Lesson 1: Computer Disassembly and Reassembly


In this lesson, we look at the tools and practices required by a computer technician to physically take apart a computer and successfully put it back together. Although this lesson mentions software that you should have and know how to use, software is covered more deeply in Chapters 15, "Software: MS-DOS and Windows 3.x," and 16, "Windows 95 and Beyond."

After this lesson, you will be able to:
  • Develop a systematic and logical approach to repairing a computer.
  • Identify and describe the basic tools and procedures for working on a computer.
  • Identify basic procedures for adding and removing computer components.
Estimated lesson time: 20 minutes
