 Today in class we leant about OpCodes, and the main topic today was Power supplies. I had no idea how much went into a power supply, also found out that you do NOT want to open them up because you could cause a lot of harm to youself lol, We also had some tasks we did which are the pictures below, i didn't get them all complete but i do intend on improving them.

Flashing a Dell System 755 Blog Sept 16th

Today we learned a good amount about Cmos and Bios and flashing.. We even got some hands on experience with doing so, our group was handed a Dell System 755 and we had to fugure out how to flash it, down below are the steps we did complete it

The first thing we did to flash the ROM was the following…

Step 1 -Run the bios to get the model name

 Step 2 – Exit out and goto the website to get the right download for your model ( in this case it was Dell System 755)

Step 3 – goto the right download and run it, and click continue to perform the action.

this process took us around 5-7 minutes


Sept 13th Blog

This will be blog for September 13th,

Over the past week we have been learning a great deal about IT, I now know how to use Microsoft office more effciently and learned a good deal with PowerPoint. Another thing that I'm really interested in learning that we started the other day is Hard Drives. I'm eager to learn more about them and i'm really looking forward for the next few lessons, We even got some hands on experience and it was a lot of fun. I still need to find more information about all of this but so far its going okay
