    Study Notes

    Computer Maintenance

    • Figure 1 depicts an excessive amount of dust on a computer's motherboard, indicating a potential problem.
    • Foam swabs are used to clean dust from hard-to-reach areas like cooling fans.
    • Vacuum cleaners help remove accumulated dust from components within a computer.
    • Tweezers are helpful in retrieving dropped small items inside a computer.

    Post (Power On Self Test)

    • The POST tests components like the keyboard, dynamic RAM, and video memory.

    System Failure

    • A system failure can be caused by hardware failures or severe software issues.
    • A logic error is a bug in a program causing incorrect operation without crashing the program.
    • A CMOS checksum error is a specific type of system failure indicating a problem with the CMOS memory, which stores BIOS settings.

    Troubleshooting

    • Open-ended questioning encourages users to describe the problem, helping technicians understand the issue.
    • Capacitor plague is a common premature failure of specific electrolytic capacitors.

    Complaint Handling

    • Key steps for complaint handling include:
      • Gathering customer details
      • Taking agreed actions or referring the complaint to the appropriate person
      • Ensuring frontline staff know how to handle complaints or to whom to refer them.

    Backups

    • Backups create an archive of computer data, enabling restoration after a data loss event.
    • The purpose of backups is to recover data after its loss due to deletion or corruption.
    • A differential backup backs up data that has changed since the last full backup, providing an efficient way to organize data into increments of change.

    Reshoring

    • Reshoring refers to bringing insourcing or outsourcing activities back to the home country.

    Bad Memory Problems

    • Symptoms of bad memory can include random computer reboots and failure to boot, potentially accompanied by beep codes.

    Report Writing
