 Information Sheet 4.2-1

Procedures in Maintaining Computer Systems

Learning Objectives:
After reading this information sheet, you should be able to:
 Identify and follow procedures in maintaining computer
systems.
 Perform maintenance and cleaning of computer system
following the scheduled/periodic maintenance.
 Maintain computer systems properly.

Introductions

Computers are expensive, and with all major purchases you probably
want to protect your investment. Luckily, it is not difficult to keep your
computer healthy and in good working order. Maintaining a computer
involves three things: keeping it physically clean, protecting it from malware,
and backing up important files.
A properly maintained computer will provide you with substantially
higher speeds, both via RAM and on the internet, regardless of your
hardware setup and configurations. In computer systems, both hardware
and software components should properly maintained. Maintained computer
systems increases efficiency and save you the hassle and expenses
associated with major repairs. To keep your computer in working condition
requires occasional maintenance. Using utilities like Disk Cleanup and Disk
defragmenter that re built into the windows operating system are easy ways
to keep your computer running efficiently.

The following are the procedures on how to maintain computer system:

1. Create an equipment maintenance schedule. In order to perform
the maintenance of your computer efficiently, a maintenance
schedule is made to guide the personnel in the proper maintenance
procedure. This will help them remember the maintenance task
that needs to be done in order to improve the functionality of the
computer system and networks.
2. Create a maintenance checklist. To determine if the maintenance
program is implemented according to what is planned, an
assessment must be done. The result of the assessment will then
COMPUTER HARDWARE Date Developed: Document No:
SERVICING NC II Revision No:
May 4, 2015
Developed by: Issued By: Page 24 of 223
Maintain Computer Systems and
Network Bryan A. Bautista
 be recorded and recorded to the proper authorities for the
immediate action.
Below is a sample Maintenance Inspection Checklist. This checklist
will confirm if the maintenance activities have been performed in order to
prolong the life of this particular equipment. The inspection items are stated
in a question form as these serve as the criteria or standards of
maintenance.

3. Perform the computer maintenance task regularly. Just

knowing all the basics of computer maintenance task schedule
clearly will not do any good. We should find time to apply all of
them regularly and frequently. Let's make the computer
maintenance activities a regular practice, so that we always have a
fine tuned computer with a good performance.

Maintaining Computer Systems

1. Keep your computer physically clean

When dealing with computers, dust isn't just unattractive, it can

potentially destroy parts of your computer. By cleaning your computer
regularly, you can help to keep it working properly and avoid expensive
repairs.

  Cleaning the keyboard
A dirty keyboard doesn't look nice and can cause your keyboard to not
work properly. Dust, food, liquid, and other particles can get stuck
underneath the keys, which can prevent them from working properly. Check
your owner's manual to see if the manufacturer has provided you with
instructions for your specific keyboard. If so, follow them. If not, the
following steps are basic cleaning tips that 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.
2. Turn the keyboard upside down, and gently shake it to remove dirt
and dust.
3. Use a can of compressed air to clean between the keys.
4. Moisten a cotton cloth or paper towel with rubbing alcohol, and use it
to clean the tops of the keys. Do not pour alcohol or any other liquid
directly onto the keys.
5. Reconnect the keyboard to the computer once it is dry. If you are
connecting it to a PS/2 port, you will before turning on the computer.

 Cleaning the mouse

There are two main types of mice: optical and mechanical. Each is
cleaned in basically the same way, although the mechanical mouse requires
a bit more work.
Optical mice require no internal cleaning because there aren't any
rotating parts; however, they can dust collects near the light emitter. This
can cause erratic cursor movement or prevent the mouse from working
properly.

Optical Mouse

SERVICING NC II Revision No:
May 4, 2015
Developed by: Issued By: Page 26 of 223
Maintain Computer Systems and
Network Bryan A. Bautista
Mechanical mice are especially susceptible to dust and particles that can
accumulate inside the mouse, which can make it difficult to track or move
properly. If the mouse pointer does not move smoothly, the mouse may need
to be cleaned.

Mechanical Mouse

Before you clean your mouse, check the owner's manual to see if the
manufacturer has provided you with instructions for your specific mouse. If
so, follow those instructions. If not, the following steps are basic cleaning
tips clean:
1. Unplug the mouse from the USB or PS/2 port. If the mouse is plugged
into the PS/2 port, you will need to shut down the computer before
unplugging it.
2. Moisten a cotton cloth with rubbing alcohol, and use it to clean the
top and bottom of the mouse.
3. If you have a mechanical mouse, remove the tracking ball by turning
the ball-cover ring counterclockwise. Then clean the tracking ball and
the inside of the mouse with a cotton cloth moistened with rubbing
alcohol.
4. Let all of the parts dry before reassembling and reconnecting the
mouse. If you are connecting it to a PS/2 port, you will need to
connect it before turning on the computer.

 Cleaning the monitor

Dirt, fingerprints, and dust can make your computer screen difficult
to read; however, it's easy to clean your screen when needed. Although there
are monitor-cleaning kits you can buy, they may damage your monitor if
they are designed for a different type of monitor. For example, a monitor
cleaner that is designed for glass screens may not work with some nonglass
LCD screens.

COMPUTER HARDWARE Date Developed: Document No:

SERVICING NC II Revision No:
May 4, 2015
Developed by: Issued By: Page 27 of 223
Maintain Computer Systems and
Network Bryan A. Bautista
 The safest method is simply to use a soft clean cloth moistened with
water. The following steps are basic cleaning tips that can help keep your
monitor clean:
1. Turn off the computer.
2. Unplug the monitor from the power. If you are using a laptop, unplug
the laptop.
3. Use a soft clean cloth moistened with water to wipe the screen clean.

Note:
1. Do not use glass cleaner to clean a monitor. Many screens have anti-
glare coatings that can be damaged by glass cleaner.
2. Do not spray any liquids directly onto the screen. The liquid could leak
into the monitor and damage the internal components.

Tips for cleaning other computer surfaces

 Dust is your computer's main enemy. Use an antistatic wipe to lightly

dust your computer casing. Don't use furniture cleaners or strong
solvents.
 Use a can of compressed air with a narrow nozzle to blow out debris
from the air intake slots.
 Spray cleaning solution like diluted ammonia cleaner or glass cleaner
on a paper towel or antistatic wipe. Clean the monitor housing and
case not the monitor screen by wiping in a downward motion.
 A safe cleaning solution for computer surfaces not computer screens
is ammonia diluted with water or glass cleaner comprised mostly of
ammonia and water (check the label). The milder the solution, the
better.

2. Protecting your computer from viruses

 Safeguarding against malware
Malware is any type of software that is designed to damage your
computer or gain unauthorized access to your personal information. It

COMPUTER HARDWARE Date Developed: Document No:

SERVICING NC II Revision No:
May 4, 2015
Developed by: Issued By: Page 28 of 223
Maintain Computer Systems and
Network Bryan A. Bautista
includes viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and spyware. Most malware is
distributed over the Internet and is often bundled with other software.
The best way to guard against malware is to install antivirus software
such as Bitdefender, Norton, or Kaspersky. Antivirus software helps to
prevent malware from being installed, and it can also remove malware from
your computer. New malware is being created all the time, so it's important
to update your antivirus software frequently. Most antivirus programs can
do this automatically, but you'll need to make sure this feature is enabled.

