this is a standard PC

00:10
no markings you can buy this at any
00:12
store any if you
00:16
to get into the computer and look at the
00:18
back make sure that all your connectors
00:21
when you lay the computer down all the
00:23
connectors are on the bottom these are
00:26
thumb screws you unscrew them up to the
00:31
side and you slide back and then lift up
00:35
just takes the case off now this is the
00:42
inside of a computer you have a power
00:47
supply these connectors come off a power
00:50
supply supply power to everything on the
00:52
system board and on the components this
00:55
is a processor fan heatsink which is
00:59
over the microprocessor there's several
01:01
components that are on here that we'll
01:02
talk about later you have your hard
01:04
drive you have your cd-rom and this is
01:08
this component down here is called your
01:10
mother boy we're going to take this
01:13
apart the blue cables that you see here
01:18
are called SATA cables that's ata SATA
01:21
cables there's a pin on the top of one
01:24
of these you squeeze and pull see this
01:28
pin here what you do is you squeeze that
01:31
pin down and you pull out and it comes
01:35
off of the hard drive and I'm going to
01:38
take the power which has the same type
01:40
of connector only uses a little bit
01:42
longer we do the same thing up top
01:44
squeeze and pull same thing with the
01:48
power squeezing pull the power is
01:52
supplied through the power supply the
01:54
SATA cable is supplied through the
01:56
system boy there's these cables here
01:59
your SATA cables are connected to SATA
02:02
ports that are on the system board again
02:05
squeeze and you pull set these off to
02:13
the side as well we're going to start
02:17
connecting power to everything this
02:20
power cord right here connects to a case
02:22
fan they simply just unplug this power
02:28
connector connects all the power to the
02:31
system board squeeze and pull directly
02:36
out it's got this little clip it clips
02:39
on to the side of the system board again
02:42
another case fan unplug power and you
02:46
have a four prong power connector down
02:51
here
02:52
it supplies more power to the board it
02:56
also has a little squeeze pin and it
02:59
pulls right out now your power supply is
03:02
completely disconnected from your system
03:05
boy now we're going to remove the power
03:09
supply okay to remove the power supply
03:14
there are four screws on the backside
03:18
get a Philips screwdriver
03:24
make sure you don't lose your screws
03:40
once you finish taking out all four
03:42
screws power supply so just follow the
03:45
slide forward tilt back towards the
03:47
board lift straight on it that is the
03:51
removal of a power supply now let's
03:54
remove the hard drive normally there are
03:59
two screws holding power supply in on
04:01
either side top and bottom let's remove
04:05
the hard drive screws and remove the
04:09
hard drive slides forward and your hard
04:20
drive has been removed if you have
04:24
screws on the on the other side on the
04:26
opposite side stand the preheater back
04:29
up
04:30
remove the screws on the on what we call
04:33
the bottom side remove your thumb screws
04:36
slide the tray open up that portion of
04:41
your computer these two screws will
04:45
release the cd-rom drive
04:56
put it back around two screws on this
05:01
side once you've removed the screws from
05:07
the cd-rom push from the back count
05:09
forward and your senior on the slide
05:12
forward now to remove the system board
05:16
you can first have to remove each one of
05:19
the components that are tied to it
05:21
cables PCI connectors or p8 PCI Express
05:26
whatever external cards or what they
05:28
call add-on cards you have to remove
05:31
those this is considered memory doesn't
05:34
necessarily have to be removed when
05:35
you're moving removing the motherboard
05:37
but you can to remove the memory there's
05:40
a tab on either side you pull the tab
05:42
out pull this tab on the other side out
05:45
and the memory slides right out there's
05:50
your memory stick now we're going to
05:52
remove this PCI card to do that you'll
05:57
see the screws inside here it's hard to
06:00
get to there's a cover on the backside
06:03
and we have to remove it first this is
06:07
not normal on on all computer all
06:09
computers some of the the big box
06:12
computers do not have these most custom
06:14
cut cases will remove your case it
06:19
exposes all your screws you find which
06:22
one has the silver tab that usually
06:24
indicates a an add-on card unscrew it
06:29
back into the case grab both corners and
06:34
pull straight out this will take your
06:37
