Anybody know how I can learn to install hardware like hard drives, memory, CPUs, fans, CD-ROMs (and otherwise prep for the A+ exam)? I have looked for classes in my area, and it seems like universities either don’t offer them without your enrolling in an entire program, they’re rip-offs according to comments by others or they are online classes. I want hands-on experience, but would take very good online videos. I prefer to not just mess around with my computers trying to learn without guidance.

james asked:


I was looking at ‘Upgrading and Repairing PCs (18th Edition)’ by Scott Mueller. I have the 11th edition and was thinking about the new 18th edition. But, after reading some of the more critical reviews on Amazon.com, I’m not so sure I should get it. They say the author doesn’t cover some new and commonly used advances like duel core technologies and other such things.

Has anyone read this new edition? I’m sure the new edition is great, despite not talking much about a few things. You can read the review at this link:

http://www.amazon.com/Upgrading-Repairing-PCs-18th/dp/0789736977/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1211008702&sr=8-1

If you know of a better, up to date book on the subject of Computer hardware, please let me know. I am entering into computer programming and want to study hardware. I can read the 11th edition for historical value if you think there is a better book that doesn’t cover history like Scott Mueller does.

Thanks all.
