This unit extends the repair to the field of Computing Science and applies it to hardware and software related problems in computers.
Part of this unit is the replacement of an HDD hard drive with an SSD hard drive. In this context, the cloning of hard drives is discussed and a way of continuing to use old hard drives is demonstrated.
On the software side, the unit focuses on installing a new operating system. In connection with this, the topics of data backup, partitioning and formatting are dealt with in extracts.
Driver-related problems are also addressed and an insight into the bios is provided. The possibilities and limitations of how supposedly outdated computers can be technically upgraded and used beyond their apparently very short useful life are also discussed