card your PCI card off of the system
06:40
board
06:43
now most of the cables that you see here
06:46
come from the front panel the front
06:50
panel has a card reader it's got USB
06:53
ports audio headphone jack it's got a
06:58
power button a power LED or power light
07:01
and it's got indicators for your hard
07:03
drive and other lights on the front so
07:08
what we want to do is disconnect those
07:09
cables from your system board real
07:13
simply don't you know don't pull too
07:15
hard just grab firmly and ease them out
07:18
just pull lightly and they'll all unplug
07:20
and notice how they fan apart this is
07:25
your USB cables do the same thing grab
07:30
lightly and pull these do not fan apart
07:33
and it has the word USB nor has the the
07:36
letters usb on them this will tell you
07:39
these are for the USB ports and the card
07:41
reader for it front then this cable
07:44
again pull from here it tells you that
07:48
it's an audio port came from here and it
07:53
will tell you on the system board where
07:55
it says audio now let's remove
07:59
motherboard to remove the system board
08:04
there's there screws that hold it on
08:07
these screws are indicated by little
08:11
circles throughout the system board and
08:15
that holds it in place so it won't it
08:18
can't move and once we remove the screws
08:20
the system board should slide towards
08:23
the front of the case and pull straight
08:25
out I'm using the lightly magnetic tip
08:29
screwdriver to kind of help some people
08:32
don't don't necessarily think that
08:34
should be used and if that's the case
08:36
you don't feel comfortable with that
08:38
then and don't use them I'm sure
08:40
whenever you're putting these screws
08:41
back in and you don't you don't over
08:43
tighten them they just need to be
08:45
tightened up enough to where it holds
08:48
steady motherboard should lift straight
08:51
up
08:53
the other you have your system bored out
08:55
you can replace your processor this is
08:57
the easiest thing way to do it I like to
08:59
put the processor and the heatsink on
09:01
before I set you set my motherboard back
09:04
in my box or or replace it the reason
09:07
being is allow me one to handle the
09:10
device a little easier and - I'm not
09:14
confined in space so what I want to do
09:16
is on every heatsink you're going to
09:20
find a fan that fan usually has a power
09:22
cord and it's usually plugged in to a
09:25
power connector and it'll tell you on
09:28
the set on the system board where a CPU
09:30
fan should be plugged into this is on an
09:34
anti-static bag so that you don't you
09:38
know any static electricity to the
09:40
system board unplug your power again
09:43
just it you don't have to yank on them
09:46
just slightly pull them out there's a
09:49
screw inside of each one of these that
09:52
you can remove the fan some people
09:54
remove the fan or you can just remove it
09:57
by this take that lever and you lift it
10:00
up get you a flathead screwdriver push
10:05
down and it releases it on this side
10:11
once it releases from this side you can
10:16
release it from that side and your whole
10:20
processor should live right off of there
10:25
now this the processor is mounted it's
10:30
not mounted but it's stuck to the
10:32
heatsink because of the heatsink paste
10:35
take your screwdriver and lightly turn
10:37
it and that should break it loose and
10:41
that is your processor this is the on
10:43
that it comes off uh locks it into place
10:46
on each processor you have a row of pins
10:49
to have a pattern inside you'll notice
10:51
that there's four holes missing there's
10:54
also four holes on the system board
10:57
itself on the processor socket when you
10:59
match up your triangles you set it back
11:02
down into place that pattern will match
11:04
up you don't want to force it it should
11:07
drop right into place if you match up
11:09
your triangles you lock it back down and
11:13
you're finished so let's talk about the
11:16
components on the system board
11:18
this is your power main power from your
11:21
power supply this is a IDE connector for
11:25
the older IDE
11:26
hard drives or CD ROMs this is a floppy
11:30
drive connector just in case you have a
11:32
floppy drive which they don't really
11:33
make hardly any more
11:34
these are SATA connectors SATA stands
11:37
for serial ata if you notice inside they
11:41
they're very distinctive your SATA 0 is
11:45
your highest port that's your main port
11:47
where yours for your hard drive it plug
11:49
to and then you have your SATA 1 2 3 on
11:52
the other side for any others you have
11:55
PCI slots you have a video port the only
12:00
thing that fits in this port would be a
12:01
video card PCI Express video card you
12:05
also have a PCI Express 2 which is
12:08
another video card these pin outs up
12:11
here is where you would plug your front
12:14
panel for your power switch and your
12:17
your front speaker the LED lights this
12:21
is your USB ports you'll notice what it
12:23
says up here these are both your USB
12:25
connectors for the front this is a
12:27
communications port in case you have a
12:30
Communications card in the front you
12:33
also have on the back you have audio
12:36
ports which is your speaker microphone
12:39
you headphone jacks you have an Ethernet
12:42
connector for your network you have two
12:45
USB ports here for more on this side you
12:50
have a DVI port you have a VGA port both
12:54
of these are video you have if you
12:57
notice this one's green and purple this
12:58
is a ps2 port you can plug either a
13:01
mouse or a keyboard and then you have
13:03
two more USB ports on the front side
13:06
your memory socket sockets you have two
13:09
DDR memory slots right here this
13:12
processor is an AMD processor you can
13:16
tell because it says a m3 or a m2 plus
13:19
this is your processor socket these are
13:21
the mounts of your heatsink this is your
13:23
gigabyte motherboard this is a chipset
13:27
heatsink it keeps your chipset cold or
13:31
cool then you have variety of capacitors
13:35
and in resistors and different little
13:37
chips on the board that will help you
13:38
this is called a CMOS battery you have
13:41
your audio port that's basically the
13:47
basic components of a system board and
13:48
in all system boards are different some
13:51
of them won't have a floppy from ports
13:55
and some of them will not have an IDE
13:57
port anymore everything's going to SATA
14:00
drives you may not have a PC I mean a
14:03
PCI Express connector anymore you may
14:05
just have the PCI 2 you may not even
14:08
have any PCI connectors this is your 4
14:11
port power connector which would
14:14
supplies power to the processor and all
14:16
the ports in the back here this power
14:18
connector supplies ports to Howard
14:20
everything else and that's basically the
14:24
components you have you have fans to
14:26
plug in here on either side this is
14:28
right here for spit if is is a surround
14:32
sound
14:32
IO right here another audio port and
14:35
that should is your basic component
14:39
now that we have everything apart we're
14:41
going to put everything back together we
14:43
have our processor back in and it's
14:45
locked down the good thing to remember
14:48
is the pace that you see on here any
14:51
time you're putting it putting a
14:52
processor back on you want to add some
14:55
type of thermal paste back on between
14:58
the processor and the and the heatsink
15:00
itself they kind of keep that that
15:02
section cool so what we're going to do
15:05
is we're going to turn this all the way
15:06
back around just like we had it and
15:08
we're going to set it back in place
15:11
we're going to turn it we're going to
15:13
make sure that it's locked down on this
15:16
side here so when we turn it back the
15:20
other side this portion we have pushed
15:24
down on just a little bit before it
15:27
locks into place now we've got this
15:29
pushed down on both sides we're going to
15:32
lock the lever in place and that keeps
15:38
this from moving now we take our power
15:41
connector for port power connector it's
15:44
got the little slides so tells you which
15:47
way it's supposed to go and it slides
15:49
all the way down to the bottom to you
15:50
here connect now that we have this in
15:53
place we can add our memory back as well
15:58
the memory can go in on the outside just
16:00
as just as easy as it can on the inside
16:02
so we want to line up the grooves with
16:06
the grooves that are in the in the
16:07
system boards themselves you want to
16:10
make sure that the grooves match up
16:13
before you insert it we want to make
16:16
sure our tabs are open on both sides
16:20
there's a rail that it goes into here
16:24
and here and then you want to push down
16:28
on both sides firmly until you hear it
16:31
click if you have to you can put it on
16:33
either one of them you have an
16:34
additional memory you can add that to it
16:36
as well this just has a single stick of
16:38
memory in it and we'll get into that
16:40
further in another video what type of
16:43
memory and what type of slot so now
16:46
we're ready to put this back into the
16:48
system board and right back into the end
16:51
of the computer
16:52
so we take our case like we had before
16:55
it's empty and we want to add the system
16:58
