internet. Antivirus software can help you keep your
computer safe, but only if you keep its virus definitions up-to-date. Use the steps on this
page to make sure that your antivirus program has the newest information about viruses
The majority of new antivirus programs (programs or computers purchased after the
year 2000) enable users to update their antivirus program through the software. Open
the antivirus program and look for "Update," "Check for updates," "Live Update," or
something similar. Below are some examples of how a user may update their antivirus
program.
Microsoft Windows users running recent versions of McAfee can double-click on the
Vshield icon in their Systray and click "Check for VirusScan update" to check for
available updates.

Note: If you do not have an antivirus program installed on your computer, we strongly
recommend purchasing one at your local electronics store or downloading one from
the Internet. Links to popular antivirus programs are listed further down this same

Some factors that will affect your choice of electrical wiring include color,
label information and applications. The information printed on the wire covering is all
that you need to choose the correct wire for your home. Here’s some detailed
information on the various features of electrical wire, which will help you choose the
correct composition:
1. Size of Wires – Each application requires a certain wire size for installation, and the
right size for a specific application is determined by the wire gauge. Sizing of wire is
done by the American wire gauge system. Common wire sizes are 10, 12 and 14 – a
higher number means a smaller wire size, and affects the amount of power it can carry.
For example, a low-voltage lamp cord with 10 Amps will require 18-gauge wire, while
service panels or subpanels with 100 Amps will require 2-gauge wire..
2. Wire Lettering – The letters THHN, THWN, THW and XHHN represent the main
insulation types of individual wires. These letters depict the following NEC
requirements:.
T – Thermoplastic insulation
H – Heat resistance
HH – High heat resistance (up to 194°F)
W – Suitable for wet locations
N – Nylon coating, resistant to damage by oil or gas
X – Synthetic polymer that is flame-resistant
5. Wire Gauge, Ampacity and Wattage Load – To determine the correct wire, it is
important to understand what ampacity and wattage a wire can carry per gauge. Wire
gauge is the size of the wire, ampacity is how much electricity can flow through the
wire and wattage is the load a wire can take, which is always mentioned on the
appliances..
2. Cable Size – Cable size is the gauge of individual wires within the cable, such as
14, 12, 10 etc. – again, the bigger the number, the smaller the size. The number of
wires follows the wire-gauge on a cable. So, 10/3 would indicate the presence of 3
wires of 10-gauge within the cable. Ground wire, if present, is not indicated by this
number, and is represented by the letter ‘G’.
Safety is very important, and if your installation of wires and cables is not
proper, it could lead to accidents. Before you start any electrical project that includes
wiring and cabling, you need to obtain permission from your local building inspector.
Once the job is done, get the installation inspected for compliance with local codes
and regulations.

1. Letter code of wires to be used for fire alarm system circuit.
E. Application 2. Size of wire for low voltage lamp shade.

Splicing is the process of combining 2 lengths of wires so they can carry a current.
Step 2: Holding a wire in each hand, take the “Y” and interlock the
two wires together. But, leave room between the two “Y”’s large
enough for the outer insulation from the “none” strip section of wire
to easily pass through. Lay the “Y” sections down along the wire
without bending them backward, straight and even with the wire.
Step 3: Using one hand, pinch down on that spot while taking the
legs of the “Y” from the same side and stand them straight up 90
degrees from the splice. Now, using your other hand, with
firm finger pressure rotate the two legs of the “Y” around the splice
towards the opposite wire
Step 4: Now switch procedures from the right hand to the left and
and stand the other set of “Y” legs 90 degrees and do the same
crimp and turn all the way to the othe
r insulated section of wire.
D. Abstraction Tools:
(30 minutes) Soldering Iron/gun - is a hand tool that plugs into a
standard 120v AC outlet and heats up in order to melt
solder around electrical connections
Brass or Conventional Sponge will help to keep the
soldering iron tip clean by removing the oxidation that
forms. Tips with oxidation will tend to turn black and not
accept solder as it did when it was new.
Soldering Iron Stand helps prevent the hot iron tip from
coming in contact with flammable materials or causing
accidental injury to your hand.
Step 1: Begin by
making sure the tip is
attached to the iron
and screwed tightly in
place.
Step 2: Turn on your soldering iron and let it heat up. If you have a soldering station
with an adjustable temp control, set it to 400′ C/ 752′ F.
Step 3: Wipe the tip of the soldering iron on a damp wet sponge to clean it. Wait a
few seconds to let the tip heat up again before proceeding to step 4.
Step 4: Hold the soldering iron in one hand and solder in the other. Touch the solder
to the tip of the iron and make sure the solder flows evenly around the tip. You should
tin the tip of your iron before and after each soldering session to extend its life.
Eventually, every tip will wear out and will need replacing when it becomes rough or
pitted.
B. Soldering Wires
1. Tin your wires. Melting some solder into the filaments with your soldering iron to
make soldering of the splice much easier. It helps distribute the heat quickly.
2. Apply the soldering iron and the solder on the spliced wire to melt and mingle,
forming a nice solid solder joint. Add a little more solder if necessary to really fill in
the cracks and get a high strength, low resistance joint.
C. Supplies, Equipment, Tools, wire cutter, needle nose pliers, basic light switch setup/device

