I was working with Amanda and John; In this class we took the computer components out of the computer then looked at each peice. I learned about how the computer works with the motherboard and how everything is linked by the IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics.) - these are the grey wide but thin cables linking up to the major components; EG: CD-Rom Drive.
We had to do some safety things too, we used anti static wrist bands with small crocodile clips (these are to link up to any metal part on the computers "shell") we also stood on red mats, this was to stop the friction coming from the carpet up threw out body's and shocking us when we use the PC.
Then after it was all rebuilt and put back together, we filled out a task sheet on what problems etc we had on the computer.