3. Backing up your computer

Imagine what would happen if your computer suddenly stopped

working. Would you lose any important documents, photos, or other files? It
may be possible to repair your computer, but your files may be lost forever.
Luckily, you can prevent this by creating backup copies of all of your files
(or just the important ones) on an external hard drive or an online backup
service.
 External hard drives
You can purchase an external hard drive and copy the contents of
your computer to it. The initial backup could take several hours, so you will
need to select a period of time when you do not need access to your
computer. Running the backup overnight usually works best. Follow-up
backups should be conducted on a regular basis but will not take as long
because the drive will only need to copy your most recent files.

 Online backup services

You can also back up your files to one of the online backup services
like Mozy, Carbonite, or Box, and your files will always be accessible to you.
The amount of storage space provided by these sites varies, and you may
COMPUTER HARDWARE Date Developed: Document No:
SERVICING NC II Revision No:
May 4, 2015
Developed by: Issued By: Page 29 of 223
Maintain Computer Systems and
Network Bryan A. Bautista
have to pay a monthly or yearly fee for adequate storage. Again, do your
research because these services are constantly changing and offer varying
features.

4. Other maintenance techniques

To keep your computer running smoothly, it's important to keep files
and folders uncluttered. Cluttered or unorganized folders make it more
difficult to find the files you need. Additionally, unwanted files can
eventually fill up your hard drive, which will make your computer slower
and more difficult to use. Here are a few things you can do to delete
unwanted files and improve your computer's performance.
 Delete files: If you have any unwanted files, you can delete them
manually. To do this, drag them into the Recycle Bin or Trash, then
empty it.
 Run the Disk Defragmenter: Windows includes a Disk Defragmenter
program in the Control Panel. It scans the files on your hard drive and
rearranges them so it can read them faster. If your computer is
running slowly, running Disk Defragmenter can help to speed it up.

 Run a Disk Cleanup: Windows also includes a Disk Cleanup program

in the Control Panel. It scans your computer for temporary files and
other files that can be deleted. You can then delete the files to free up
space on your hard drive.

Safety Measures in Maintaining Computer Systems

Learning Objectives:
After reading this information sheet, you should be able to:
 Identify different safety measure to be observed when working
with computer systems.
 Follow safety measures when working with computer systems.

Introductions

When working on computers, there are a number of important safety

considerations to keep in mind. In this module, you’re going to learn on how
to properly observe safety when you are working with computers.

Computer Safety Procedures

 Power
When we’re working with our computers and our computing
equipment, one of the largest safety concerns we have is working with
power. Power obviously can be very dangerous, and we want to be sure,
whether we are working on a very small computer or working inside of a
data center, that we are always mindful of the electricity.

 Power is dangerous
 Remove all power sources before working
 Don’t touch anything if you aren’t sure
 Replace entire power supply units
- Don’t repair internal components
 High voltage
- Power supplies, displays, laser printers

 Equipment Grounding
A very common safety practice that we have on all of our modern
electrical systems is a path to ground. Ground or earth is the reference

COMPUTER HARDWARE Date Developed: Document No:

SERVICING NC II Revision No:

Developed by: Issued By: Page 36 of 223
Maintain Computer Systems and
Network Bryan A. Bautista
point in an electrical circuit from which voltages are measured, a common
return path for electric current, or a direct physical connection to the Earth.
Somewhere on your building is a ground rod that all of your electrical
components will connect to. That way, if there is any type of voltage that
goes somewhere it shouldn’t be going, it’s going to go into that ground rod
rather than going into you. So obviously, that’s an extremely important
thing that we really must have on all of our electrical systems.
 Most computer products connect to ground
- Divert any electrical faults away from
people
 Also applies to equipment racks
- Large ground wire
 Don’t remove the ground connection
- It’s there to protect you

 Personal Safety
As technicians, we often find ourselves working around moving
equipment. A good example of something like a laser printer that’s designed
to pull paper through a very hot and very high-pressure environment. So if
you’re working anywhere near this type of equipment, you want to be sure to
remove any jewelry that you might have, especially around your wrists and
around your neck.
 Remove jewelry
- and name badge neck straps
 Lifting technique
- Lift your legs, keep your back straight
- Don’t carry overweight items
 Electrical fire safety
- Don’t use water of foam
- Use carbon dioxide, FM-200, or other dry chemicals
- Remove the power source
 CRT safety
- Capacitors hold high voltage
- Don’t open unless you are trained
 Cable management
- Avoid trip hazard
- Use cable ties or velcro

 Local Government Regulation

 When health and safety is involved, there are also commonly
government regulations involved as well. You want to check and make sure
that you are aware of all of the safety regulations for your particular type of
environment. Whether you’re in an office complex or a manufacturing floor
or something like a hospital, you want to be sure to apply the right
regulations and safety precautions for your particular environment.
 Health and safety laws
- Keep the work place hazard
 Building codes
- Fire prevention, electrical codes
 Environmental regulation
- High-tech waste disposal

 Information Sheet 4.2-3

Diagnose and Identify Faulty Systems

Learning Objectives:
After reading this information sheet, you should be able to:
 Identify different procedures in diagnosing and identifying faulty
systems on a computer
 Follow procedures in diagnosing and identifying faulty systems.

Introductions

Many people are faced with everyday computer problems that are easy
to fix, but are unable to diagnose the actual problem. While there are many
problems a computer will be faced with, this information sheet will tell you
where to look for common problems. Some problems may occur when there
is a new hardware connected to the computer system or when there is newly
installed software that is not compatible with the specifications of the
computer that you are using. If you have noticed any problem with your
computer, do not attempt to repair problems unless you are sure of what
you are doing, what the result will be, as well as any adverse reactions.
Always consult a competent computer technician whether you are going to
do the troubleshooting on your own or under supervision.

Procedures in Diagnosing and Identifying Faulty Systems

The following procedures will begin to narrow down common problems,
but to find a specific problem; tools or specialized techniques may need to be
used.

1. Check the POST. POST stands for Power on Self-Test. This is

generally the first or second thing that appears on a computer after
turning on the power. This appears before the operating system begins
to load. The POST will display any problems found with hardware that
makes the computer unable to boot, POST may also display problems
with hardware that allow the computer to boot, but not operate at its
full capacity during operation.

Network Bryan A. Bautista
2. Notice the load time of the OS (operating system). A longer than
usual load time may indicate seeks errors (or other errors) in the hard
drive.

3. Notice any graphics problems once the OS has loaded. Reduced

graphics may indicate driver failures or hardware failures with graphic
cards.

Maintain Computer Systems and
Network Bryan A. Bautista
4. Perform an auditory test. An auditory test is an unorthodox, but still
effective way of judging how hard a computer is working. With the
computer on and running, play any decent length audio file (usually
above 30 secs). If the audio is choppy or slow, it usually means that
the processor is working at an elevated level, or there is not enough
RAM to run all programs loading. Changing the startup sound is a
great way to apply this test. Another issue associated with choppy
sounds is PIO (Programmed Input/Output) Mode. This affects how the
hard drive reads and writes data from a drive. Switching to DMA
allows for faster reads and writes, and can sometimes repair choppy
audio.

