Installing a motherboard is not very easy because you have to take more care for properly installing it. If installation is not proper, then you have to face problems while using your computer.
The motherboard has to be fitted to the metallic plate inside the computer case. You can unscrew this plate from the case to install the motherboard. The plate as well as the motherboard has holes that have to be matched and screwed. Some holes in the plates and motherboard may not match and you don’t have to worry about that. The motherboard kit will have screws, nuts and washers for fitting the motherboard.
After screwing up the motherboard with the metallic plate, you have to install CPU and memory in the slots available with the motherboard. Only after completing installation of these components, you can close the computer case.
The motherboard will generally have a plastic socket covering CPU slot. You have to unlock the slot by simply pulling out the plastic wrap. Then align the CPU to the socket provided. To align the CPU, look for corner that has diagonal section containing the CPU label. Your motherboard will also have a similar pattern in the slot and you can now align the CPU. You should take care that you don’t push the CPU hard. The CPU should fall gently into the place if you have properly aligned it.
You need to first identify what type of RAM is needed for your desktop. You will mostly install the memory for speeding up your computer. This is a very simple process that takes only a few minutes.
After switching off the power, open the computer case. Locater the computer’s memory sockets in your motherboard.

Then you can take the memory module for inserting into the socket.
You need to remove the computer case completely for installing a CD drive. Locate the bay into which the drive has to be attached. It is essential that you remove the outer cover for inserting the drive.
The CD drive also comes with jumper settings and you can find the settings from the manual. Insert the drive into the bay and fix it with the four screws that are provided with the kit. Ensure that you support the bottom of the driver while inserting to prevent the slip.
There is no difference between installing CD and DVD drive. The drive you are going to use is different and the rest are the same. You need to set jumper selection properly for the drive to function properly. If you specify jumper selection that is already in use, you will get an error.
Disconnect power to computer and open the case. Also remove the plastic cover hiding the drive bay. You may push the DVD drive through the front panel or you can slide it from inside depending on your computer design.
Hard drive is important in all computers as it is the place where you will be storing all the data. The most common hard drive is IDE drive and installing this is a bit tricky as you have to use jumpers. If the drive is Serial ATA drive, then there will be no jumpers and installation is much easier.
The motherboard will generally have two IDE connectors. You have to use IDE2 for connecting DVD/CD drivers and IDE1 for connecting hard drive.
You need to familiarize yourself about the network card before installation. Before you install any component, make sure that you read the manual that came with the component. Since you have to touch electrical components, touch unpainted metallic ground to ground the static electricity that is present in your body and clothing. If you don’t do this correctly, the electrical components inside the computer may get damaged. You can wear anti-static wrist wrap alternately.

When you have large files, they take up more disk space. To reduce the amount of storage and for easy file transmission, you have to compress the files so that they take lesser space. Also, you can combine a large number of files in a single archive and transfer all the files with a single click. This compression is done by many file compressors and the common software’s are winzip and winrar. The files compressed using these two software will have zip and rar extensions respectively.
Page Fault Error Messages occur when the processor tried to access a page that is not in memory. Though this seems perfectly logical, you cannot find out which part of the program is causing such error. This error message is very common with internet explorer and many are suffering from this problem. The major reason for this problem is the shortage of virtual memory space.
Windows Protection Error Messages are either found during the system start up or shut down. You will get the message along with a device name.
