Answers and Explanations

1The following PC, supplied with a 4 GB hard disk, CD-ROM drive and audio board, has had components added by the user, and now no longer works. Which of the following could be the source of its failure to operate properly?

c There is an HP 32 MB memory module in memory socket C1, but socket C2 is empty.

d Memory sockets B1 and B2 are empty.

e There is a pair of non-HP 4 MB memory modules in bank A.

Installing non-HP accessory boards and drives does not infringe the specification of the PC (though the non-HP products are not supported by HP, and the customer pays for the visit, the HP PC remains supported). However, installing non-HP memory modules is not within the specification of the PC, and would cause the PC to be unsupported by HP.

2The client wishes to accelerate the processing throughput of the PC. Which of the following options are viable:

b Replacing the current processor by an overdrive processor (when available).

d Installing more main memory modules.

HP does not support the replacement of a processor by a faster one, unless it is an official overdrive equivalent for the original processor, even when models exist that use the faster processor. It is not possible to install modules into the processor module. Installing more main memory increases the performance of the virtual memory system.

3Which of the following statements is correct (when installing a device in the lower 5.25-inch front-access drive shelf of the desktop model)?

c The PC is supplied with the correct replacement bezel for the drive.

The Universal Front Bezel is supplied in the side of the PC (see page 9) and should fit most designs of 5.25-inch drive. The kit of bezels can be ordered if the client has lost this bezel. The PC risks accumulating dust and dirt, and will not look attractive, if the drive is fitted without a bezel.
