About

In this series we will first cover the basics of PC hardware, then we will proceed to cover troubleshooting computers and how to tell if the problem is with software or hardware. We will also explain how and where to find accurate and helpful information on any specific problem. We will finish with computer repair safety (What you can open up and what you CAN'T! safely), and guides. We will finish every session with a game about the topic covered in that session.

This series is specific to hardware in desktop PC's and laptops, but not Macs, Ipads, tablets, or phones.

When you are done you should have a good grasp on what makes your computer go, how it can fail, and maybe even how to fix it!

View Profile

I am a home schooled student in the junior year of high school living in Florida. My primary interests are in engineering, and I would like to provide assistance with STEM related subjects such as math and computer programming. For fun I enjoy participating in space and physics related citizen science projects on zooniverse.com, researching random technologies and subjects into the ground on the internet, learning Mandarin Chinese, and programming.