Preparation
D. Abstraction Proper preparation is the key to a successful build. Before you begin, make
(120 minutes) sure you have all the tools you will need, secure a clear, well-lit workspace, gather all
the components you’ll be using and unpack them one at a time, verifying that everything
that is supposed to be there is actually present. Find a dry, well-ventilated place to do
your work. You should have plenty of light and if possible, you should choose an area
without carpet on the floor, as carpet tends to generate a lot of static. An unfurnished
basement is a good work location.
Basic Tools
You won’t need many tools to assemble your computer, in fact the only one
you must have is the screwdriver, but if you can get most of the following together, you’ll
find things go a little easier.
Before you begin building or refitting a computer, you should have some basic tools:
1. Fully shut down and unplug the computer before you make any attempts
to disassemble the tower.
2. Take off any metal objects on your arms or fingers such as bracelets, rings
or watches. Even if your unit is unplugged, there may still be some
remaining electric charge.
3. Make sure your hands are completely dry to avoid damaging any
mechanical parts as well as to avoid electrocution.
4. Work in a cool area to avoid perspiration for the same reason as seen in
the previous number.
5. Before touching any part within the tower, put your hands against another
metal surface (such as the computer casing) to remove static charge,
which may damage sensitive devices.
6. Prepare a place to keep any screws you may remove. A container or piece
of paper with labels for each part (casing, motherboard, CD drive, etc) is
ideal to avoid confusion between the similar-looking screws.
7. Handle all parts with care. Place each piece you remove carefully down
onto a stable surface.
8. If a component does not come out easily, do not forcefully remove it.
Instead, check that you are removing it correctly and that no wires or other
parts are in the way.
9. Be careful when holding the motherboard, it’s underside actually quite
pointy and able to hurt you.
10. Never attempt to remove the power source, a box attached to the side or
bottom of the unit to which all cables are connected.
11. When removing any cables, wires or ribbons, make sure to grasp the
wire at the base or head to keep it from breaking.
12. Be careful not to drop any small parts (particularly screws) into
unreachable areas such as into the computer fan or disk drive.
13. Take note that the three of the most damaging things to a computer
are moisture (sweat, drinking water), shock (electric or from being
dropped) and dust (any debris from household dust to bits of food).
https://computerassemblyfordummies.wordpress.com/overview/safety-
precautions/
Steps in Assembling the Computer
1. Opening the Case
Remove the side panels. Find the screws that hold the side
panels in place and remove them. The panel is removed by
first sliding it back then lifting it away from the case.
5. Install Motherboard
Lay the case flat on its side. Put the motherboard
gently into the case. Slide the motherboard towards
the edge of the case; it will fit snugly into the face
plate (under the three tabs that you bent earlier) and
the brass standoffs will be visible through the holes.
Screw nine small Phillips-head screws into the nine
holes. Don't over tighten
Screw nine small Phillips-head screws into the nine
holes. Don't over tighten.
Slide the drive into the drive bay until the screw
holes are lined up and the front of the drive is flush
with the front of the case. Make sure that it is
orientated correctly. Install the screws
Slide the front of the case back on, around the
DVD-ROM drive.
After executing the last step, take off the antistatic wrist strap. Turn the case's rear
power switch off. Plug power into the case. Turn the power switch on. Watch the CPU
fan, and press the front power button on the case. If the CPU fan starts spinning and
the computer beeps, turn power off; you have a working computer. Put the side of the
case back on. At this point you may start configuring the BIOS.

communicate with one or more hardware components. The cause may be a faulty
component, faulty installation or a problem with the BIOS. During the POST, a series
of beeps may sound an audio code to indicate what problem has occurred. Most PCs
beep once at the successful completion of the POST, some beep twice.

