Computer maintenance is the art of ensuring that computers are in
a good state of repair.
This art include
cleaning,
backup,
disk maintenance and
software update maintenance.

Computer maintenance is basically the same as any other type of

maintenance and it is a set of service.
well maintained computer will be run faster, more efficiently

Hardware maintenance
Computer hardware is that visible components of the Computer that
enable the Computer System
to function properly
Computer Hardware is made up of various components.
In the hard ware part of the system we have different component
RAM

POWER SUPLLLY

CPU

CPU cache

And anther major component in the motherboard

Components like the CPU, RAM, Power Unit, Speakers etc. have their
slots on the motherboard of the Computer

usual symptom of a failed motherboard is a completely dead system.
Fans, drives, and other peripherals may spin up if the motherboard
is dead, but
more often nothing at all happens when you turn on the power. No
beeps, no lights, no fans and etc

 Random Access Memory (RAM) is a way for our computer to
store temporary data that it is likely to need soon.
A CPU cache is a small amount of memory that is stored right
on the CPU chip.
 Both the RAM and CPU cache are temporary data
stores that are cleared when our computer is turned off

 Power Supply Unit (PSU) - this converts the AC power
to DC power which contain both a rectifier and
transformer
 The rectifier and transformer that convert AC house

current to DC to Steps down voltage from 110 V or 220

V to3.5, 5, and 12 V



MOS is short for Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor.

CMOS battery inside computers that stores information such
as the system time and date

 Symptoms of a CMOS battery problem

When the battery fails the system settings and the date and time will not be saved

Modifications of a software product after delivery in order to
improve
performance, correct faults, adapt the product to a modified
environment.
Software maintenance helps to ensure that your computer programs
and files are accessible and work correctly.
Antivirus scans are a form of software maintenance,

05/23/23 9
1.Clearly discuss component of computer, maintenance
with the symptom of problem in the hard ware category
2.Discus the protective and electromagnetic device
3.What are the difference between wiring and lay out
diagram give clear explanation and supportive figure
