CSS: COC1 - Install and Configure Computer Systems

                                     

                                                  STEPS and INSTRUCTIONS

1.    Remove all jewelries, watches, and static. Or at least show the assessor you are doing so.

2.    Disassemble the computer while taking notes on what peripherals you are taking out from the unit. You will have to remove also the processor, power supply and the motherboard from the case.
a.  Example, if you remove a memory card, write the quantity (1 piece), the type (DDR3), and description (1GB). That’s why it is important that you know the parts of a computer.
b.  TIP: count the cables that you disconnect from the motherboard and know to which they are attached to.
c.  Pay attention also to the cables for the front panel of the PC. E.g. light indicators for HDD, reset button, power button, usb power et cetera. One missed cable will cost you lots of time.

3.    Assemble the computer.
a.    Now this is fairly simple. Last out should be first in. Use the list of the items that you removed as reference.
b.   Once done. Turn on the PC. If it’s working, good for you. If not, troubleshoot as fast as you can and do not be disheartened. There’s a lot of time!

4.  Create a bootable USB. 
You have to know how to create a bootable usb using the DISKPART command in the command prompt and/or how to make a bootable usb using RUFUS. Search the net, it’s simple. The assessor will not really make you create the bootable usb, he/she will just check if you know the process.

5.   Once done, the assessor will hand you a working bootable usb which you will use in reformatting the PC. 
NOTE: If the usb isn’t working, ask for another one. I had an experience wherein the one they gave me did not work. Remember, time is limited.

6.    Insert the usb, configure the BIOS to boot from the usb then restart your PC.

7.    Go on with the formatting process.
a.    You will be asked to create three partitions with specific disk space, know how to.

8.    Once OS installation is finished, you will be handed a new usb containing the drivers and applications which you will use.
a.    Install the drivers first
b.    Install MS Office Suite
c.    Install Anti-virus
d.    Pin the shortcuts to the desktop

9.    Have the assessor check your work.
