1.) Look at the back of your computer. Without opening the case, list the ports that you believe come directly from the motherboard.
Mouse/Keyboard inputs, COM Port, Printer Port, VGA port, USB Ports, LAN port, Line In/Line Out/Mic in.
2.) Remove the cover of the case, which you learned to do in Chapter 4. List the different expansion cards in the expansion slots. Was your guess correct about which ports come from the motherboard?
The two expansion slots on this motherboard are the PCI-Express x16 Slot and the regular PCI Slot
My guess was correct about the first question. wOOt.
4.) Draw a Diagram of the motherboard and label these parts:
Processor, RAM, CMOS Battery, Expansion slots, each port coming directly from motherboard, power supply connections, SATA or IDE Drive connectors, and floppy drive connector.
6.) What is the brand and model of the motherboard?
Biostar Viotech 3100+
7.) Locate the manufacturers website. If you can find the motherboard manual on the site, download it.