Of all the types of computer problems you can have, network issues are one of the
worst. Though our computers can do a lot offline, being cut off from the internet isn’t
fun. Even worse, when you can’t get online, it’s not easy to research fixes for your
problem.
Let’s step through the basic process of how to troubleshoot network connectivity
problems. That way, next time you open up your web browser to a Cannot Connect
message, you’ll know what to do. Like all troubleshooting, we’ll start broadly and
narrow down to specifics.
After each step, attempt to connect to a website to verify your connection is working.
If it still doesn’t work, continue to the next part.
There’s no need to get upset right away, as the fix to your problem might be as
simple as rebooting your equipment. Restarting fixes a ton of issues, so make sure
it’s your first response to network problems, too.
Go ahead and reboot your PC, as well as your modem and router. To clear the
modem and router caches, wait 60 seconds before you turn them back on again.
When you plug everything back in, plug your modem in first and wait for it to power
on before connecting your router.
Turning everything off and back on first ensures that it isn’t a temporary network
problem. It’s better to reboot now than to waste 30 minutes continuing on when you
don’t need to.
Once you’ve restarted, if you have another computer (or a mobile device), try getting
online with that machine. If you find that no devices can connect, it’s likely an issue
with your equipment or your ISP.
Should you find that only one computer can’t get online, you can continue to narrow
down the problem. On that device, make sure to run an antivirus scan to ensure you
don’t have malware interfering with your connection. You should also make sure that
your firewall settings aren’t blocking the connection.
Finally, try using a different browser to see if your usual one is somehow damaged.
Does your network problem persist after rebooting? Before you start diving into
settings and tests, the next step to check is that you’re physically connected.
If you use an Ethernet cable to connect to your router, check to make sure that it’s
not unplugged or damaged. If your laptop has a physical wireless switch, make sure
that it’s not set to the off position.
Once you’ve verified a proper connection, check your equipment. Are the lights on
your router and/or modem flashing green as normal? If no lights come on after the
reboot, the device could be dead or malfunctioning. However, if you get red lights, or
a power light but no connection light, your ISP is likely experiencing disruption.

cable.jpg
Windows includes some built-in troubleshooters that can automatically find and fix
issues. To run the troubleshooter for network problems, right-click the network icon in
your System Tray and choose Troubleshoot Problems. Once the troubleshooter runs,
it could fix issues, find issues but fail to fix them, or find nothing.
If the troubleshooter finds a problem that it fixes, try to connect again. If you get a
specific error or problem name that Windows can’t fix automatically, take note of it for
later research.
https://static.makeuseof.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Windows-Network-
Troubleshooter.png
At this point, you’ve verified that the problem is not temporary and that all your
hardware works. Since Windows can’t fix the problem on its own, we need to
pinpoint the spot along the connection where the problem is occurring.
It’s a good idea to make sure that you don’t have any strange IP settings
selected. To check this, open Settings and go to Network & Internet > Status.
Below the Change your network settings header, choose Change adapter
options. In the resulting window, double-click the name of your network.
https://static.makeuseof.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Windows-10-Open-
Network-Settings.png
Unless you’ve set up a static IP (if you don’t know what this is, you probably
don’t use one), make sure you have both Obtain an IP address automatically
and Obtain DNS server address automatically checked. Repeat this process for
Internet Protocol Version 6 to ensure everything is automatic there, as well.
https://static.makeuseof.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/IP-Version-4.png
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
Should you still have a 169.x.x.x address after typing the above commands and
ipconfig again, your machine still isn’t receiving an IP from the router. Try
plugging your PC directly into the modem with an Ethernet cable and see if you
can get online. If so, your router is the problem.
https://static.makeuseof.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Windows-Ping-
Command.png
If your IP address starts with anything other than 169 when you run ipconfig, you
have a valid IP address from your router. At this point, you’ve confirmed the
problem is somewhere between your router and the internet.
Type this command to ping Google’s DNS servers to see if you can get online
(you can replace 8.8.8.8 with anything, such as www.msn.com):
ping 8.8.8.8
This will send four packets to Google. If they fail to send, you’ll see some basic
info about the failure. In case you want to continue pinging indefinitely so you
can monitor it while troubleshooting, just add a -t to the end, like so:
ping 8.8.8.8 –t
You can press Ctrl + C to stop pinging at any time. For more information, type
this command to trace the route between your computer and Google’s DNS
servers:
tracert 8.8.8.8
The above command gives you a step-by-step breakdown of the path the
information takes to reach the destination you specify. Watch it, and if it fails,
check to see where the problem occurs. If an error pops up early in the route,
the issue is likely with your local network.
Using your smartphone will prove useful here, as you can look up an outage
map (like DownDetector.com) for your provider or check Twitter to see if others
in your area are experiencing issues as well. If you don’t see anything of note
online, try giving your ISP a call to see if there are known issues. Perhaps line
issues are affecting a small area; a representative should be able to run tests to
check.
If your ISP is aware of the issues, hopefully they’ll get everything fixed in a short
time. Meanwhile, you can take the opportunity to enjoy reading a book, going for
a walk, or something else that’s offline.

