Operational Procedure: how to operate a computer

Step 1. Prior to powering up the computer system, make sure that the power cord is firmly
connected to the back panel of the CPU and is plugged into the wall socket.
Step 2 .Check if the video cable is firmly screwed to the port of the video card with the other
end connected to the back panel of the monitor.
Step 3. Make sure that both the keyboard and mouse pointing device are securely plugged to
the back panel. Also, check if they are connected to the correct port by checking on
the markings. Steps 1 to 3 are essentially easy to do because aside from the mouse
and keyboard devices, other components can only be plugged into their proper ports
preventing the novice user from interchanging them.
Step 4. When all connections are secure, start up the machine by pressing the power button
normally located in the front panel of the CPU.
Step 5. Depending on the configuration of the machine, a username and password may be
requested; otherwise, the Operating System may be loaded directly to display the
desktop to the user.
Step 6. Other basic operations that can be done include adjusting monitor settings in Step 8.
Installation and launching of software is outlined in Step 10. Navigation of the file
system is detailed from Step 15.
Step 7. The proper way to shut down or turn off the computer system is by clicking on the
'Start' button and choosing the 'Turn Off Computer' option. This will display the
options to 'Standby', 'Restart', or 'Turn Off' the machine.
Step 8. To adjust the monitor settings, right click on any blank portion of the desktop and
select the 'Properties' option from the context menu.
Step 9. On the 'Display Properties' window, select the 'Settings' tab to adjust the resolution of
the screen. The 'Themes' tab will allow the loading of pre-designed Windows themes.
The 'Desktop' tab provides the way for changing the color of the desktop as well as
the displayed wallpaper. The 'Appearance' tab provides the various options of
changing the behavior of the windows, icons, and other elements of the platform,
while the 'Screen Saver' tab shows the option to allow the monitor to go on standby
or display animation.
Step 10. To extend the functionality of any computer system, software is normally installed
into the local hard drive. A software installer may be through some media like a CD
or DVD or from being downloaded from the Internet.
Step 11. For CD or DVD installers, insert the installation disk in the CD or DVD drive of the
machine. This will be automatically read and launched by the Operating System.
Step 12. When the installation process is initiated, a new window will normally be displayed to
the user. Majority of newer installers provide either a default or an advanced
installation procedure. In most cases, simply click on the default process to allow the
installer to complete the entire process with minimum user intervention.
Step 13. Upon completion of the installation process, a user may be prompted to reboot the
machine. Follow the guide in Step 7 to accomplish this task.

Step 14. To launch the software, simply click on the 'Start' Menu, choose 'All Programs' and
select from the menu the program intended to be run. An alternative to this process is
to check if a shortcut link is created on the Desktop. Clicking this icon will also
launch the associated program.
