Hardware Tips

Assembling process
Required components:
1.     System case
2.     SMPS(Switch Mode Power Supply)
3.     Motherboard
4.     RAM(Random Access Memory)
5.     CPU chip (Central Processing Unit)
6.     Optical Disk Drive
7.     CPU fan
8.     Hard Disk Drive
9.     Graphics card
Assembling the Computer is the process of making a completely working system combining various parts of compatible hardware of the computer system.  A computer is said to be assembled when its various hardware components like Hard Disk, Memory, Power Supply, SATA/PATA etc. are connected manually in a proper way so that the system functions smoothly.

Things to Consider:

·         Hold the main board and expansion cards by edges
·         Return the main board and peripherals to
anti-static bags
·         Disconnect the power before working on the system
·         Never place the components above the material that can pass electricity
·         It is advised not to touch in the middle of internal components like processor, motherboard as it can get short-circuit by static electricity.
·         We should use correct type of SMPS for the system as requirement provided by the technical professional.

Step 2: Insert CPU chip into CPU slot and close the socket.

Step 3: Insert CPU fan and Fan wire into motherboard. Make sure screw was tided correctly. 

Step 4: Insert Motherboard into System Case.

Step 5: Insert Optical Disk Drive. Tide the screw.

Step 6: Insert Graphics card into PCI slot while managing Graphics port.

Step 7: Insert HDD in the system case.

Step 8: Insert SMPS in the case and tide the screw.

Step 9: Connect all the cable simultaneously.

Testing connections:
Plug in PSU power cord into PSU and to wall outlet and start computer. Use usual precautions when handling electricity! Test to see the following are running - all 3 fans - case, CPU, PSU, (and video card fan(s) if separate video card installed). Test power button (PC comes on and off) and reset button (HDD LED light blinks once). Test to see all 3 LED lights work - PLED light (power on light that stays on when PC is on), DVD LED light (comes on at start then goes off), HDD LED light (blinks initially).

Put back case left, right and front panels

Screw back case left and right panels with thumb screws. Make sure you get the sidescorrectlay, a case side panel with a window faces the front side of the motherboard giving the components ventilation.

Database Management System(DBMS)

Data and Information  Data is an unprocessed raw fact which does  not give complete meaning about any object,person, entity etc. But when various inter-related data arranged in a row, it gives a complete meaning which is referred to as information. For Example: ID Name Address Program 1101 Ram Shrestha Biratnagar BScIT         is information of a specific person. Database Database is a repository(storage) for the organized collection of related information  of data items. It Consist of meaningful arrangement of data, relationship, constraints, schema etc. In modern days we define database as a computerized record-keeping system used to store information and allows users to retrieve and update these information on their request. Some example of databases are telephone directory, data of SLC result, student and employee records etc. Database Management System(DBMS) Database is the softw...

What is Java Applets?

An applet is a special kind of Java program that is designed to be transmitted over the Internet and automatically executed by a Java-compatible web browser. Furthermore, an applet is downloaded on demand, without further interaction with the user. If the user clicks a link that contains an applet, the applet will be automatically downloaded and run in the browser. Applets are intended to be small programs. They are typically used to display data provided by the server, handle user input, or provide simple functions, such as a loan calculator, that execute locally, rather than on the server. In essence, the applet allows some functionality to be moved from the server to the client.

What is manipulator in C++?

Answer: Manipulators are special functions that can be included in the I/O statement to alter the format parameters of a stream. Table-2 shows some important manipulator functions that are frequently used. To access these manipulators, the file < iomanip.h > should be included in program.                               Table-2               Manipulators                                                    Equivalent ios function               set...