Network Bryan A. Bautista
5. Check any newly installed hardware. Many operating systems,
especially Windows, can conflict with new drivers. The driver may be
badly written, or it may conflict with another process. Windows will
usually notify you about devices that are causing a problem, or have a
problem. To check this use the Device Manager, this can be accessed
by entering the Control Panel, clicking the System icon, clicking the
Hardware tab, and clicking on Device Manager. Use this to check and
arrange the properties of hardware.

6. Check any newly installed software. Software may require more

resources than the system can provide. Chances are that if a problem
begins after software starts, the software is causing it. If the problem
appears directly upon startup, it may be caused by software that
starts automatically on boot.

Network Bryan A. Bautista
7. Check RAM and CPU consumption. A common problem is a choppy
or sluggish system. If a system is choppy it is good practice to see if a
program is consuming more resources than the computer can provide.
An easy way to check this is to use the Task Manager, right click on
the taskbar select Task Manager, and click the Processes tab. The
CPU column contains a number that indicates the percentage of CPU
the process is consuming. The Memory Usage column indicates how
much memory a process is consuming.

8. Listen to the computer, if the hard drive is scratching or making

loud noises, shut off the computer and have a professional
diagnose the hard drive. Listen to the CPU fan, this comes on a high
speed when the CPU is working hard, and can tell you when the
computer is working beyond its capacity.

9. Run a virus and malware scan. Performance problems can be caused
by malware on the computer. Running a virus scan can unearth any
problems. Use a commonly updated virus scanner (such as Norton
Antivirus or Avast! Antivirus) and a commonly updated malware
scanner (such as Spybot Search & Destroy).

10. Check for the problem in safe mode. As a last ditch effort,
check the problem in safe mode. To enter safe mode, tap F8 repeatedly
during POST (this works on most systems). If the problem persists in
safe mode, it is a fair bet that the operating system itself is to blame.

Run Diagnostics Software

Learning Objectives:
After reading this information sheet, you should be able to:
 Identify different diagnostics software’s
 Demonstrate on how to run a diagnostics software

Introductions

When it comes to computer, a diagnostics software or diagnostic

program is a program written for the express purpose of examining the
state, or locating problems with the hardware, or operating system
environment that it is running on/in. Preferably, diagnostic programs
provide solutions to the user to solve issues. In some cases hardware
components have specific features to assist a diagnostic program to test it.
For example, most modern hard drives have commands that provide
information about some permanent error conditions. The Diagnostic
Software includes programs developed to evaluate, monitor, and optimize
your computer system.

Examples of Diagnostics Software

Your desktop computer comes with several sophisticated diagnostic
programs. Technicians use these tools to find the causes of erratic behavior
in the computer, slow operation and other problems. These programs
consist of software that is built into hardware drivers and components of the
Windows operating system. The following software programs may provide
basic system information, delete unnecessary files, fine-tune your system
settings, clean and repair your Windows Registry, and improve your
computer's performance.

POST (Power On Self-Test)

POST is a series of system checks run by computers and other
electronic devices when they are turned on. Your computer completes a
POST, every time you turn on your computer. POST performs basic
diagnostics on your computer’s memory and hard drives, checks for the

presence of a keyboard and mouse, and tests the clock and other system
settings. POST resides in a small, permanent memory area called BIOS,
which stands for Basic Input Output System; this contains compact, simple
programs the computer uses when you first turn it on. If a problem exists
with the computer’s hardware, POST signals this through coded audio
beeps. Though hardware makers have produced different versions of POST
over the years, they all ensure that the computer works correctly before it
starts the operating system.

Check Disk
The program “CHKDSK,” or Check Disk, is part of Microsoft’s
Windows software. It tests and repairs the file system information on hard
drives. For example, if you work on your computer during a storm, a sudden
power failure may shut your computer down immediately. Electrical noise
from the power line may write random data into hard drive files that were
open as you worked. This random data can corrupt the Windows file system,
making files unreadable. If Windows senses a problem with the file system,
it runs Check Disk automatically when you restart your computer; you can
run it manually from Windows Explorer or a command prompt. Check Disk
scans the file structure, looking for and reporting on problems. If you run it
in “fix” mode -- “chkdsk /f” -- the program attempts to repair any damage it
finds. Check Disk is sophisticated and fixes file system problems for the vast
majority of cases.
 Procedures on how to run a Chkdsk
1. Click on the Start Menu; click My Computer.
2. Right-click on the hard drive and select Properties.
3. Select the Tools Tab and click Check Now.
4. At the Check Disk menu, click both options (to
“Automatically fix file system errors” and “Scan for and
attempt recovery of bad sectors”).
5. Click Start.
6. A message will ask you if you want to schedule a disk check,
click Yes.
7. Close all open menus and programs.
8. Restart your computer.

Windows will run the CHKDSK utility and open your desktop when it has
finished.

 The Windows operating system runs dozens of programs on your
computer and you will seldom notice them unless problems arise. These
programs monitor the state of your printer, network, mobile devices and
other hardware. If your computer becomes unusually sluggish, the cause
may be one of these programs running excessively. The Windows Task
Manager displays a list of all the programs running on your computer, along
with the amount of memory they consume and how active they are. To see
the Task Manager, press "Ctrl-Shift-Esc.” If a program in the Task Manager
window uses more than 20 percent of the computer’s CPU time for a
prolonged period, the program may be caught in an error state. To solve this
problem, try restarting the computer.

Windows Defender
If your PC has a malware infection, your computer’s performance
suffers. Malware may cause your Web browser to display unwanted pop-up
ads and you may experience other annoyances. The Windows operating
system includes a program called Windows Defender, which scans your
hard drives for viruses, spyware and other malicious programs. Windows
Defender reports on the problems it finds, isolates the malware and removes
it. Windows Defender uses a database of known malware, and the database
is continually updated by Microsoft so that the program catches even the
newest viruses.

Drivers
Your PC uses a variety of devices for data storage, communications,
input and display. Each of these has a program called a driver that carries
data between the hardware and Windows. Frequently, drivers have a
diagnostic capability that checks the device’s operation and troubleshoots
problems. Windows organizes these drivers in its Device Manager, which you
can see by clicking the Windows "Start" button, right-clicking “Computer,”
selecting “Properties” and clicking the “Device Manager.”

 Information Sheet 4.2-5

Repair or Replace Faulty System

Learning Objectives:
After reading this information sheet, you should be able to:
 Identify faulty system that needs to repair or replace
 Follow instructions on how to replace a faulty system

Introductions

In all cases, if you're repairing or replacing a computer part, you're

doing so on the assumption that the computer still has some value, so you
don't want to get in over your head and break things if you aren't fairly sure
of what you're doing. Repairing or replacing computer parts or is pretty
much all screwdriver work, it doesn't require great coordination, but it does
demand a certain mechanical awareness, the ability to see where things fit
and how they are supposed to go together. If you force something, you're
doing it wrong and it will break.

