...Corey Young Monday The first part of this video was talking about the history of the operating systems. The Microsoft OS were DOS that had a GUI interface, after that you had NT, 9x, 2000, XP, Vista which in my opinion was terrible, server 2003 and 2008. There are also other OS that have been out Unix and Linux is what Macintosh are built from and then you also have Mac OS X. Video 3.02 was talking about installing new hard ware, creating partitions and formatting partitions, and installing OS systems. Before you install an OS system after installing a new hard drive you need to create and format a partition which will be an c partitions. There are two types of partitions which are primary and extended. You can only create one of each with the FAT file system. The NTFS you can create four primary partitions or three primaries and one extended. In creating partitions you need to know the order they are created and deleted. The orders to create partitions are first primary then extended and logical. To delete a partition you will simple reverse the order. Video 3.03 is about comparing active, system and boot partitions. After creating partitions you need to mark one active which usually contains the boot file so you can start up the OS. The system and the boot partitions are part of this system. The system partitions contain boot files which contains the operating system which boots up the OS. The boot partition contains system files which contain the OS files. So the...

...Unit 5 Assignment 1: Video Summary NT1110 There are two major manufactures we use in today’s market which are Intel and AMD. There are some minor competitions but don’t stay on the market for long. The system bus for the CPU is also known as the Front-side bus as it inserts the CPU and has a 64 bit data pass. In the CPU theirs a controller that controls communication between the motherboard and other components with the CPU. The ALU is responsible for performing complex calculations. Communications between the controllers and the ALU’s uses a 32 bit wide internal data bus. A processor is usually measured in GHz. A system Bus is usually measured in MHz and has limiting factors of speed. The multiplier is the ratio between processor and the System bus. The system bus speed x multiplier equals the processor speed. CPU manufactures have come up with different ways to make the CPU work faster. Two multi-processing requires multiple processors (In other words your system must be designed to support more than one CPU on a single motherboard). Dual Core Processors have been recently developed, that means incorporating multiple processors with multiple ALU’s inside a CPU. These ALU’s process their information individually. There’s two cache memory’s which are SRAM and DRAM. SRAM is also called Static RAM, it is faster and more expensive then DRAM, it holds memory without being refreshed and DRAM must be refreshed. There are three types of RAM which are L1 cache, L2 cache, and L3 cache...

...Motherboards Marc Burzynski Unit 4 Assignment 1 NT1110 07/20/2013 Video 1.04 Summary This video talked about the differences in the different form factors motherboards as well as the similarities. It explains for those of us who prefer to build our own systems that we should select our motherboard before buying the tower and after we have selected the CPU. It also explains about the different types of connectors found on motherboards. List Of Topics, Terms And Definitions * Motherboard – The most important consideration, the size and shape is determined by form factor * ATX Form Factor – Replaced the AT form factor, ATX is smaller, easier to work on, better organization, has support for a wide variety of I/O devices, usually has is the P1 20 pin or 24 pin power connector, on the older ATX form factor motherboards were connected via the PS/2 connector at the back of the case, the newer ATX form factor motherboards connected keyboard and mouse via a USB, usually has between two and four DIMM slots, has either PCI E Oren AGP slot but not both, usually has 2 40 pin IDE slots, and usually 1 to 2 serial ATA slots. The ATA form factor was the first to introduce the soft power switch on the front of the computer; the soft power switch does not immediately cut power but instead allows the computer to go through the normal shutdown procedure. There is however a power switch on the back of the computer, flipping the switch immediately kills power. Another important...

...NT1110 Unit 8: Video Summary 6 Hardware Configurations I watched 4 videos on Hardware Configuration. They were, in order, Device Manager, Driver Signing, Hardware Profile and Regional and Language Options. The 1st, Device Manager went over how to manage all your hardware devices. It covers how they are configured, their settings, drivers and resources. It’s found in System Properties. After this, was Driver Signing which is Microsoft’s way of confirming that its devices and drivers have been tested and are compatible with Microsoft’s operating system. Each driver and device is checked off in the System Properties verifying its authenticity. There is also driving signing options for hardware installations with software that is not Windows. They are Ignore, which means install anyway. Warn, which means the system will prompt you to choose and Block, which blocks unsigned software. The next video was Hardware Profile. This is a list of devices enabled at the start of a computer and loading into the operating system. It too is found in System Properties. It covered how to change your hardware profile. It’s usually used for laptops. We can change what devices our system uses 1st for instance, changing the network connections when traveling. The last video was Regional and Language Options. This is found on the Control Panel. Here, you can set language or choose how you want your numbers, currency, time and dates displayed. You can go to Customize to make changes. Topics ...

...| Unit 3 Assignment 1 Video Summary 1 | NT1110 | | | 4/9/2013 | | 1.07 Ports and Connectors There are three types of ports used in computers. They are as follows: Serial Ports, Parallel Ports, and Game Ports. Serial Ports are male and may contain 9 or 25 pins. The serial port transfers data 1 bit at a time. Parallel ports are female connectors with a total of 25 pins and can transfer data 8 bits at a time. Game ports are female connectors also and contain two rows of pins that equal 15 total pins. On modern computers the Game Ports have been replaced by USB connectors. A Network Interface Card (NIC) converts parallel communication serial. The NIC connects to the network by a RJ-45 connector. Another option of connecting to the internet is with the use of a modem. A modem connects to a phone line with standard speeds of 56 Kbps. A V-92 modem supports faster speeds to get your tasks done. The modem converts analog to digital. This is the slowest way to connect to the internet. 1.09 Video There are two types of monitors used for computers. They are the CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) and the LCD (Liquid Crystal Display). The CRT is very similar to that of a television. The LCD on the other hand is very much different. The LCD uses TFT (Thin Film Transistor) also referred to as active matrix. The backlighting of the LCD screen is illuminated by polarized panels. The screen size of a monitor is one of the first things noticed when purchasing a computer. Screen size...
