High
voltage equipment and laser devices should NOT be serviced without
specific
training.

|
Power supplies مزود الكهرباء |
|
|
Laser (high power light sources) |
Do
not take ESD precautions with high voltage equipment – service personnel should
be fully insulated.
Do not
operate high power light sources with the case/covering open.
Hazardous
materials inside your PC include:
|
|
Batteries البطارية |
|
|
Toner kits and cartridges محابر الطابعات |
Recycle
old computers (charities, schools) or parts whenever possible.
Always
follow the manufacturer’s instructions when disposing of or mixing cleaning
products.
Static
electricity is not harmful to people, but is nasty to (and has a cumulative
effect on) most of your computer components. The risk of ESD increases
significantly under hot, dry conditions (think of removing laundry from the
dryer). Always take anti-static precautions when handling static-sensitive
components.
Static-sensitive
components and field replaceable units (FRUs) should always be put inside
anti-static bags, including:
|
|
Memory (especially sensitive) الذاكرة |

CPU (especially sensitive) المعالج |

Clock speed سرعة اللوحة الام is the rate the
processor executes instructions. (the faster the better usually) |
|
|
Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU)
داخل المعالج is the part of the CPU that processes data. |
|
|
Cache memory داخل المعالج(L1 or L2) is a very high-speed block of SRAM that interacts
between the CPU and system RAM. (Usually, the more the better). Pentium
processors use branch
prediction |
|
|
Data bus مسار المعلومات بين
المعالج والقطع الاخرى على اللوحة الام refers to the wires
(lines) that carry data to and from the processor (and cache, and RAM) (The
wider the better, usually) |
|
|
Address bus مسار
المعلومات التي تحمل عناوين المعلومات في الذاكرة – كلما كانت اوسع كلما كان ذلك افضل refers to the wires
(lines) that carry specific addresses to and from the processor. (The wider
the bus, the more addresses that can be sent simultaneously) |
|
|
Register size حجم المسجلات refers the size of the
temporary storage areas that hold data before and after processing by the
ALU. This also determines software compatibility: Windows 2000 instructions
are 32-bit, so it cannot run on a 16-bit processor. |
|
|
Multitasking متعدد
التنفيذ is either pre-emptive or cooperative. Pre-emptive
multitasking is controlled by the OS, which divides processor time
accordingly. Cooperative multitasking is performed by the applications
themselves |
|
|
Multiprocessing , which
usually increases system performance, takes place simply whenever a system
has more than one processor. Asymmetric multiprocessing allocates specific
tasks and applications to specific processors. Symmetric multiprocessing
(SMP) tasks and applications run off any processor (further increases
performance). |
|
|
Real Mode is a processor mode where addressable
memory (RAM) is seen as linear storage location that cannot be divided into
sections, nor allocated to specific (ie, memory-intensive) programs. It
cannot run Windows (no multitasking), only DOS. |
|
|
Protected Mode, introduced with the 286, allocates
specific amounts/sections of memory to applications, multitasks, and supports
virtual memory. All major OS use protected mode. Virtual
Real Mode (or enhanced Protected Mode) emulates real mode from within
protected mode to run DOS applications under Windows. |
