or skills, talk to him/her about having them formally recognized so you don't have to
do the same training again. If you have a qualification or Certificate of Competency
from previous trainings, show it to your trainer. If the skills you acquired are still
current and relevant to the unit/s of competency they may become part of the
evidence you can present for RPL. If you are not sure about the currency of your
skills, discuss this with your trainer.
At the end of this module is a Learner’s Diary. Use this diary to record important
dates, jobs undertaken and other workplace events that will assist you in providing
further details to your trainer or assessor. A Record of Achievement is also
provided for your trainer to complete once you complete the module.
This module was prepared to help you achieve the required competency, in

Be able to document an installation or upgrade
Documentation needs to be kept up to date, recording any new hardware
installations or upgrades. This ensures that:
 The organisation knows which components are in which systems
 Users know how to get the best from their hardware
 Warranties can be implemented for faulty kit
Documentation includes the following:
 Installation process
 Updated manuals
Product registration is when you inform the manufacturer of your details when you
install the product. Reasons why Product registration is useful:
 it helps get faster technical support and advice from manufacturers about
components
 the manufacturer may send out technical advice or useful information to
purchasers if any problems are found with the product.
Product registration methods.
Online
This can be very quick and easy. Many installation wizards offer to register the
product online, so after entering your details the product can be instantly registered.
By post
This is where a card is filled in then posted to the manufacturer.
Remember:
storing receipts is good practice as they are proof of purchase and may be needed if
a warranty claim is made. A warranty claim will be honoured if the product is
registered, but if the registration was not made the receipt is also good evidence of
the date that the product was purchased.

disk will be installed in drive bay located inside the chassis.
2. hard disk drive stores information on a hard disk, a rigid platter or stack of
platters with a magnetic surface. Because hard disks can hold massive
amounts of information, they usually serve as computer's primary means of
storage, holding almost all of your programs and files. The hard disk drive is
normally located inside the system unit while a CD or DVD drive, usually
located on the front of the system unit. CD/DVD drives use lasers to read
(retrieve) data and write (record) data.

Perform Safety Check : There are possible risk involved with a newly installed
piece of computer hardware for example
1. electricity, from unsafe mains wiring or overloaded mains sockets
2. sharp edges left on the component, which users might cut themselves on
3. unsafe placing of equipment, which might cause damage to it
4. leaving the equipment set up so the user is uncomfortable when working the
kit
Testing: After rebuilding a computer system, it needs to be tested
1. Switch the system ON to check it starts without errors
2. use tools to check if it has any faults e.g., Hardware tools, such as cable
testers, are used to solve if there has any connectivity.
3. Use utilities to check that all is well with the system after an installation.
Software tools that may use to test a system include:
• utility software
• run-time analysers
Software Tools
Utility software includes hard drive diagnostic tools, USB analysers and many
others which can be used to examine parts of a computer
system.
Windows® includes a hard drive diagnostic tool named Chkdsk that can be
used to check a hard drive for errors.
USB analysers such as the Beagle USB Protocol Analyzer, can plug into a USB
port then show on the screen reports about how well the USB
port is working on a system. These tools are particularly useful
for organisations that need in-depth understanding of the USB
port, perhaps because they develop USB devices. They are less
useful for other organisations.
Other tools such as PC Tools, which can be used to improve a computer’s
performance or to examine parts of a computer system.
Run-time analyser is used to find out what programs are running, how much of the
computer resources they are using, information about
connections, data transfer rates and other live reports on how
the computer is behaving. Commercially available run-time
analysers, such as JRockit, Windows® includes a run-time
analyser named the Task Manager that you can start using the
Ctrl + Alt + Del keys together. This gives useful information
about what programs are running, how much processor time
they are using

Figure 7.3: There is a wide variety of run-time analysers that can be used to report
on a computer system.
Test procedures are created in-house and could include these steps:
1. Gathering test information. The first step is to run the tests required by the
procedure and find out what happens. You should record all the results of
your tests in a log so that you know which pass and which fail, thereby
requiring further action.
2. Validating the test information. The next step is to check the data you
gathered from the tests to make sure it is correct. This is usually done by
running the tests again.
3. Responding to test information. This step is important because you need to
be able to recognise when test shows problems or is successful.
4. Checking specification. The final step is an important end to testing . You
need to check the specification for the installation to make sure that it has
been met.
5. Have some copies of all the installation software that is required to install the
hardware.