Of all the types of computer problems you can have, network issues are one of the
worst. Though our computers can do a lot offline, being cut off from the internet isn’t
fun. Even worse, when you can’t get online, it’s not easy to research fixes for your
problem.
Let’s step through the basic process of how to troubleshoot network connectivity
problems. That way, next time you open up your web browser to a Cannot Connect
message, you’ll know what to do. Like all troubleshooting, we’ll start broadly and
narrow down to specifics.
After each step, attempt to connect to a website to verify your connection is working.
If it still doesn’t work, continue to the next part.
1. Power Cycle Everything and Check Other Devices
There’s no need to get upset right away, as the fix to your problem might be as

it’s your first response to network problems, too.

3. Run the Windows Network Troubleshooter
Windows includes some built-in troubleshooters that can automatically find and fix
issues. To run the troubleshooter for network problems, right-click the network icon in
your System Tray and choose Troubleshoot Problems. Once the troubleshooter runs,
it could fix issues, find issues but fail to fix them, or find nothing.
If the troubleshooter finds a problem that it fixes, try to connect again. If you get a
specific error or problem name that Windows can’t fix automatically, take note of it for
later research.
https://static.makeuseof.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/Windows-Network-
Troubleshooter.png
At this point, you’ve verified that the problem is not temporary and that all your
hardware works. Since Windows can’t fix the problem on its own, we need to
pinpoint the spot along the connection where the problem is occurring.
It’s a good idea to make sure that you don’t have any strange IP settings
selected. To check this, open Settings and go to Network & Internet > Status.
Below the Change your network settings header, choose Change adapter
options. In the resulting window, double-click the name of your network.
Unless you’ve set up a static IP (if you don’t know what this is, you probably
don’t use one), make sure you have both Obtain an IP address automatically
and Obtain DNS server address automatically checked. Repeat this process for
Internet Protocol Version 6 to ensure everything is automatic there, as well.
https://static.makeuseof.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/IP-Version-4.png
If IPv4 Address starts with 169.x.x.x, your computer is not receiving a valid IP
address from your router. Typing the following two commands will release your
computer’s current IP address and request a new one, which may resolve this:
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
Should you still have a 169.x.x.x address after typing the above commands and
ipconfig again, your machine still isn’t receiving an IP from the router. Try
plugging your PC directly into the modem with an Ethernet cable and see if you
can get online. If so, your router is the problem.
If your IP address starts with anything other than 169 when you run ipconfig, you
have a valid IP address from your router. At this point, you’ve confirmed the
problem is somewhere between your router and the internet.
Type this command to ping Google’s DNS servers to see if you can get online
(you can replace 8.8.8.8 with anything, such as www.msn.com):
ping 8.8.8.8
This will send four packets to Google. If they fail to send, you’ll see some basic
info about the failure. In case you want to continue pinging indefinitely so you
can monitor it while troubleshooting, just add a -t to the end, like so:
ping 8.8.8.8 –t
You can press Ctrl + C to stop pinging at any time. For more information, type