board back in so we're going to lay it
17:00
back down we're going to put the
17:02
motherboard the motherboard back in
17:04
notice on the back cups your holes
17:09
aligned where each one of the components
17:11
go and it tells you where the keyboard
17:14
or mouse and it tells you all the other
17:16
things and we want to line the back of
17:18
these with the ports that are on the
17:22
back of this now any time you buy a
17:24
system board this plate pops in and pops
17:27
out so it doesn't matter if you have a
17:29
generic case and a generic motherboard
17:31
you can pop this portion of the case out
17:33
and put the one that comes with your new
17:35
board in so it matches up so let's set
17:39
our case back down we want to take your
17:43
system board make sure that your
17:45
components are facing the back you want
17:47
to go in in an angle moving all your
17:50
cables out of the way you want to make
17:53
sure that it matches up with all your
17:56
components in the back make sure that
18:01
nothing is poked out make sure that
18:02
you're all in the right place and you
18:06
want to make sure that you can see your
18:08
screw holes and that they're matched up
18:11
as well again when you're putting your
18:14
screws back in you don't have to to bear
18:18
down on them just make sure that they're
18:20
snug make sure that the system board
18:24
will not move it doesn't jump because as
18:29
you plug components into it you don't
18:32
want it to shift the ones back here by
18:36
the by the back of the system board
18:38
are the ones that are a little more
18:39
tough to get to because of the lip on
18:42
here just you can use a shorter screw
18:44
driver or an actual longer screw driver
18:47
just to get the get your your
18:49
screwdriver away from the edge there
18:52
the main concern with the screws is you
18:55
want to make sure that all four corners
18:58
are tied down or anchored you can short
19:02
a system board out with that with the
19:03
wrong screw or with not having a screw
19:06
added could get add a short to the
19:09
system board which will cause your
19:12
system board not to power up so make
19:15
sure that you don't have anything except
19:16
for the brass inserts underneath where
19:19
you're screwing these two and once you
19:21
have your brass inserts everything else
19:23
should fall right into place okay we're
19:27
going to add the cd-rom back to your
19:28
back to your system you want to make
19:33
sure your SATA connectors the same ones
19:35
that are on the board and system board
19:36
the SATA and then your power say so you
19:40
want to slide it in from the front until
19:42
the front piece matches with the front
19:44
of your case and your screw holes are
19:47
lined up I'm going to take your screws
19:50
you want to make sure that they're snug
19:52
you don't want to you don't want to have
19:53
to bear down on them too hard you just
19:56
want to be able to get them into place
20:00
where it holds the cd-rom in place now
20:05
that your CD ROMs in place we're going
20:08
to add the hard drive back your SATA
20:10
connectors are on here this is power if
20:13
you if you have IDE power and you don't
20:15
have SATA power this hard drive has both
20:17
power connectors so you can add a power
20:20
connector similar to this from your
20:23
power supply if you need to or just use
20:26
regular SATA power I'm going to add this
20:28
back in what we want to do is we're
20:30
going to find our ledge where we want it
20:34
we're going to slide it back in notice
20:38
our screw holes are lined up into the
20:41
slots we can slide it all the way as far
20:44
back as we want or we can bring it as
20:47
far out as we need to the adjustment is
20:50
purely up to you and the space that you
20:53
have
20:55
take your screw line it up and then
21:04
slide either way now that these two
21:07
components are back in we're going to
21:09
add the power supply we will add a PCI
21:12
card all the other components are in but
21:15
I want to add the power supply now to
21:17
show you how everything plugs back into
21:19
place power supply will go upside down
21:22
this depends on the on the back angle
21:27
you want to go in an angle up turn it
21:31
straight slide it forward you want to
21:34
match up your holes your screw hole like
21:37
most power supplies there's a Ledge on
21:39
top underneath it will help you hold it
21:42
in place when you're ready to screw it
21:45
in line up your screw holes and screw
21:49
your power supply back in and this one
21:51
you want to make a little more snug than
21:52
the rest of them this sides this is all
21:55
your power here so you want to make sure
21:56
that it doesn't does it come loose now
