  • Steps to select and replace a power supply of a desktop computer that requires a minimum of 1,200 watts of power
  • Steps to transfer the power supply to the new system, including cautions and notes

    • Notes are tips and tricks for completing the process
    • Warnings are instructions to prevent harm or damage to the hardware
    • Cautions are instructions to prevent injury
    • Steps to test the power supply to ensure it is working properly after troubleshooting and reconciling end-user issues

Create your document using Microsoft® Word. You may augment your written guidance with flowcharts or illustrations created in Microsoft® PowerPoint®, Visio®, or another software application approved by your Instructor.

CIS 291 Week 4 Individual: IT Profile

In larger organizations, new computer setups are pre-defined by job title. If, for example, a new Customer Service Representative (CSR) is hired, the standard new system set-up for a CSR is pre-defined. All the IT representative has to do is place the order, install, and configure the computer.

In smaller and even mid-sized organizations, however, pre-defined IT requirements may not be available and the IT representatives need to identify a new employee’s needs based on what the employee does.

For this assignment, you are an IT representative in a small organization without pre-defined IT requirements per role. You are given a work request to set up a system for a new Outside Sales Representative.

Complete the IT Profile Worksheet to define the accessories and peripherals the new employee will need and the high-level steps needed to install and test one of the accessories. In this worksheet, you will:

  • Create a user profile that identifies the accessories and peripherals a new outside sales representative will need. A task description is provided in the worksheet.
  • Define high-level steps and considerations another IT rep would need to install, configure, and test one of the accessories or peripherals (not a printer).

Submit your completed worksheet to the Assignment Files tab.

 

CIS 291 Week 4 Individual: Printers

Your organization is streamlining its print technology selection process. Two factors that will guide their decisions are maintenance requirements and procedures.

Select three print technologies.

Identify and compare the following for each:

  • Maintenance needs (e.g., how does maintaining ink-based product differ from a laser/toner based product?)
  • Maintenance procedures

Display this information in one of the following ways:

  • A 8- to 10-slide presentation of with detailed speaker notes
  • A detailed chart or spreadsheet Microsoft® Word, Excel®, PowerPoint®, or another software application approved by your Instructor

Submit your assignment to the Assignment Files tab.

 

CIS 291 Week 5 Individual: Custom Built Computer

You have been tasked with building a custom desktop PC that will be used by Research and Development (R&D) programmers. This system should be comparable to a high-end gaming computer.

End-user requirements include the ability to:

  • Develop complex animations
  • Support resource-intensive multimedia development applications (think about the processor needed)

Complete the Custom Built Computer Worksheet to document the components that will be needed to build this system and define installation considerations. Ensure the system components are compatible with one another and meet the needs of the R&D team.

Include your name in the file name when saving the worksheet.

Submit the completed worksheet to the Assignment Files tab.