10 pieces of hardware you should replace rather than repair

Any time a computer component stops working, or just becomes

unstable as we all know will happen from time to time, we have to decide
whether to replace it, have it repaired, or just get by as is with perhaps a
temporary fix. Repair or just getting by will nearly always be the cheapest
solution, at least in the short run. Replacement, however, will usually
provide a good opportunity to upgrade.

1. Power supply
One of the most overlooked pieces of computer hardware is the
power supply unit (PSU). Computer enthusiasts often brag about their
blazing fast processors, top-of-the- line video cards, and gigs upon gigs of
RAM, but rarely about their great PSUs. The truth is, the power supply is
the last thing we should skimp on when choosing components for our
system.
If a computer's brain is its processor, its heart is the power supply.
And having one that is worn out, underpowered, unstable, or just
COMPUTER HARDWARE Date Developed: Document No:
SERVICING NC II Revision No:
May 4, 2015
Developed by: Issued By: Page 58 of 223
Maintain Computer Systems and
Network Bryan A. Bautista
 generally cheap can be a major cause of hardware failure. Every
computer's power requirements are different, but a good minimum for a
modern PC is 450 watts. Some systems, especially those with multiple
high-end video cards or lots of add-on cards and peripherals may require
a PSU rated at 800 watts or more. Replacing a failing or inadequate
power supply can make a previously unstable system stable.
Aside from supplying enough power, that power must be supplied
stably. A common cause of "unexplained" lockups and system crashes is
a drop in voltage supplied to the system when under load, caused by a
poorly manufactured PSU. The easiest way to find a quality PSU is to
stick to the consistently top brands such as Antec, EnerMax, and PC
Power & Cooling.

2. Fans
As computers have gotten more powerful over the last decades,
they have also gotten hotter. Gone are the days of a passively cooled
Pentium 100; now we have fans on our massive CPU heat sinks, on our
monster video cards, and on intake and outtake vents to our computer
cases.
All of these fans are playing important roles by keeping our
computers safely cooled, and we should try to ensure that they continue
doing so. Fans are one of the few parts that when replaced will not
usually be replaced with something better. But they deserve mention
because: As one of the few moving parts in our system, they are one of
the most likely to actually break.
When they break, it's likely to pass unnoticed or not cause much
concern. Also, fans are cheap and easy to replace. It generally takes an
amount, 15 minutes, and a screwdriver to install a new one, so there's
really no good excuse for not doing so.

3. Surge protector / UPS

This is another item that keeps our computers safe and should not
be neglected. A surge protector can be a stand-alone power strip, but one
is also built into virtually every uninterruptible power supply (UPS). The
surge protector guards our devices against spikes in energy that occur in
our circuits at the home or office, usually due to lightning or the
powering up of high-powered devices, such as hair dryers or
refrigerators.
Repairing a surge protector would be difficult and expensive at
best; replacement is almost always the best option. It can be tricky to

COMPUTER HARDWARE Date Developed: Document No:

SERVICING NC II Revision No:
May 4, 2015
Developed by: Issued By: Page 59 of 223
Maintain Computer Systems and
Network Bryan A. Bautista
 know when it's time to replace a surge protector, because the component
inside that diverts excess power from surges to the ground simply wears
out with repeated use. However, there is often no interruption of power or
other indication that it's done. You may still have juice but not be
protected. The cheapest protectors may wear out after fewer than 10
small surges, while the better ones can last through hundreds. The safest
thing to do is to get higher quality protectors but still replace them
occasionally.

4. Video card
The video card is one of the most important elements in the
performance of your system and overall user experience. Even though it
is also one of the priciest components, there are two good reasons to
replace it should your old one bite the dust.
First, video cards are one of the components that are being
improved upon seemingly every day. Just like with CPUs, a video card
that's two years old simply isn't as fast as a current one and won't have
the newest features (such as support for DirectX 10).
Also, the video card is the number one hardware stopgap as we
migrate to Vista. Manufacturers just aren't providing new Vista-
compatible drivers for lots of their old video cards. This means that many
of us will have to replace our video cards whether they are broken or not,
if we plan to switch to Vista.

5. Flash media reader

All kinds of devices use flash cards these days: cameras, MP3
players, even cell phones. These small devices let us take our data
anywhere easily. Since it seems as if every device uses a different format
of flash media, most of us have all-in-one type card readers. If the reader
breaks or gets lost (which seems to happen a lot), there are two excellent
reasons for upgrading to a newer model instead of trying to repair the old
one.
First, many old card readers are USB 1.1. The newer ones use USB
2.0 instead, which is 40 times faster. This is more than enough reason to
replace an old reader, even if it's not broken. In addition, new formats are
constantly coming out for flash cards, and when they do, you need a new
reader to use them. For example, Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC)
and xD from Fujifilm are not supported by older readers.

6. CD/DVD drives
Considering that it has moving, spinning parts, the average
CD/DVD drive is actually fairly robust. Because of that, however, many
people are still using old read-only (or CD RW) drives instead of
amazingly cheap (and handy) DVD writers. If you're still using an old
drive and it finally gives up the ghost, you'll probably be glad it did when
you replace it with a DVD/CD RW combo drive for less than 50 dollars.

7. Hard drives
The computer component we all least want to fail is the hard drive.
It's easier to cope with the loss of the much more expensive processor or
video card as long as we still have our precious data, so your first instinct
is to try to repair it. But if you've been practicing good backup habits,
you can actually come out of the situation better off when you replace the
old drive with something bigger and faster.

8. Monitor
With the exception of servers, a computer isn't much good without
a monitor. Monitors rarely make it all the way to the stage of completely
not working, because we replace them when they start to fade. If you
replace a monitor that's more than a few years old, the new will likely not
much resemble the old.
Any reluctance you may have had to switch from the giant 50-
pound cathode ray tube (CRT) monitor to a slim and featherweight liquid
crystal display (LCD) should be gone by now. The gap in performance in
terms of color rendering and refresh rates between CRTs and LCDs is
very small. Unless you're a graphics designer who needs a multi-
thousand dollar large screen CRT, the benefits of size, weight, power
consumption, and less eye fatigue that LCDs enjoy will far outweigh any
small performance advantages of a CRT.
With the exception of the extremely high and extremely low end
markets, it's quite hard to find a new CRT monitor anyway. If you were
already using an LCD that's a few years old, when you replace it you'll
enjoy those leaps in performance that the LCDs have made in the last few
years.

9. Keyboard
Since so many of us spend hours every day banging away at them,
it's important to have a keyboard that's comfortable and efficient. And
since we use them so much and often so brutally, it is no wonder that
they break often. Keys come off, get stuck, or just get really dirty. When
these things happen, you should usually go ahead and replace the
keyboard rather than live with the hassle.
Today's keyboards have new, handy features. Some have built in
user-defined macro keys for often-repeated commands; some can fold up
for easy transportability; some have built-in ports so they can double as
USB hubs. There is a keyboard with some unique feature to suit nearly
anyone's needs.

