  4. Drive Power Connectors Berg connector for floppy disk drive Molex connectors for IDE and SCSI drives

  5. Common Power Problem Symptoms

  6. How Surge Protectors Protect Computer Equipment Electrical current flows from the outlet to the surge protector. Electrical current that is within tolerance limits for thecurrent flows into the unit and powers its components. Extra voltage is diverted to the unit’s ground or neutral wire.

  7. BIOS TheBasic Input Output System (BIOS) is the set of instruction commands stored on a ROM chip that is used to start the most basic services of a system.

  8. CMOS CMOS is an area of memory with battery backup that is used to store the system configuration settings that the ROM BIOS accesses during the startup sequence.

  9. BIOS Settings BIOS settings are the low-level hardware configuration settings that are stored in the CMOS on every computer.

  10. Accessing the System BIOS

  11.  POST is run by the BIOS. CPU checks for BIOS.   BIOS      The Boot Process Power supply initializes and sends signal to CPU. Devices identified in CMOS are detected, configured, and tested. PnP devices are detected and configured. BIOS checks CMOS to locate the disk drive to boot. Hardware BIOS located, loaded, and run. BIOS information is displayed on screen and runs system tests, including a memory test.

  12. Video Output Audio Output Problem Solution None None Power Check power cords, wall voltage, PC’s power supply. None Cursor Power Check the PC’s power supply; check for sufficient wall voltage. None DOS prompt None May be a defective speaker. One short, one long beep None Display Check for monitor power; check video cable; check display adapter. One or more short beeps DOS prompt None (normal startup beep) None. Two short beeps None or incorrect display (garbage) Display Check for monitor power; check video cable; check display adapter. Two short beeps Error code number See the next table for a list of error codes and their interpretations. Repeating short beeps Probably none Power Check the PC’s power supply; check for sufficient wall voltage. Continuous tone Probably none Power Check the PC’s power supply; check for sufficient wall voltage. One long, one short beep Probably none Motherboard Check to see that all adapters, SIMMs, and chips are seated firmly; check for proper power connections to the motherboard; use diagnostic software or hardware to further troubleshoot the motherboard. One long, two short beeps Probably none Display Check for monitor power; check video cable; check display adapter. One long, three short beeps Probably none Display Check for monitor power; check video cable; check display adapter. POST Results

  14. CMOS Error Codes

  15. CPU The Central Processing Unit (CPU) is the integrated circuit that controls all of the system components.

  16. Bus Types • Internal • External • System (frontside) • Data • Address • Control • Backside

  17. CPU Performance Factors • Clock speed • Millions of Instructions Per Second (MIPS) • Amount of RAM that a processor can access • Multiprocessing • Cache • Superscalar • Superpiplining • Speculative execution • Branch prediction • Register renaming • Out-of-order completion • Dual Independent Bus (DIB) • Multimedia Extensions (MMX) • Single Instruction Multiple Data (SIMD)
