A+ Hardware/Software - 10/2/2007

Hey guys, sorry for the late post. This is literally the first chance I've had to post since we got out of class. Wow.

Anyway, we covered the ins and out of the main system board (AKA the motherboard), and some of the common things we like to plug into them. Some examples of stuff we do like to plug into motherboards are hard drives, expansion slots (and then all the stuff that goes into those), processors, RAM, etc.

Later, we did lab 3, which had us exploring the BIOS settings of our computers. Keep in mind that the book examples were 10 years old, and that each motherboard has its own BIOS which differs a little bit from other BIOSes. As long as you know the basiscs of the BIOS, which is what I was going for with that lab, you'll do fine.

We covered a lot of information today, and hopefully I didn't totally drown you with it. See ya next week!

Homework:
  • Chapter 3: Exam Questions 1-10 (the multiple choice questions)