10. Motherboard and processor

Replacing the motherboard is always the most involved upgrade.
Since it usually means "starting over" with a clean installation of the
operating system, lots of people are reluctant to change to a newer board
even when the old one gives up the ghost, preferring instead to replace it
with the exact same model, thus avoiding having to wipe the OS.
However, since a motherboard upgrade is the most involved, it also can
give the widest range of benefits.
First and foremost, replacing the motherboard usually gives us the
chance to upgrade to the latest processor technology. Today, you can get
the benefits of a dual or even quad CPU setup with only one processor,
thanks to multi-core technology, in which more than one processing core
is placed on a single wafer. In a multitasking or multithreaded
environment, this effectively increases your computer's performance by a
factor of two or four.

Learning Objectives:
After reading this information sheet, you should be able to:
 Identify different computer components to be tested or burn-in
 Test repaired or replaced computer system to ensure safety use
 Monitor repaired or placed computer system

Introductions

Burn-in is a test in which a system or component is made to run for

an extended period of time to detect problems. Burn-in may be conducted to
ensure that a device or system functions properly before it leaves the
manufacturing plant or may be part of a repair or maintenance routine. An
end user may use a burn-in process to ensure that new equipment is
functioning properly, for example, running a new computer for several days
before committing it to serious use. If any of the components are defective
the problem will usually show up within this initial testing time frame.

Components to be tested

Test your Hardware

Checking the computer hardware and its peripherals
1. Computer monitor and its peripherals
 Monitor and interface cables
 Video card
 Monitor power cable

The term burn-in is sometimes used in reference to a phenomenon in which

faint, permanent "ghosts" appear on video displays that have displayed fixed
images for long periods of time. This problem is also known as screen burn
or phosphor burn.

Safety Measures in Maintaining Network Systems

Learning Objectives:
After reading this information sheet, you should be able to:
 Identify different safety measure to be observed when working
with network systems.
 Follow safety measures when working with network systems.

Introductions

Safe working conditions help prevent injury to people and damage to

computer equipment. A safe workspace is clean, organized, and properly
lighted. Everyone must understand and follow safety procedures. Follow the
basic safety guidelines to prevent cuts, burns, electrical shock, and damage
to eyesight. As a best practice, make sure that a fire extinguisher and first-
aid kit are available in case of fire or injury. Poorly placed or unsecured
cables can cause tripping hazards in a network installation. Cables should
be installed in conduit or cable trays to prevent hazards.

Safe Lab Procedures

Safety guidelines help protect individuals from accidents and injury.
They also help to protect equipment from damage. Some of these guidelines
are designed to protect the environment from contamination caused by
improperly discarded materials.

1. General Safety
This is a partial list of basic safety precautions to use when working
on a computer:
 Remove your watch and jewelry and secure loose clothing.
 Turn off the power and unplug equipment before performing service.
 Cover sharp edges inside the computer case with tape.
 Never open a power supply or a CRT monitors.
 Do not touch areas in printers that are hot or that use high voltage.
 Know where the fire extinguisher is located and how to use it.
 Keep food and drinks out of your workspace.
 Keep your workspace clean and free of clutter.

COMPUTER HARDWARE Date Developed: Document No:

SERVICING NC II Revision No:

Developed by: Issued By: Page 79 of 223
Maintain Computer Systems and
Network Bryan A. Bautista
  Bend your knees when lifting heavy objects to avoid injuring your
back.

2. Electrical Safety
Follow electrical safety guidelines to prevent electrical fires, injuries,
and fatalities in the home and the workplace. Power supplies and CRT
monitors contain high voltage. Some printer parts become hot during use,
and other parts might contain high voltage. Check the printer manual for
the location of high-voltage components. Some components retain a high
voltage even after the printer is turned off. Make sure that the printer has
had time to cool before making the repair.
Electrical devices have certain power requirements. For example, AC
adapters are manufactured for specific laptops. Exchanging power cords
with a different type of laptop or device may cause damage to both the AC
adapter and the laptop.

3. Fire Safety
Follow fire safety guidelines to protect lives, structures, and
equipment. To avoid an electrical shock and to prevent damage to the
computer, turn off and unplug the computer before beginning a repair.
Fire can spread rapidly and be very costly. Proper use of a fire extinguisher
can prevent a small fire from getting out of control. When working with
computer components, be aware of the possibility of an accidental fire and
know how to react. Be alert for odors emitting from computers and
electronic devices. When electronic components overheat or short out, they
emit a burning odor. If there is a fire, follow these safety procedures:
 Never fight a fire that is out of control or not contained.
 Always have a planned fire escape route before beginning any work.
 Get out of the building quickly.
 Contact emergency services for help.
 Locate and read the instructions on the fire extinguishers in your
workplace before you have to use them.

Be familiar with the types of fire extinguishers used in your country or

region. Each type of fire extinguisher has specific chemicals to fight different
types of fires:
 Paper, wood, plastics, cardboard
 Gasoline, kerosene, organic solvents
 Electrical equipment
 Combustible metals

Maintain Computer Systems and
Network Bryan A. Bautista
 It is important to know how to use a fire extinguisher. Use the
memory aid P-A-S-S to remember the basic rules of fire extinguisher
operation:
 P: Pull the pin.
 A: Aim at the base of the fire, not at the flames.
 S: Squeeze the lever.
 S: Sweep the nozzle from side to side.

Procedures to Protect Equipment and Data

Replacing equipment and recovering data is expensive and time
consuming. This section identifies potential threats to systems and
describes procedures to help prevent loss and damage.

1. ESD and EMI

Electrostatic discharge (ESD), harsh climates, and poor-quality
sources of electricity can cause damage to computer equipment. Follow
proper handling guidelines, be aware of environmental issues, and use
equipment that stabilizes power to prevent equipment damage and data
loss. Static electricity is the buildup of an electric charge resting on a
surface. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) occurs when this buildup jumps to a
component and causes damage. ESD can be destructive to the electronics in
a computer system.
ESD can cause permanent damage to electrical components. Follow these
recommendations to help prevent ESD damage:
 Keep all components in antistatic bags until you are ready to install
them.
 Use grounded mats on workbenches.
 Use grounded floor mats in work areas.
 Use antistatic wrist straps when working on computers.

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) is the intrusion of outside

electromagnetic signals in a transmission media, such as copper cabling. In
a network environment, EMI distorts the signals so that the receiving
devices have difficulty interpreting them. EMI does not always come from
expected sources, such as cellular phones. Other types of electric equipment
can emit a silent, invisible electromagnetic field that can extend for more
than a mile (1.6 km).
There are many sources of EMI:
 Any source designed to generate electromagnetic energy

COMPUTER HARDWARE Date Developed: Document No:

SERVICING NC II Revision No:

Maintain Computer Systems and
Network Bryan A. Bautista
  Man-made sources like power lines or motors
 Natural events such as electrical storms, or solar and interstellar
radiations

2. Power Fluctuation Types

Voltage is the force that moves electrons through a circuit. The
movement of electrons is called current. Computer circuits need voltage and
current to operate electronic components. When the voltage in a computer is
not accurate or steady, computer components might not operate correctly.
Unsteady voltages are called power fluctuations.
The following types of AC power fluctuations can cause data loss or
hardware failure:
 Blackout: Complete loss of AC power. A blown fuse, damaged
transformer, or downed power line can cause a blackout.
 Brownout: Reduced voltage level of AC power that lasts for a period of
time. Brownouts occur when the power line voltage drops below 80
percent of the normal voltage level. Overloading electrical circuits can
cause a brownout.
 Noise: Interference from generators and lightning. Noise results in
poor quality power, which can cause errors in a computer system.
 Spike: Sudden increase in voltage that lasts for a short period and
exceeds 100 percent of the normal voltage on a line. Spikes can be
caused by lightning strikes, but can also occur when the electrical
system comes back on after a blackout.
 Power surge: Dramatic increase in voltage above the normal flow of
electrical current. A power surge lasts for a few nanoseconds, or one-
billionth of a second.

3. Power Protection Devices

To help shield against power fluctuation problems, use power
protection devices to protect the data and computer equipment:
 Surge suppressor: Helps protect against damage from surges and
spikes. A surge suppressor diverts extra electrical voltage that is on
the line to the ground.
 Uninterruptible power supply (UPS): Helps protect against potential
electrical power problems by supplying a consistent level of electrical
power to a computer or other device. The battery is constantly
recharging while the UPS is in use. The UPS provides a consistent
quality of power when brownouts and blackouts occur. Many UPS
devices can communicate directly with the computer operating

COMPUTER HARDWARE Date Developed: Document No:

SERVICING NC II Revision No:
May 4, 2015
Developed by: Issued By: Page 82 of 223
Maintain Computer Systems and
Network Bryan A. Bautista
 system. This communication allows the UPS to safely shut down the
computer and save data prior to the UPS losing all electrical power.
 Standby power supply (SPS): Helps protect against potential electrical
power problems by providing a backup battery to supply power when
the incoming voltage drops below the normal level. The battery is on
standby during normal operation. When the voltage decreases, the
battery provides DC power to a power inverter, which converts it to AC
power for the computer. This device is not as reliable as a UPS
because of the time it takes to switch over to the battery. If the
switching device fails, the battery cannot supply power to the
computer.

Proper Use of Tools

Using tools properly helps prevent accidents and damage to
equipment and people. This section describes and covers the proper use of a
variety of hardware, software, and organizational tools specific to working
with computers and peripherals.

1. Hardware Tools
For every job there is the right tool. Make sure that you are familiar
with the correct use of each tool and that the correct tool is used for the
current task. Skilled use of tools and software makes the job less difficult
and ensures that tasks are performed properly and safely. A toolkit should
contain all the tools necessary to complete hardware repairs. As you gain
experience, you learn which tools to have available for different types of jobs.
Hardware tools are grouped into four categories:
 ESD tools
 Hand tools
 Cleaning tools
 Diagnostic tools
ESD Tools - There are two ESD tools: the antistatic wrist strap and the
antistatic mat. The antistatic wrist strap protects computer equipment when
grounded to a computer chassis. The antistatic mat protects computer
equipment by preventing static electricity from accumulating on the
hardware or on the technician.
Hand Tools - Most tools used in the computer assembly process are small
hand tools. They are available individually or as part of a computer repair
toolkit. Toolkits range widely in size, quality, and price. Some common hand
tools and their uses are:
 Flat-head screwdriver: Used to tighten or loosen slotted screws.
 Phillips-head screwdriver: Used to tighten or loosen cross-headed
screws.

Maintain Computer Systems and
Network Bryan A. Bautista
  Torx screwdriver: Used to tighten or loosen screws that have a star-
like depression on the top, a feature that is mainly found on laptops.
 Hex driver: Used to tighten or loosen nuts in the same way that a
screwdriver tightens or loosens screws (sometimes called a nut driver).
 Needle-nose pliers: Used to hold small parts.
 Wire cutters: Used to strip and cut wires.
 Tweezers: Used to manipulate small parts.
 Part retriever: Used to retrieve parts from locations that are too small
for your hand to fit.
 Flashlight: Used to light up areas that you cannot see well.
 Wire stripper: A wire stripper is used to remove the insulation from
wire so that it can be twisted to other wires or crimped to connectors
to make a cable.
 Crimper: Used to attach connectors to wires.
 Punch-down tool: Used to terminate wire into termination blocks.
Some cable connectors must be connected to cables using a punch
down tool.
Cleaning Tools - Having the appropriate cleaning tools is essential when
maintaining and repairing computers. Using the appropriate cleaning tools
helps ensure that computer components are not damaged during cleaning.
Cleaning tools include the following:
Soft cloth: Used to clean different computer components without scratching
or leaving debris
 Compressed air: Used to blow away dust and debris from different
computer parts without touching the components
 Cable ties: Used to bundle cables neatly inside and outside of a
computer
 Parts organizer: Used to hold screws, jumpers, fasteners, and other
small parts and prevents them from getting mixed together
Diagnostic Tools - Diagnostic tools are used to test and diagnose
equipment. Diagnostic tools include the following:
 A digital multimeter is a device that can take many types of
measurements. It tests the integrity of circuits and the quality of
electricity in computer components. A digital multimeter displays the
information on an LCD or LED.
 A loopback adapter, also called a loopback plug, tests the basic
functionality of computer ports. The adapter is specific to the port that
you want to test.
 The toner probe is a two-part tool. The toner part is connected to a
cable at one end using specific adapters, such as an RJ-45, coaxial, or
metal clips. The toner generates a tone that travels the length of the
cable. The probe part traces the cable. When the probe is in near
proximity to the cable to which the toner is attached, the tone can be
heard through a speaker in the probe.

Diagnose and Identify Faulty Systems and Cables

Learning Objectives:
After reading this information sheet, you should be able to:
 Identify faulty systems and cables on a network system
 Diagnose faulty systems and cables on a network system

Introductions

A bad Ethernet cable shows many of the same symptoms that other
network hardware failures demonstrate; however, the cable is often to blame
when the problem is isolated to a single computer or device. When an
Ethernet cable isn't working correctly, the rest of the network will still
function correctly. Any type of service disruption or slow performance can
trace back to a faulty

Identifying System Problems

To identify system problems, follow these steps:
1. Check the power LED.
2. Check the system fault LED (see System fault LED). If the status is
yellow, check for alarms using the show alarms command.
3. Power down the appliance and all external devices.
4. Check all cables and power cords. (See the “Checking Connections
and Switches” section.)
5. Power up the appliance.
6. If the self-diagnostic programs were completed successfully and you
still suspect a problem, see the “Undetermined Problems” section.
7. Check the system error log to see if an error was recorded by the
system.

