Computer Repair
How often are you guilty of doing this “at” your computer? Like it can really hear you.
This type of frustration is usually
caused by not understanding how a computer works or not knowing how to
correct it when it does not work like it was intended to. Shortly after you begin classes, you
learn how a computer functions and how to repair it when it breaks. Most problems with operating systems and
software programs are USER generated.
Not only will you have to pay someone to fix it for you but you will
be without your computer for at least several days. This class can start you off in the very
much in demand profession of PC Repair, get you the foundation for a career
in Networking, or just save you hundreds, even thousands of dollars by
doing your own repairs. The
knowledge you get from this course will also enable you to buy the right
equipment when it comes time to purchase your computers and printers.

10-12) This second year course will focus mainly on
troubleshooting and an introduction to networking. Computers need
repairing from time to time due to either hardware or software
problems. Once you determine it is a hardware problem, you simply
replace the defective part and you are back in business. Software
problems, however, are much more difficult to remedy. Microsoft has
several different operating systems that are being used by consumers today
and each system has it’s own tools to assist the technician in diagnosing the
problems. The student will spend a great deal of time in the lab
exploring these operating systems and using their tools to diagnose and
repair computers. Small-Office/Home-Office ( Prerequisite:
