Assembling and Disassembling PC
Computer Assembly Is An Essential Job Of A Computer Installation
Technician.
Computer Assembly Is A Process In Which All The Internal Components
Required For The Computer System Are Fitted So As To Make The Computer
Functional. There Is A Proper Sequence Of Attachment Of Each And Every
Component Into The Computer System.
Introduction
Computer Assembly
As We Know, Computer Assembly Is A Systematic Process. First, Arrange The
Computer Parts.
The Sequence For Computer Assembly
1. Open The Case
2. Install The Power Supply
3. Attach The Components To The
Motherboard
4. Install The Motherboard
5. Install Internal Drives
6. Connect All Internal Cables
7. Install Motherboard Power Connections
8. Connect External Cables To The
Computer
9. Boot The Computer For The First Time.
Material Required
 Computer Case, With Power
Supply Installed
 Motherboard
 CPU
 Heat Sink/Fan Assembly
 Thermal Compound
 RAM Module(s)
 Motherboard Standoffs And
Screws
 Anti-static Wrist Strap And
Anti-static Mat
 Tool Kit
Procedure for Computer Assembling
Step 1: Open The Case
The First Step In Assembling A Computer Is To
Open The Computer Case.
To Open The Case, First Remove The Screws Of
The Left Side Cover And Slide The Side Cover.
Step 2: Install The Power Supply
The Next Step Is To Install A Power Supply.
There Are Usually Four Screws That Attach
The Power Supply To The Case.
Step 3: Attach The Components To Motherboard
The Motherboard Has To Be Prepared
Before Its Installation. To Prepare The
Motherboard, You First Need To Install
The CPU, Then The Heat Sink On The
CPU And CPU Fan.
CPU
A CPU Socket Uses A Series Of Pins To Connect A CPU’s
Processor To The Pc’s Motherboard. If A CPU Is Connected Via A
CPU Socket.
Heat sink and fan assembly
A Heat Sink And Fan (HSF) Is An Active Cooling Solution
Used To Cool Down Integrated Circuits In Computer Systems,
Commonly The Central Processing Unit (CPU).
Connect The Assembly Power Cable To The CPU Fan
Connector On The Motherboard.
Installation of RAM
To Install The RAM First On The Motherboard
And Then Fix The Motherboard In The Case. To
Install RAM, First Ensure Its Compatibility With
The Motherboard.
After Preparing The Motherboard, You Can Install In
The Computer Case.
Step 4: Install motherboard
The Hard Drive Is The Device Which Stores All The Data.
Connect The Power Cable Coming From The SMPS To The Power Socket Of
Hard Disk Drive.
Connect SATA Data Cable From Hard Disk Drive Socket To The Motherboard
Socket
Step 5: Install internal drives
Hard drive
Power Cables Are Used To Distribute Electricity From The Power
Supply To The Motherboard And Other Components. Data Cables
Transmit Data Between The Motherboard And Storage Devices,
Such As Hard Drives.
Step 6: Connect all internal cables
The Advanced Technology Extended (ATX) Main Power Connector
Will Have Either 20 Or 24 Pins.
Step 7: Install motherboard power connections
Step 8: Connect external cables to the computer
Connecting Monitor
The VGA Cable Is Used To Connect To Monitor.
Step 8: Connect external cables to the computer
Connecting Keyboard
If It Uses A USB Connector, Plug It Into Any Of
The USB Ports On The Back Of The Computer.
Step 8: Connect external cables to the computer
Connecting Headphones Or Speakers, And Microphone
Connect The External Speakers Or Headphones, To
Computer’s Audio Port (Either On The Front Or Back Of
The Computer Case).
Step 8: Connect external cables to the computer
Connect The Computer To A Power Supply
Power Supply Cable Connect Into The Back Of The
Computer Case.
Step 8: Connect external cables to the computer
Connecting Printer, Scanner, Webcam
Step 9: Starting the computer
Always Remember That The First Step Is To Push Power Button Of The
CPU Than The Monitor’s. An Operating System Or System Software
Like Window Or Linux Will Start Loading, Now Your Computer Is Ready
To Use.
Procedure for Computer Dissembling
Disassembly Is The Process Of Breaking Down A Device Into Separate
Parts.
Material Required
 One Working PC
 An Anti-static Wrist Strap
 An Anti-static Mat
 Anti-static Bags Of Various Sizes
 Technician’s Toolkit
 A Plastic Cup Or Box To Organize Screws, Nuts, And Bolts
Procedure for Computer Dissembling
Step 1: Unplugging
 Unplug The Power Cord From The PC
 Unplug All The Peripherals Attached To The
Computer, Such As The Keyboard, Mouse,
Monitor, Headphones.
Procedure for Computer Dissembling
Step 2: Open The Case
First Remove The Screws Of The Left Side Cover And Slide The Side Cover.
Procedure for Computer Dissembling
Step 3: Disconnect All The Connectors
Disconnect All The Connectors Connected To The
Motherboard. These Include SATA Power Cable And Data
Cable Of HDD As Well As SATA Cable Of Optical Drive
Procedure for Computer Dissembling
Step 4: Remove The Fan
Remove The Fan Now.
Procedure for Computer Dissembling
Step 5: Remove The Power Supply
Remove The Power Supply Is Connected To The
Motherboard By A 20-pin Connector And 4-pin
Connector.
Procedure for Computer Dissembling
Step 6: Removing HDD And Optical Drive
Remove The SATA Cable Connecting To The HDD
And Optical Drive In Motherboard.
Procedure for Computer Dissembling
Step 7: Remove RAM (Random Access Memory) Modules
To Remove The RAM
Procedure for Computer Dissembling
Step 8: Remove Expansion Cards
To Remove The Expansion Cards, Disconnect The
Cables Attached To It.
Procedure for Computer Dissembling
Step 9: Remove Motherboard
To Remove The Motherboard, Disconnect All The
Cables From The Motherboard.
Procedure for Computer Dissembling
Step 10: Reassemble The Components
 Identify Every Component And Take Its Photograph.
 After Identification Of Each Component, Put All The
Components Back In Their Place And Ensure That All
Cables And Wires Are Connected At The Right Place To
Avoid Further Troubleshooting.