The above command gives you a step-by-step breakdown of the path the
information takes to reach the destination you specify. Watch it, and if it fails,
check to see where the problem occurs. If an error pops up early in the route,
the issue is likely with your local network.
Should all the above steps complete successfully, you’ve now verified that your
equipment is working and confirmed you have a valid IP address from the
router. Also, you’re sure that the problem is occurring outside of the network for
multiple devices. If this is the case, your next best option is to find out if your ISP
is having issues.
Using your smartphone will prove useful here, as you can look up an outage
map (like DownDetector.com) for your provider or check Twitter to see if others
in your area are experiencing issues as well. If you don’t see anything of note
online, try giving your ISP a call to see if there are known issues. Perhaps line
issues are affecting a small area; a representative should be able to run tests to
check.
7. Wait the Network Problems Out
Once you’ve let your ISP know of the issue and confirmed that it’s not just one
computer having a problem, all you can do is wait. Many times, you can’t fix
network issues on your own.
If your ISP is aware of the issues, hopefully they’ll get everything fixed in a short
time. Meanwhile, you can take the opportunity to enjoy reading a book, going for
a walk, or something else that’s offline.

Has your computer ever refused to turn on when you hit the power button? Or maybe
it turned on, but only to display a blue screen? The best (really the worst) is when
you’ve been working on a document or presentation all day, and your hard drive
crashes.
D. Abstraction If this has yet to happen to you, you’re likely overdue. The following signs indicate
( minutes) your computer may be close to death:
If you fail to plan, you plan to fail. Like a Boy Scout, be prepared. Here are a few
things to keep in mind to prepare you and/or avoid issues with your computer.
4. Back up your data. There are many options for real-time automatic
backups to the cloud, as well as for local backup. Combine both, and
you’ll never lose your data.
5. Back up your set-up. A great way to do this is by using something like
Belarc Advisor, a free program, to take a snapshot of all your software
and serial numbers. Set a monthly reminder to take two minutes and
do this manually. It will provide an easy guide of what to install when
you replace your computer.
6. Replace your personal computer every two to three years. If you are a
casual user, you can ignore this. But if you’re on your PC for four or
more hours a day, it will need to be replaced eventually. And setting
up your new PC will be far easier to do if the old one is still functioning.
7. Computers are like shoes. They wear out, and replacing is preferable
to repairing. And like shoes, once you break your new computer in,
you’ll be happy.
These days, more and more people are using computers to store memories,
important documents, and various other bits of information that may need to be kept
for long periods of time. Backing up a computer is essential for keeping long term (or
even short term) documents around.

2.jpg/aid37647-v4-728px-Back-up-a-Computer-Step-1-Version-2.jpg.webp
3. Configure Advanced Settings. Once the program has opened, you may
wish to alter some of the settings in the Advanced Settings section,
accessed on the left. This will allow you to change how often the computer
makes a backup, how long files are kept, and how much space is allowed
to be taken up.
4. Select a backup drive. With the settings configured, make sure that the
correct backup drive is selected (the external drive should be chosen by
default).
5. Click “Turn on”. With all of the settings entered correctly, click “Turn on”.
This should start the process. Be aware that the first backup can take quite
some time and you may wish to begin the process at night or before you
leave for work, so that you will not have to use the computer during the time
that it is working. That’s it: you’re done!
Group work:
Group your class into 4. Assign them in one PC and let them Apply the steps on how
to back up your computer data. Give them 10 mins to perform the steps. Let the
group demomstrate in front of the class the steps of back uping computer data.

