The personal computer is the universal technical system. It is intended for automation, creation, storage, processing and transportation of the data. One of main assignments of a computer is processing and storage of the information. Its configuration can be changed as required.
Your computer is made up of many parts called hardware. Your hardware runs software – programs that translate the instructions you send to your computer into a language it can understand.
The base configuration of a hardware that makes up the most basic computer system includes three devices: a monitor, a keyboard, and a system unit. The most important components placed in a system unit are called internal. The system unit holds your computer’s processor, memory, disk drives, ports, and video card. The external and peripheral units are also connected to a system unit.