22:02
your power supplies in snug it's not
22:05
going anywhere
22:06
now let's plug in our 24 pin power
22:11
connector there's 24 pins on your system
22:15
board it has 24 pins your plug your
22:18
squeeze pn is on this side right here
22:20
that locks and unlocks them and there's
22:24
a there's a ledge on the edge of your
22:25
power connector there so you just line
22:29
up your pins with the holes that are
22:32
there and push until you hear a snap and
22:36
it's locked into place your four pin
22:38
power connector again your clip there's
22:42
your power connector there there's your
22:44
clip there's a Ledge on the lip on the
22:46
edge
22:47
you line up the holes it only goes one
22:49
way it won't go the other way and push
22:52
until you hear it click into you that
22:54
clip clicks now we want to add power to
22:58
the rest of our system this is power so
23:01
this is a power plug that we can add for
23:03
the cd-rom add that power back again it
23:09
only goes one way power for the power
23:14
supper for the for the hard drive power
23:17
is there now your SATA plugs say the
23:24
plug for the cd-rom SATA plug for the
23:26
hard drive exactly the same setup the
23:30
difference is this one is kind of a
23:31
90-degree angle which allows it to to be
23:34
put in this way the path of the system
23:38
board I mean the hard drive doesn't need
23:40
it because you got more room over here
23:41
they do this in tight spots where you
23:44
can get to them a little easier so our
23:46
hard drive 0 SATA to 0 is going to plug
23:50
to the to the system board notice the
23:52
l-shape on this one as well there's the
23:55
there's a connector for it I'm going to
23:58
push it till we Clint hear it click
24:01
take this side again with the l-shape
24:06
sideways a tail we're going to plug it
24:08
to the hard drive push it till you hear
24:13
it click like that and we're going to do
24:18
the same thing for the cd-rom does it
24:21
matter what for the cd-rom goes to
24:23
there's say 2 0 then theta 1 theta 2 and
24:29
SATA 3 does not matter choose say to one
24:33
the next drive in line feed your cable
24:38
up and you plug it against your cd-rom
24:42
you want to try to keep your cables as
24:45
neatly as possible that way you're
24:46
they're not running into your fans and
24:48
you're not cumbersome and then you have
24:51
your other cables that plug into your
24:54
system board as well so let's start off
24:56
with the audio cable and if you remember
24:59
the audio plug was back here notice the
25:03
pins on this have a certain pin out
25:06
there's there's five pins then there's
25:09
three and number four is missing and we
25:11
have five again on the other one as well
25:13
the same pin out is on this we have five
25:17
pins we have three one missing and then
25:19
five so we will make sure we line those
25:22
up correctly and push all the way down
25:27
now we want to do the USB and the card
25:32
reader notice the pin outs are a little
25:34
different on this one you have five then
25:39
you have four and then the last one's
25:40
missing on that side so you find your
25:43
pin out the way you want it on here
25:45
slide it into place
25:48
do the same on this one slide it into
25:51
place this is a power connector for a
25:55
fan on on all power supplies your power
26:02
connector the main power is going to go
26:04
red then black then yellow anytime you
26:07
plug in to another power connector you
26:10
want to match up the colors and they
26:12
snap right into place this one doesn't
26:16
have red and black so we want to find
26:18
out we want to make sure that powers the
26:22
red is going to this power here so we
26:24
want to go ahead and slide it in place
26:27
as well this is a power LED positive and
26:32
negative this is our hard drive LED and
26:37
this is our reset switch so those plug
26:43
to this port right here you're going to
26:45
have to find where the color codes on
26:46
this but if you'll notice it tells you
26:50
which where each one unplug into so if
26:54
it's closest to this it's on this side
26:56
if it's farthest away it's on the
26:59
opposite side now that we've got our
27:03
cables plugged in connectors for the
27:05
front panel let's uh let's install the
27:08
PCI card with a PCI card you are make
27:12
sure it's lined up in your empty slot
27:14
and you push down here and it snaps into
27:18
place and you're screwed
27:20
you got to add your screw back to it put
27:23
your case back on
27:26
last thing we do is put our panel back
27:28
on make sure that the grooves line up of
27:33
where they go slides right back on put
27:36
your thumb screws back in and you are
27:39
back to normal