1. Lag Computer performance due to Insuficient Random Access Memory.
( minutes)
2. Hard Disk Drive Failure
Day 2
3. Sound card Failure; No Sound
4. Graphics Card Failure; No Display
When you purchase a computer, it will come with an adequate amount of RAM or
Random. Access Memory to run the operating system and all software that is installed.
However,as you install more software, your PC will begin to slowdown. The amount of.
RAM you need depends on your operating system on all applications you may be
running on your computer at any one time.
Installing memory is one of the easiest tasks. Take the time to first be sure you have
the right RAM for your computer. If you're in doubt take it back to the place of purchase
and be sure you have the right RAM.
After being certain you have the right RAM, you're ready to open the system unit and
begin. But first, you need to remove static electricity. Watch this short video about
installing RAM Memory on the motherboard. Remove static electricity before you
remove the new memory from its protective wrap. Its best to purchase a Wrist Strap if
you plan on working in your PC often. But if not, you can simply touch a door knob or
your computer's metal case to remove the static electricity. To install your new Ram,
perform the following.
Check to see if you have ample light. You may want to have a container to place small
screws in. The system unit cover may have small screws and you don't want to lose
them. After you have plenty of work space and ample lighting, prepare your mind as
well. Make this and every other adventure of working on your computer educational and
fun. Take the time to study the actual components inside your computer. You'll be glad
you did should something go wrong. Follow these steps to install your drive.
1. Turn off your computer and unplug all peripherals. Take notice of how you
unplug or disconnect any devices. Locate the RAM on the motherboard.
2. Remove the side panel of the tower system or the cover if you have a desktop.
Place the panel in a safe place well out of the way.
3. Before touching anything inside the system unit, remove electrical static charge.
From your body by touching a door knob or any unpainted metal surface.
4. Remove the new memory from its protective wrapping and locate the sockets or
memory banks to install the new memory chips.
5. Notice the type of retaining clips that hold the chips in place. Remove any old
chips you intend to move.
Now to be sure you won't damage the chips, ground yourself again to remove any
remaining static electricity.
6. Pull the retaining clip open and carefully slide the RAM Chips in their memory
banks. Push the clips back over the new memory chips.
7. Check and double check the firmness of the chips by gently trying to move the
from side to side. Take a good long look at the chips for anything that looks
unusual.
8. Replace the system unit cover and reconnect all peripherals. Reboot the
computer and the operating system should recognize your new or added
memory without any problem.
It’s that easy when it comes to installing new or more memory. Read your computer's
manual first to find out what type of ram memory you have and what is needed for
upgrades.
Take time to Visit the Kingston Memory site above and use their memory configurator
to find out the memory you need to upgrade your computer.
And go ahead and enjoy the faster speed you should experience once your new
memory is installed. Don't forget to run scandisk, defragment, and disk cleanup to clean
your hard drive of extra space.
2. Get More Computer Storage By Installing A Larger Hard Drive.
Your Hard Drive is one of those components inside your computer that is mostly likely
to fail as the system gets older. This is because it is a mechanical device that uses
motors, and other moving parts that are guaranteed to wear out.
Before you remove the system unit cover to gain access to your hard drive, remember
tor remove any and all ESD (Electrical Static Discharge) from your body. This is done
by touching an object such as a doorknob or the case of the system unit. After this
safety precaution is done, remove the system unit cover and locate the drive.
Depending on the location of old your Hard Drive, you may have to remove other
components just to have access to it. If so, take very good notes of everything you
disconnect or remove, you can refer to them later as you replace the components.
Look to be sure you have empty drive bays to install extra drives should you decide to
add a second drive.
Once the drive is clear of other cables and components, carefully remove the power
and data cable from the drive and remove the drive retaining screws. Some drives are
mounted on rails, if this is the case, just slide the unit out through the front or top of the
system unit chassis.
Separate the drive from the rail and now install the new drive to the rail. Watch those
screws, they are small and can be easily lost. Remember to ground yourself from time
to time to remove electrical static buildup. Watch this short video to see the Drive being
installed in the system unit.
When the drive is mounted on the rail, (if you have one) write down any information on
the front of the drive that may give you the type, model number, sectors, cylinders,
access time and other information that seem important. You may need it when you
configure the hard drive. Nearly all new hard drives have software that does this for you.
After being certain that all cables, connections and all other components are in place,
replace the system unit cover, reconnect all peripherals to the system unit and plug it
into the wall outlet.
Turn on the computer. Now you will need to tell the computer that it has a new or
different hard drive. You will have to start your PC with a bootable floppy disk if you
replaced or installed a new hard drive.
If your new drive came with a owner's manual, keep it handy for future reference and
you may need it to config your drive. Even though you have installed the drive with its
cable, the computer doesn't know that you have done this. So we must tell the PC and
while we are at it, we must make the drive useable by partitioning and formatting it.
Your Hard is a delicate device and will wear out soon. Learn about the types of Hard
Drives, how to remove and install them quickly. Doing so will save you on downtime
with your computer and you'll earn extra cash by installing new drives for your relatives
and friends.
1. You check to see if the speakers have power. Don't take this for granted. It does
happen that the speakers have no power or the volume was turned down.
2. Check to audio cables that connect the speakers to the computer. Check to be
sure these cables are secure and that the audio connector at the rear of the
system unit is inserted into the right connector. These connections are color coded
on new cards.
3. Check the possibility that your speakers may be on the blink. Although the
speakers very rarely fail, it is a possibility that should not be overlooked.
4. Before replacing the system unit cover, check and double check to see if the card
is fully inserted into the PCI Slot. Its a possibility the card may have crepted out of
the slot if it was not properly secured to the case.
5. After replacing the system unit cover, reconnecting all peripherals, and turning on
the computer, check the Windows system folder to see if there are problems with
the device drivers which are small software used to allow the sound card to
communicate to the computer.
After you have performed these procedures and the sound card is not working at all,
remove the card from the computer and try inserting in another system. As a last resort,
you maybe able to save the purchase of another card, when there was no need.
4. Graphics Card Problem Solving
When you have problems with your video display, it can be something as simple as
having the brightness turned down to a bad controller on the motherboard. If you have
not done, first learn to identify the components of the video display system.
When you look inside any open computer, see if you can locate the Video Card. Is your
video card mounted in an adapter slot or is it integrated onto the motherboard. If the
card is motherboard integrated, locate the jumpers that will allow the card to be disabled
should you need to install another card.
The Monitor is the second component in the video display and it must be compatible
with your video card. Be sure the maximum resolution of your video card and monitor
are the same. It’s even better to your a higher resolution display on your monitor.

