ABSTRACT

Cloning of Computer System includes its equipment segments, establishment of its

product applications and testing of its ability and sturdiness by programming
establishment which is vital in an ICT working condition. This venture concentrates
more on how PC framework could be coupled, kept up successfully and proficiently with
no shortcoming during amassing of the framework and having a high programming
presentation. Throughout this project I focus on each and every component needed for
assembling and also their functions. The main reasons why people go for assembling of
system instead of buying a new system is to allow them have good and satisfactory
quality of what they want (specification and durability). Buying a new computer system
might not solve the problem of some people but coupling it themselves ease their
wounds when it comes to satisfaction. The main importance of coupling a computer
system is to have access to all those components and to know how to couple and
disassemble it when the system is faulty.
1.0 INTRODUCTION
HP Computer, situated in Houston, Texas, is the world's biggest PC producer and the
fourth biggest data innovation (IT) organization. From 1992-1997, the organization's
forceful high volume PC system moved it to high development rates in incomes, while
its initiative in PC servers supported solid edges and drove benefit development.
Beginning in 1995, previous CEO Eckhard Pfieffer started to change HP from an
unadulterated PC organization to a full administration IT organization, with the objective
of turning into a $50 billion organization that could rival any semblance of IBM and
Hewlett-Packard. The key moves were the acquisitions of Tandem Computer and Digital
Equipment Corporation in 1997 and 1998, giving HP a variety of advances and
administration abilities. Building and amassing a PC framework, gives the most extreme
fulfillment to the client and a compensating knowledge. To Assemble Desktop PC
(Personal Computer) the clients/manufacturers of such frameworks are most likely
mulling over building or collecting a PC as opposed to acquiring one prefabricated or
pre-gathered. This task is to illuminate us on how PC designing understudies can
fabricate a PC and distributed system with less pressure and less measure of cash, and
how the PC developed can meet with the handling prerequisite of the school Laboratory.
This undertaking has figured out how to buy the Sub-Assembly PC parts and couple it to
make a PC framework that could equal the presentation of the marked variant. This
predetermined PC will be tried with normal programming to check its ability, execution,
toughness and proficiency.

1.1 Background to the Study

The rapid advancements in technology and the increasing demand for computing
resources have led to the need for efficient methods of cloning computer systems. The
process of copying all data and settings from one computer to another, known as
computer cloning, can save time and effort in setting up new machines and maintaining
a consistent computing environment.

1.2 Statement of the Problem

The traditional method of setting up new computers involves manually installing the
operating system and software applications, as well as configuring settings according
to the user's requirements. This process can be time-consuming and prone to errors.
Additionally, maintaining consistency across multiple computers becomes a challenge.
Therefore, there is a need for a computer cloning system that can automate the process
and ensure accurate replication of the source system.

1.3Motivation of the Study

The motivation behind this project is to develop a computer cloning system that
simplifies the process of deploying new computers and enables efficient maintenance
of existing ones. By automating the cloning process, organizations can save time and
resources, reduce human errors, and ensure consistency across their computing
infrastructure
1.4 Aim and Objectives of the Study
The aim of this study is to design and implement a computer cloning system that can
automate the replication of computer system configurations. The objectives of the
study are as follows:

Identify the requirements and challenges of computer cloning.

Review existing literature and related work on computer cloning systems.
Develop a methodology for system analysis and data collection.
Design the system architecture, including input, output, and database components.
Implement the hardware and software requirements for the computer cloning system.
Test and evaluate the system for functionality and performance.
Provide recommendations for improvements and future work.
Significance of the Study
The significance of this study lies in its ability to simplify and automate the process of
setting up and maintaining computer systems. By developing a computer cloning
system, organizations can streamline their IT operations, reduce costs associated with
manual configurations, and ensure consistent computing environments. This study also
contributes to the existing body of knowledge on computer cloning systems and
provides insights for further research in this field.

1.5 Limitation of the Study
