∙ 14y agobasically the physical parts of a computer system are all components you see in your system. All the tangible parts including the monitor, system unit, AVR, keyboard, mouse and even all the internal and electronic components inside the system unit. those are the microprocessor, the expansion slots and cards, the memory and all the heat dissipators.

∙ 14y agoThe CD rom, the floppy, mouse, printer, keyboard, monitor, and system unit. CD-ROM
These are the silvery plastic disks that look just like music CD's. Application software (programs) usually come written on these, and special kinds of CD-ROM's can be used to store large amounts of data. Floppy Disk
This is a somewhat floppy coated disk housed inside a not-floppy plastic case about the size of a square beverage coaster. The floppy, once inserted into the appropriate slot in the system unit, is used to store files. Once the files have been written, the floppy can be removed for use on another computer or for safe keeping as a backup or data archive. Keyboard
This is organized like a regular typewriter keyboard and has some extra keys for special functions. Attaches to the system unit with a cord. Monitor (or display)
The part of the computer that looks like a small TV and shows you what is going on. Usually has 2 cords: one for power and the other for connecting to the system unit. Mouse
This device is about the size of a pack of cigarettes and allows the computer user to select from options displayed on the screen. By sliding the mouse around on a flat surface (usually a thin foam pad) the user moves a pointer on the screen. When the tip of the pointer is positioned over the desired item, the user clicks the mouse (a single or double click) to select the item. A single cord connects the mouse to the system unit. System Unit (sometimes referred to as CPU)
The part of the computer that is box-like, usually the size of a medium to large briefcase with slots for disks and connectors on the back. Inside this box are the microprocessor, disk drives and other elements that work together to do the actual computing. Printer a peripheral which produces a hard copy of documents stored in electronic form, usually on physical print media such as paper or transparencies.

What is the Box like case that contains the electronic components of the computer?
the tower
What is made of metal or plastic and protects the internal electronic components from damage?
Case System Unit Form Factor
What are similarities and differences between computer case and system unit?
System unit refers to the housing plus the components inside the box. While a computer case is just a 'case' itself w/o the hardware components attached to it.
How does CMOS work?
CMOS is the little battery in the computer's motherboard which keeps the computers internal clock running.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of having an external hard drive and an internal hard drive?
External drives are easier to transport from computer to computer than internal, but generally cost much more for the same amount of storage space, and transfer/access files more slowly than an internal drive. (Copying things to and from an external take longer than your regular hard drive.) Internal drives are cheaper than externals for the same storage space, and respond more quickly, but can be difficult to install without help or experience working inside your computer. They can also pose problems when trying to transport them and connect them to others' computers, although in general it is possible to do so. So: externals are better for storing data that you'd like to share with people easily, while internal is better for the main storage of information on your desktop computer.
What is computer shutdown?
a computer is to remove power from a computer's main components in a controlled way. After a computer is shut down, main components such as CPUs, RAM modules and hard disk drives are powered down, although some internal components, such as an internal clock, may retain power.
What provides power to the internal components of the computer?
In the case of a desktop computer a power supply that in turn plugs into a household outlet provides power to the internal components of the computer. In the case of a laptop or tablet a battery provides power.
What does a fans do into a computer?
Increases air flow which keeps internal components from overheating.
Why should a technician avoid using magnetized tools when repairing a computer?
They can induce current which can damage internal computer components.
Will upgrading my computer involve dismantling; disconnecting some of the internal components and connecting new ones again, requiring an expert to do the jobs or I can do it myself?
You can probably do it yourself, but you will have to muddle around with internal components.
Does a computer in a vacuum heat up?
Yes it does. The heat comes from the internal components - not the air around it.
Function of a motherboard?
motherboard is the heart of the computer, also provide an area where the internal components can connect.
Internal components of the computer?

A monitor is an example of hardware?
A monitor is not normally considered hardware, the internal components of a computer are considered hardware.
How do components get power?
A computer's power supply unit provides all needed voltages for the components of a computer that are internal. Externals either draw power from the USB bus (which in turn gets it's power from the aforementioned PSU or a Hub with a power supply) OR have their own internal power supply with a cable.
Can a computer operate without a fan?
Technically yes, but not for very long, as the hardware components, most notably the processor, generate alot of heat inside the computer. If the internal heat of the computer gets too hot, it can actually MELT some of the hardware components, damaging the computer.
Does Targus Laptop Cases come with internal pockets that fit computer components?
Yes, Targus laptop cases and bags will typically have internal and often external pockets for storage.