When Windows fails to boot it is normally caused by you installing a program or device
and it has caused a conflict with one or more other programs. This will no doubt give
you plenty of heartache if you're not certain which program caused Windows to not boot
up.
If you recently installed a program or application and know where it was installed, you
maybe in much better shape as for as correcting the error. Here are common ways to
correct the problem of your computer not completely booting up or not booting up at all.
If your computer will not boot-up at all, hopefully you have made a good emergency
boot disk. You can always make a windows startup disk by creating one from another
computer running Windows 98 or Me. Perform the following if your computer.
1. Put your boot floppy disk in the floppy drive and turn on the PC. On some
computers, you may have to access the bios and select the Boot priority to
your A: drive.
2. Save any changes and select "Start Computer without CDROM support"
and press Enter. Once you are at the A> prompt,type dir c: and press enter.
3. If your programs and other files are present,try restoring your system
Registry by following the steps below. This may repair Windows,the
Config.Sys and autoexec.bat files to where the PC may boot up normally.
When the files are present,its a good indication of a good hard drive.
4. To correct the problem of your computer not booting up,type in "fdisk /mbr"
and press Enter to restore your master boot record. Type "Scandisk C:" to
check the hard drive for errors that have occurred. You can also type "Sys
C:" to hopefully restore files needed to boot up your computer.
5. If the above procedures fail to repair your computer,you can repeat the first
part of step one above and select "Start Computer With CDROM Support"
re-install Windows.
Cause:
Typically caused by driver/hardware conflict.
Solution:
Take a look at the dump file to figure out exactly what cause of the error is.
Alternatively, updated hardware drivers or consider the situation in which
BSOD happened (for example, you’ve installed new hardware/software).
Also, you might want to run Hardware Diagnostic.
Cause:
Typically caused by incomplete software/program installation.
Solution:
Reinstall Software.
Find the missing DLL and copy it to system32 and or SysWOW6432 folder.
Register DLL if needed through CMD. Example: regsvr32 “name of DLL”.
Cause:
Not enough drive space.
Newer version already installed.
You didn’t install prerequisite software (for example, vc_redist.x64, MS .Net,
or DirectX).
Not compatible with OS.
Solution:
Free up space on HD.
Look for previous installation of newer software. Install all prerequisites.
Acquire compatible OS.
Cause:
Lack of resources (RAM, CPU, HD).
Virus/Malware infection.
Missing Updates.
Solution:
Open Task Manager and look for RAM/Virtual Memory allocation (any
applications use all of the RAM? Adjust VMemory if necessary).
Check CPU usage levels.
Check your HD space.
Through Task Manager check the System Processes and look for sketchy
names using a lot of CPU/RAM (Virus can have similar name to common
Windows components).
Perform Full System Scan for Viruses.
If you have a Virus that you can’t remove-consider OS reimage/reinstall.
Install all updates for your computer/let them finish/reboot (updates can take
up resources and time).
Note: You can also upgrade to an SSD storage for a huge boost in OS
performance (link in description)
Cause:
Software or Windows Updates.
Virus.
Solution:
Let the Windows Updates Finish (Windows updates alone can restart many
times and take a long time).
Run Virus Scan (check issue 4 for steps).
Cause:
Virus infection or HARD DRIVE going bad.
Solution:
Run Virus Scan (check issue 4 for steps).
Check Windows System logs for NTFS system errors/or other HD related
logs.
Replace HD if necessary.
Cause:
Page is missing/deleted.
Wrong Website Link.
Website is down.
Solution:
Cause:
Too many downloads at the same time.
Too many computers sharing internet connection.
BAD Wifi signal.
Virus/Malware infection.
Solution:
Limit Downloads.
If too many people are sharing internet you can limit/set max speed in router
for even distribution of bandwidth.
Check Wifi signal/distance and adjust in router settings.
Check PC for Virus/Malware.
Reset Router.
Call Internet Provided.
I’m sure there are other possible solutions out there for any of these situations
and if you know them please share them so that we can all learn about them.
Group work:
Let each group do the following:
Group your students into 9. Give them 5 mins to huddle or discuss among
themselves. By using MS Powerpoint let them encode the step/sulotion on the
assigned computer systems and networks deffect. Give them 10 mins to

