Learning Objective/s:
Introduction:
5. Be careful with tools that may cause short circuit. Wear rubber sole
shoes when standing on the ground or in a concrete floor.

6. Always power off and unplug the computer before working on it.
When making circuit changes switch off and unplug the power cord
from the equipment then discharge the capacitors.
8. Hold the components by the edges and do not touch the IC’s.
10. Do not use excessive force if things don’t quite slip into place.
SAFETY GUIDELINES
Static Control
1. Anything that moves or rub against anything else has the potential to
generate static electricity.
(Example: Household appliances or own feet moving on the floor)
2. A spark resulting from a poor electrical connection or an unshielded
or damage cable.
3
a) A new component/ replacement don’t work.
b) You’ve just carried an upgrade/ repair and previously working
component is no longer working.
c) A new component/s fails within one or two ears of installation.
Electricity Control
- PCs and their peripherals use raw alternating current (AC) as power
source. Although the myriad of plugs, outlets, and line cords use
today are generally regarded as quite safe to end-users, technicians
must open work in close proximity to exposed circuitry. In reality, the
odds of electrocution are actually quite slim, but electricity can injure
or kill when handles carelessly.

Uses & Functions of the Basic Tools, Equipments and Testing Instruments
Learning Objective/s:
Introduction:
1. How do you select the best tool for the job? First, know and
understand in detail the scope of work to be accomplished, second,
plan for the scope taking into account the sequence of tasks.
2. Selecting the best tool for each task requires training in the proper
use of the tools, field experience in their safe use, and following the
manufacturer’s guidance and instructions for that specific tool.
3. When obtaining the tool all the associated tooling and consumable
parts, as recommended by the manufacturer, must be included. In
addition, related consumable parts must also be selected and used
according to their manufacturer’s instructions.
7
Safe Use of tools
Once selected, use the tool for the purpose for which it was designed. Not
all tools come with detailed instructions, but there are those that do spell
out the safety ―Do’s and Don’ts‖ for the your safety. If there are set-
up/use options, operator judgment must always be based on what is the
safest way to use the tool.
• Each tool be examined before use AND damaged or defective tools NOT to
be used
• The right protective equipment for the tool and activity be used
HARDWARE TOOLS
different types of jobs. Hardware tools are grouped into these four
categories:

work mats used with antistatic wrist straps provide the most basic means
for the
Hand Tools
9
Torx screwdriver - used to loosen or tighten screws
that have a star-like depression on the top, a feature
that is mainly found on laptop.
10
Cleaning Tools
Using these tools ensures that computer components are not damaged
during cleaning.
Examples:
Diagnostic Tools
Computers are easier to use and more dependable with each new
generation of hardware and operating system update, but that doesn't
mean they're problem-free. Here's the most popular tools for diagnosing
your computer problems:

Lint-free cloth – used to clean different computer
components without scratching or leaving debris.

B. MULTIPLE CHOICE
Direction. Select the letter of the correct answer. Write your answers on a
separate sheet of paper.
5. Which tool is used to retrieve parts from location that are too small for
your hand to fit?
Learning Objective/s:
Digital computers are classified by size and computing power. The largest
computers are called Mainframes. These computers are expensive, having
extensive memory and high-speed calculating capabilities. Smaller scale
computers – the minicomputer and microcomputer – are more widely
used. Even though they represent a small percentage of the total computer
dollars invested, small-scale computers represent the largest number of
computers in use. The Microcomputer is the smallest and least expensive
of the digital computers that still retains all the features and
characteristics of a computer.

Computers are also classified by function. The most common function is
data processing. Industry, business, and government use computers to
maintain records, perform accounting tasks, keep inventory, and provide a
wide variety of other data processing functions.

What is a Computer?
Educators can use the computer to write lesson plans, notices, and letters,
make visual aids, create presentations and share and collaborate with
other teachers from around the world.

How a Computer Works
Input devices:
Input devices give/enter information into the PC's System Unit.
Common types of input devices are the following:
Keyboard
Mouse
Trackball
Joystick
Scanners
Digital Cameras
Web cam
Pen or Stylus
Touch Screen
Touch Pad
Barcode Reader
Card Reader

System Unit:
Is the box which contains the CPU and RAM. It is where the
information from the input devices gets processed.
Output devices:
The CPU sends signals to the output devices. The output devices
then display the information. Common output devices are the following

PROCEDURE
22
2. Open and prepare the case
Most power supplies are a standard size and should fit nicely in
the case. Just make sure the fan is unobstructed and the screw holes
in the power supply line up with the screw holes in the case.
23
Installing the Risers
Locate the bag of screws that came with your case and
take out the motherboard risers.
Riser
You will need as many risers as there are holes in
the motherboard.
24
decide where you will be putting your drive or
drives.
The last thing you need to do to prepare the case is make sure
there are open slots to accommodate the motherboard's various ports
as well as the ports that will be there when all the cards are installed.
If the motherboard came with one, then replace the existing one
on the case with that one. Make sure the round keyboard and mouse
port holes are towards the top of the case, this will ensure they will
line up correctly once you put the motherboard in.
25
When installing most computer parts, and especially the
motherboard, you must remember that you shouldn't force anything in,
but you can't be too timid as to not apply enough pressure to make
things fit.
26
Installation of a slot processor is a little easier than a socket CPU since all
you have to do is plug it in. There is only one way to plug it in and there
are guide rails to make sure it goes in securely
To determine which slots the memory will go into, please consult your
motherboard manual. Each motherboard may be different as to how
many slots need to be taken, and in which order.

6. Install the Hard Drive
Configure the jumper setting of your Hard Drive with the IDE
Buswire (Master & Slave configuration)
The best way to situate the hard drive in there is to orient it so the
pins and plug are facing towards the inside of the computer.

the video card into is called an AGP slot. The
process for inserting this card is the same as all
the other cards aside from the fact that it goes in a
different kind of slot.
Make sure the card is seated well in the slot by pushing down
on the edge of it along its length. It should feel secure in there, and
the back end of the card should be lined up with the empty slot on the
back of the computer.
When you're ready to physically install the drive, just slide it into
the bay you've selected for it. Everything should go smoothly; if it doesn't then
you should check for any obstructions that may be blocking it.
Once the front of the drive is flush with the case you're ready to
secure it with screws. Sometimes the CD/DVD drives come with a bag
of four small screws. Once you secure the drive with all four screws
you're ready to connect all the devices with the IDE cable.
28
Install the Floppy Drive
Now that you have all the devices in the computer, you're ready to
connect all of them.
1. Motherboard
3. Floppy Drive
29
This connector makes sure the buttons and lights on the front of
your panel know how to work. It also powers the speaker that makes that
"beep" sound when you turn on your computer. Each motherboard may
be different but the instructions will look very similar to what is shown
below.
This step will provide a checklist for you to go over, making sure
that all your cables are properly connected and secure:
Check List
1. Make sure all the cards are seated well and screwed in

Applying 5s on your computer
Digital files are no different than paper files, and if you don't have a
good method of organization, things get lost. Whether you save your files
in your computer's hard drive or a shared network location, this course
will help you save time and headache of searching for files.
