Module 4: MAINTAINING
COMPUTER EQUIPMENT AND
SYSTEMS
Before we proceed on our
lesson for today, let’s have
an activity…
Activity 1: SHARE IT!
Instructions: Give what are
being asked. Write your answer
on your EPAS notebook.
1. Have you experience
virus related problem on
your mobile/computer
system?
2. How do viruses affect your
mobile/computer system?
Share your ideas based on
your personal experience.
Let’s proceed with our
lesson for today…

Lesson 1: Maintaining
Computer Equipment And
Systems
Procedures on how to
maintain computer system
and equipment.
Maintenance Program - is a comprehensive
list of maintenance and its incidents. This
undertaken, manpower needed, maintenance
methods to be used, all the materials and
supplies needed for the maintenance and cost
involved in the maintenance.

Maintenance Schedule - is a list
allocating specific maintenance of an
area. Equipment and tools to a specific
period. The maintenance schedule is
just a part of the maintenance program.

Quality management - is a method for
ensuring that all the activities
necessary to design, develop and
implement a product or service are
effective with respect to the system and
its performance.
The following diagram is the
Shewhart cycle (PDCA) for
quality improvements. Made
popular by Dr. Deming.
The Quality Management Cycle

The philosophy is to keep improving
the quality of an organization. It is defined by
the four key steps:
 Plan: Design and revised business
process components to improve results.
 Do: Implement the plan and measure its
performance.
 Check: Assess the measurements and
report the results to decisions makers.
 Act: Decides on changes needed to

1. Create an equipment maintenance schedule.
In order to perform the maintenance of your
computer efficiently, a maintenance schedule is
made to guide the personnel in the proper
maintenance procedure. This will help them
remember the maintenance task that needs to be
done in order to improve the functionality of the
computer system and networks.
2. Create a maintenance checklist.
To determine if the maintenance program is
implemented according to what is planned, an assessment
must be done. The result of the assessment will then be
recorded and recorded to the proper authorities for the
immediate action.
The assessment is through regular inspections which
assure that the maintenance activities are done on the date
and time it was planned and that the performance levels
adhered to the defined standard.
Perform the computer maintenance task
regularly.
Daily Backup
 Try to back up your data at least once
per day – no one wants to lose
projects you spent hours, if not days
working on.
 Run a malware scan to stay on top of
virus prevention. If you have any real-
time prevention tools even then some
viruses may slip by. Depending on how
frequently you use the computer you
can get away with doing this once a
week; more frequent computer users
should do this daily.
 Never shut down by using the power
button – always use the option from the
start menu! Never leave your computer
on overnight either to save electricity
and to prevent wear-and-tear.

 Check for updates every day so you don’t
miss any crucial upgrades, nor will you have
to spend hours installing dozens at a time if
you procrastinate (postpone/delay) it.
 If you use your computer for many hours at a
time during the day, then plan to restart it at
least once. This way, temporary files won’t
build up and slow down use over time.

Monthly Backup
 Use the defragmentation tool to keep
your PC running fast and efficiently.
This tool puts files back together that
are split apart to different folders in
your PC over time.

 Scan your hard drive for errors to
make sure there are no physical
problems occurring. This doesn't
check for viruses or malware, but
more so physical and logical
problems.
Clean out your disk drive every
few weeks. Similar to
defragmentation, these are
small pieces of trash that
quietly accumulate over time.

 Physically clean your computer by
using compressed air to blow out
dust and small pieces of dirt. These
small particles build up over time
and can lead to computers
physically overheating and other
mechanical problems.
Yearly Backup
 Backup your hard drive as an image,
so if your PC ever crashes you won't
have to reinstall from scratch. This
should be done twice a year, just to be
safe.

As Needed
 Uninstall programs that you don't use
anymore to free up space.
 Practice safe browsing by not
downloading files from or spending time
on sites you aren't familiar with or may be
untrustworthy since this is how people
generally get malware.
 Change passwords frequently as a
general preventative measure
against hackers.

We are done in our
discussion for this session.
So, let’s continue and do
the next activity…
Developing Mastery
Activity 2: Self-Assessment
Instructions: Check the column that
determines how often you practice the
following statements say. Do this
objectively as possible. Use your own
performance in doing this activity.
Developing Mastery
Now, you already know and
master the topics that we have
discussed today. Let’s proceed
with another activity…
Finding practical application of Concepts and Skills in daily living.
Activity 3: Agree-Disagree
Instructions: Read the statements
below. React to each statement by
writing the word AGREE or DISAGREE.
Write your answers on your EPAS
notebook.
1. _____________ Check the
condition of connected input and
output devices.
2. _____________ Check your
programs – clean up unused
programs.
3. _____________ Update anti-
virus and spy ware software.
4. _____________ Make a full
diagnostic check on hardware
