A 'motherboard' is the core of all functions of a computer. Motherboard is connected to all the'Hardwares' of computer e.g. scanner, printer, CD/DVD player, pen drive, mouse, keyboard, monitor hard drive an what
not. Motherboard is a very complicated printed circuit board(PCB) comprising various types of Chipsets, Transistors, Condenser, Diodes and other types of components. Motherboard is designed and engineered by very high level of sophosticated electronic engineers and manufactured in ultra modern factories. Motherboard is actually a patented product of a company like Microsoft. It's a research based area and constant upgrade and development take effect. This blog is aimed at giving the viewer some idea of a 'motherboard' and cannot make the viewer 'a specialist in motherboard'. Therefore, note a few facts about a 'motherboard' :-
1) A 'motherboard' usually cannot be repaired by technicians like a transistor radio,
CD player or a LCD TV. When a 'motherboard' develops a snag the technicians
usually advise for a replacement although some minor repairings like fixing a lose
soldering/slot or replacing a transistor may be done in some cases.
2) If you never know anything about a CPU never try to open it and call a technician
in case a problem.
3) It must be remembered if the computer is within a warranty period only authorised
technicians of the company should open it, otherwise you lose the warranty.
4) RAM is not soldered to the motherboard and are fixed on slots and may be replaced
and upgraded easily. If you increase the RAM say from 1GB to 2GB the speed of
computer also increases.
5) Always Secure your costly computer with a proper 'earthing'.
6) When it rains followed by lightning and flashes immediately switch off your computer
and disconnect it from electricity. There are a lot of people who had their motherboard
burnt during rains lightning.
