Discussion: "Purchasing and Installing Hardware"
Please respond to the following:
Now that you've learned this week how to select the appropriate peripherals, memory modules, cooling systems, etc.
1. In a few sentences, discuss how you may have to adjust the BIOS settings when you install them. Based on your learning this week, how does the BIOS/CMOS manage hardware? What analogy would you use to describe the interaction? Describing how you think of these ideas might help one of your classmates. Be as creative as you would like to be.
2. Remember to get in early in the week to do your TestOut labs each week. Return to this discussion and read some of your classmates' posts. Post a reaction to classmates who have posts you find interesting.
3. Additional Post Option: Now that you have the information, describe how your shopping for computer parts will be affected. Do you feel more confident in shopping online without someone in a store there to help you? Be specific in your comments to help your classmates learn.