D. Abstraction
( minutes) 1. Duplicate IP Address
2. NIC got damaged or not placed well.
3. No Network Access Issue
Day 2
In today’s world, every organization relies upon a good and hassle free Computer
Network to maintain a good flow of data or information exchange. A Computer Network
is the cornerstone of every organization used to share or exchange information which
can be a image, text, video, sound clip or any other type of media or file. But it’s very
embarrassing when we face some technical problems in our network which hampers
our work. Here I am sharing some common network issues and some steps to come up
with those issues.
Duplicate IP AddressSometimes, more than one PC is trying to use same IP address
by manual confirmation mistake, this can cause network issue with the parent network
of computer or also it can intermittent network communications
http://www.shoutech.in/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Duplicate-IP-Address.jpg
Solution: – Always try to find and assign a unique IP address for your PC or every
computer system.
NIC (Network Interface Card) is the most vital component of computer network is
responsible for creating a temporary connection of your computer to a computer
network.
http://www.shoutech.in/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Damaged-NIC.jpg
Solution: – For NIC issue check your NIC to find whether it is good or damaged or
installed properly or not. And you can also do ping the computers and analyse the
problem and change the settings according to your problems or requirements.
No Network Access Issue
Sometimes we see “No Network Access” icon in our working computers or either we
see a HTTP 504 web server error code.
http://www.shoutech.in/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/No-Network-Access.png
Solution: – To solve this problem, check each and every component and wires are
connected properly and if not then connect it properly or reset all the connections. You
can also check the Hub or Router settings and if anything wrong is there just correct it
or else you can restart the whole setup or connection.
Check Firewall Restrictions or Settings
Sometimes, Firewall will restrict and disallow the network access or file sharing between
the computers in your network. That’s due to firewall restrictions which encounters no
network issue or deny the network communication. Firewalls are responsible to protect
your PC from threats or malware which can be come into your PC over internet or other
network sources.
http://www.shoutech.in/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Firewall.png
Solution: – Change your computer’s firewall settings and enable it for accessing network
sharing and services. Then you’ll be able to connect, share and receive files, data or
other media files from your networking system.
Slow Internet or Network Speed
You noticed some glitches in speed like slow internet or data transmission over the
network then most of time usually people thought that they’ve excesses the data limit.
This is also true but sometimes, it causes due to improper planning of network which
causes the slower internet speed or data transmission over the network.
http://www.shoutech.in/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/slow-internet-connection.jpg
Solution: – Make sure that all the peripherals are connected and working properly. Use
file compression technologies to reduce the burden of bulky files on network. Find and
analyze the users to allocate network bandwidth according to the user’s needs to avoid
excessive use of bandwidth or network space. And check your network card, is it
updated or working properly or not, if anything is wrong then correct or replace it for a
smoother networking performance.
You have noticed regular network connection failures or drops in network connections.
Some physical damage of cables or wrong setup of network peripherals might be
responsible for this.
Solution: – Check and identify the faulty areas, and if you see any cut or noise in
cables then cut or replace it. Check to ensure the correct setup of routers, hubs and
other network peripherals, and if anything is wrong there just correct it for a smooth
networking experience.
Before you will conduct this activity make it sure that the learnerss are wearing the
personal protective equipments used in Computer Hardware Servicing.