Checking Connections and Switches

Improperly set switches and controls and loose or improperly
connected cables are the most likely source of problems for the chassis or
other external equipment. A quick check of all the switches, controls, and
cable connections can easily solve these problems

COMPUTER HARDWARE Date Developed: Document No:

SERVICING NC II Revision No:
May 4, 2015
Developed by: Issued By: Page 88 of 223
Maintain Computer Systems and
Network Bryan A. Bautista
To check all the connections and switches, follow these steps:
1. Power down the system. Disconnect all the power cables from their
electrical outlets.
2. If the system is connected to a power strip (or power distribution unit),
turn the power strip off and then on again.
If the power strip is receiving power go to Step 5.
If the power strip is not receiving power go to Step 3.
3. Plug the power strip into another electrical outlet.
If the power strip is receiving power, the original electrical outlet
probably does not function. Use a different electrical outlet.
If the power strip is not receiving power go to Step 4.
4. Plug a system that you know works into the electrical outlet.
If the system receives power, the power strip is probably not
functioning properly. Use another power strip.
If the system does not receive power, go to Step 5.
5. Reconnect the system to the electrical outlet or power strip.
Make sure that all connections fit tightly together.
6. Power up the system.
If the problem is resolved, the connections were loose. You have fixed
the problem.
If the problem is not resolved, call your customer service
representative.

Network Connection Problems

If the Ethernet controller cannot connect to the network, check the
following conditions:
1. Make sure that the cable is installed correctly.
The network cable must be securely attached at all connections. If the
cable is attached but the problem remains, try a different cable.
If you set the Ethernet controller to operate at either 100 Mbps or
1000 Mbps, you must use Category 5 or higher cabling.
2. Determine whether the switch or device to which the WAVE appliance
is connected supports auto negotiation. If it does not, try configuring
the integrated Ethernet controller manually to match the speed and
duplex mode of the switch.
3. Check the Ethernet controller LEDs on the appliance front panel.
These LEDs indicate whether a problem exists with the connector, cable, or
switch:
The Ethernet link status LED is on when the Ethernet controller
receives a link pulse from the switch. If the LED is off, there might be
a defective connector or cable or a problem with the switch.
The Ethernet activity LED is on when the Ethernet controller sends or
receives data over the Ethernet network. If the Ethernet activity LED

Run Diagnostics Software

Learning Objectives:
After reading this information sheet, you should be able to:
 Run diagnostics software in order to maintain a computer
network
 Follow steps or procedures in running diagnostics software

Introductions

When things are going wrong on your Windows system it is sometimes

hard to figure out where to even begin to look for an answer. One good place
is to simply check the Windows Event Viewer and see if there are any entries
in the event logs that can shed any light on your problem. But, another way
to assess the overall health of your system and find clues to help you solve
problems is by using the Network Diagnostics tool built into Windows XP.

Network Diagnostics tool

With the Network Diagnostics tool, you can perform a scan of your
system and test network connectivity and whether or not your network-
related programs and services are functional. It gathers a variety of basic
information about the computer system which can be helpful when given to
a support person trying to help you troubleshoot your system.
Getting to the tool in the first place is a tad less than intuitive (to put
it mildly). You need a support person to walk you through the myriad of
options just to find it.
To get to the Network Diagnostics tool in Windows XP, follow these steps:
1. Click Start
2. Click Help and Support
3. Click on the Fixing A Problem link
4. Click on Networking Problems
5. Click on Diagnose network configuration and run automated

Repair or Replace Faulty Systems and Cables

Learning Objectives:
After reading this information sheet, you should be able to:
 Identify different methods in maintaining computer systems.
 Follow procedures in maintaining computer systems.

Introductions

Network cables are the arteries and veins of the Internet. A cabled
network is the most reliable of the available options for setting up network
infrastructure as it provides the highest speeds, is less prone to failure and
has fewer points of failure to check during troubleshooting. Being less prone
to failure, though, does not make it foolproof. Cables get twisted, caught in
doors, have clips broken and become unreliable as they’re pulled and tied in
knots during transport.

Cable Type: The Choice is Yours

Whether you choose to use Cat5e or Cat6 cable is entirely up to you
and your budget. If you can get Cat6 for a reasonable price then there is no
reason not to as it is the superior option. That said, unless you’re making
cables that will be installed into your home on a permanent basis there is
little need to bother with Cat6 at this point in time. The advantages that it
provides won’t be utilized by consumer grade networking gear any time
soon, until home networks achieve speeds greater than 1 Gbit/s. This guide
below will focus on Cat5e.

An Anatomy Lesson
To the naked eye, the anatomy of the different cables does not
significantly differ between categories, though each can be identified by the
text printed along the length of the cable. The major differences are found in
the shielding and how tightly the wire pairs are twisted. A Cat6 cable is
better able to avoid crosstalk and provide faster speeds than the Cat5
variants thanks to it’s heavier wire shielding and tighter pair twists. This
makes our job easier, as it means that the guide below will be applicable no
matter your chosen cable standard.

 A Cat5e cable is made up of four twisted pairs of wires, each
independently color shielded. These wires terminate at 8P8C jack plugs, or
RJ45s as they’re more commonly known. As it turns out, “RJ45” refers to
the 8P8C male plug and female socket in conjunction with the common
telephony wiring standard. The vast majority of network cables that we
encounter use 8P8C jacks and sockets, and the T568A or T568B wiring
standard. That said, “RJ45” is used colloquially often enough that
perpetuating the misconception in conversation is unlikely to result in
ridicule.

The 8P8C modular connector is a molded plastic jack plug with eight
raised, gold-colored pins at one end, and a crimp tooth at the other. The
plug is a solder-less design, meaning that each individual wiring job is
relatively quick and easy, but will require the acquisition of a specialized
tool. A crimping tool is used both to firmly attach the plug to the cable, and

SERVICING NC II Revision No:
May 4, 2015
Developed by: Issued By: Page 102 of 223
Maintain Computer Systems and
Network Bryan A. Bautista
to make contact between the pins on the plug and the wires inside their
colored shielding. Two types of 8P8C connector exist to suit both stranded,
and the less common solid Ethernet cable. Both will work with any available
crimping tool, but be sure to purchase the correct connector for your cable
type to guarantee a reliable electrical connection.

Wiring Standards

Whether you choose to use the T568A or B wiring standard is up to

you. T568B is more commonly used in the US, while Canada and Australia
favor T568A. Both standards require a single cable to be at most 100 meters
in length. The only major difference between the two that concerns us is the
reversed position of the green and orange wires. For the purposes of non-
installation home networking, the choice is largely irrelevant as long as you
make sure to use the same standard at each end of a single cable. Note that
if you choose to have cables installed in the walls of your home, government
regulations on standards choice may apply.

The Tools You’ll Need

A length of Cat5e cable, a crimping tool with cable stripper/cutter,
8P8C jacks (more than two - mistakes happen), plug boots, cable tester. All
of these tools should be available at your local electronics parts and spare
store.

The Repair Process

Choose and cut your desired length of cable. Remember to allow a

little extra for mistakes.
If you have them, add the plug boots to your cable now. Once an 8P8C jack
has been crimped to a cable it cannot be temporarily removed, only cut off
and replaced.

Strip the outer shielding from the cable, roughly 1.5 centimeters. Most
crimping tools have guides which will help to expose the correct length of

wire. Check the eight exposed wires to ensure that you didn’t inadvertently
expose the copper within. If this occurs, simply cut and strip again.

Some network cables have a length of fibers running through them to

help to strengthen the cable and bulk out the core. Cut these away with a
pair of scissors or a sharp knife.
Reorder the wires according to the desired wiring scheme. This can be
a fiddly and troublesome task thanks to the fact that the eight wires are
divided into four twisted pairs. Do what you can to end up with a flat group
of wires without any tangling.

Because you have untwisted the pairs, you’ll notice that the wires are
no longer even lengths. Trim to remedy this situation, as it is imperative that
each wire is of an even length to ensure a solid connection.

 Straighten all of the lengths of wire and line them up in the correct
order. Hold them tightly between your finger and thumb ready for insertion
into the plug.

Each wire should easily slide into their designated slots in the plug.
Double check if you have maintained the correct order during this process.
Each of the wires should reach the far wall of the plug in order to be pierced
by each of the teeth on the pins.

Triple check your wiring order and that there is a good amount of blue
shielding underneath the crimping crimp. It is worth making these checks

because once a plug has been crimped onto cable, it can’t be removed and
reused.
Insert the plug into the correct slot on the crimping tool. Ensure that
you have inserted it into the correct side of the tool - the teeth on the tool
should correspond with the pins on the plug.

When you’re sure that everything is in the right place, go ahead and
crimp. Press the plug firmly into the socket on the crimping tool and
squeeze the handles together. Two or three squeezes should ensure a firm
crimp. You’ll notice that the raised pins have been pushed down so that
their teeth pierce the wire shielding and make contact with the copper
within.

 Slide the plug boots up so that they cover the clips and you’re
finished! All that is left to do is confirm that your cable works by using a
cable tester, or by simply attempting normal use of the cable.

Now that you have the knowledge and tools necessary for performing
network cable repairs, it might be time to have a look over the cables that
you currently have in use around your network. Replace any jacks with
broken locking clips, frayed shielding or cracks in their housing. Eliminating
doubt about the state of your physical network infrastructure will leave you
free to troubleshoot problems from the comfort of your office chair, rather
than crawling around on hands and knees confirming that all of your cables
are in place.

Burn-In or Test Repaired or Replaced Network System

Learning Objectives:
After reading this information sheet, you should be able to:
 Identify methods of testing repaired or replaced network system
components.
 Follow procedures in testing replaced network cables.

Introductions

The easiest and most informative method to test the continuity of an

Ethernet cable involves purchasing an affordable device called a continuity
tester. A basic model will test the continuity of Ethernet and coaxial cable. A
continuity tester is not absolutely necessary, but highly useful if you need to
test Ethernet cables frequently. There is some important terminology you
should understand before proceeding. Jacks are where the ends of the cable
plug into a computer or other networking device. Plugs are the small plastic
connectors on the end of the cable. Pairs refer to color-coded strands of
wires that are matched together, and cable housing is the plastic insulation
that covers and protects these wires.

How to Test Cat-5 Cables

Cat-5 Ethernet cables are probably the most widely used piece of
Internet networking equipment today. Because of their popularity, Ethernet
cables have become less expensive. The trade-off is that to make them more
affordable, they are built more cheaply. Given this, it is important for the
home Internet user to have a simple procedure to test cat-5 Ethernet cables,
as you will more likely than not run into at least one bad cable at some
point.

Network Bryan A. Bautista
Things You'll Need
 Ethernet cable
 Computer
 Internet connection

Instructions

1. Inspect the cat-5 Ethernet cable for damage. Look at the

connectors on either end of the cat-5 cable and make sure the plastic
pieces, including the protruding connector tab, are not damaged or
broken. Make sure the colored wires inside the connector are all in
place and not exposed to the outside of the cable. Check the plastic
shielding on the outside of the cable for any tears or damage.
2. Connect the cat-5 cable from an Internet device to a computer.
Attach one end of the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on an
Internet modem or router and the other end to an Ethernet port on a
computer. Look at the Ethernet port on the computer. There is a green
or yellow light on the port itself that will indicate if the computer
detects the Ethernet connection. Check the modem or router. There is
usually a light labeled "enet," "PC" or "Link" that, when lit, indicates
that the device is detecting the physical connection to the computer
over the Ethernet cable. If both lights indicate a good connection, the
final test is to see if any network traffic can be transmitted over the
cable.
3. Browse the Internet. Even if all the steps above indicate the cat-5
cable is working, you still may have a bad cable. The only way to tell
for sure is to open an Internet browser to see if you can visit any web
pages. If you want to tell for sure if your cable is bad, you can try
browsing the Internet with a different cat-5 cable and see if the issue
persists.

Testing Using a Continuity Tester

1. Power on the continuity tester.
2. Insert one of the cable plugs into the tester and the other into the
terminator.
3. Look at the display of the network tester. Depending on your
continuity tester, at a minimum it will indicate if there is a break in
the cable and, should it include this feature, which cable pairs the
break affects.
Testing Continuity without a Continuity Tester
1. Power the computer and a router or other networking device on.

2. Plug the cable into the network port on the computer and the other
end into the networking device.
3. Look at the back of the computer where the cable is plugged into the
Ethernet jack and see if any flashing green or yellow lights come on.
These lights indicate if the computer is sending or receiving any
information. If the lights are lit or flashing, the cable continuity is
good. If not, replace the cable.

 Characteristics of learners

Learning styles a. Visual - The visual learner takes mental

pictures of information given, so in order for
this kind of learner to retain information,
oral or written, presentations of new
information must contain diagrams and
drawings, preferably in color. The visual
learner can't concentrate with a lot of activity
around him and will focus better and learn
faster in a quiet study environment.
b. Kinesthetic - described as the students in
the classroom, who have problems sitting
still and who often bounce their legs while
tapping their fingers on the desks. They are
often referred to as hyperactive students
with concentration issues.
c. Auditory- a learner who has the ability to
remember speeches and lectures in detail
but has a hard time with written text. Having
to read long texts is pointless and will not be
retained by the auditory learner unless it is
read aloud.
d. Activist - Learns by having a go
e. Reflector - Learns most from activities where
they can watch, listen and then review what
has happened.
f. Theorist - Learns most when ideas are linked
to existing theories and concepts.
g. Pragmatist - Learns most from learning
activities that are directly relevant to their
situation.
a. Financially challenged
Other needs
b. Working student
c. Solo parent
d. Others(please specify)

 ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

This Competency Based Learning Material on ‘Maintaining Computer

Systems and Networks” would not have been possible without the guidance
and help of several individuals who in one way or another contributed and
extended their valuable assistance in the preparation and completion of this
CBLM.

First and foremost, my utmost gratitude to Sr. Vilma A. Pitogo, USS,

School Principal of Liceo de Christh the King, Inc. whose sincerity and
encouragement I will never forget.

Professor Jayson D. Cabatuando, for his unselfish and unfailing

support as my trainer and the insights he has shared.

Also this CBLM would not have been possible without the cooperation
of the ICT group where I belong.
Last but not the least, my family and the one above all of us, the
Almighty God, for answering my prayers, for giving me strength to plod on
despite my constitution wanting to give up and throw in the towel, thank
you so much Dear Lord.

Bryan A. Bautista
