Mounting and dismounting of memory modules

By increasing the amount of memory you will inevitably have to dismantle the already installed as modules (at least in order to clarify their type) and install new ones.So nice to know how to do it properly without risking anything break.

Let’s start with SIMM.The module is in slot vertically.On the one hand it holds a hard plastic fasteners, and the other – flexible metal antennae latch.Remove the module as follows: take your metal antennae latch fingers (tweezers, screwdriver), and then just tilt the module itself.Special efforts should not apply because the design rather fragile.

Disassembly should only be undertaken in a row, with the most recent to the very first module.Remove the module in the middle of the impossible – preventing neighbors.Installation of the module SIMM in reverse order.Pre-check the position of the module on the side cutouts, “examples” in the socket, so do not try to insert it correctly.Install the module into the slot obliquely, dilute metal antennae latch, then gently pushing in the direction of connector, turn the module into a vertical position.

Protrusions in the plastic limiter must be logged in round holes on the sides of the module, and metal whiskers – latched, and fixing the module.Apply excessive force is not necessary: ​​if a module does not get in its place, see if you contorted it, check that it put in the right direction.

SIMM modules installation can only be done in a row – from first to last, or interfere with adjacent modules.DIMM modules are removed and installed much easier.To disassemble the module is sufficient to dissolve in the plastic holders of slots on the sides – the module itself will be released from the socket.

Installation of DIMM and not cause any difficulties: dissolve the plastic holders on the sides of the connector, “try on” module to the connector (keyed-neck), set in the socket and press down lightly on top.The module should enter into the slot, and plastic holders to fix it.

Operating systems.History of Windows

Operating systems.History of Windows

What is the computer – metal body, stuffed with all sorts of details, diagrams and wiring.Computer for the office, home, for gaming.But no matter how modern and powerful was not the computer, without installing an operating system in it, he just can not work.
Operating System – is a unified software platform that enables communication and interaction between different programs with a computer “hardware” and how programs interact with each other, the interaction of user and computer.
Among the variety of operating systems, of course, users choose their system of these three: Windows, Mac OS and Linux .
I plan to write a series of reviews and a short excursion into the history of each of these systems.I will begin, as usual with Windows , which, despite all its flaws and vulnerabilities still remain, and probably for a long time will remain the recognized standard of operating systems .
I will not hide the fact that in creating an article helped me a lot of material “The newest computer encyclopedia” my favorite “computer” author Vitali Leontiev .
Here, let me bring in the epigraph to one chapter of the “Encyclopedia” Vitali Leontiev on the history of Windows .
“… One example of a cumbersome and, in their opinion, useless add-in is an integrated system of Windows by Microsoft.This system is almost 1 MB of disk space and is designed for primary use in conjunction with a device such as “mouse” …

… Thus, the reader has learned that among the suspensions of the DOS can be quite useless systems that only look beautiful, but actually takes time user memory on disks and computer memory.Deceptive beauty of these systems, however, strongly affects the inexperienced users who have not had the practice of a car.The inertia of thinking is so strong that the authors have observed that people who began working with such a suspension, then with difficulty forcing myself to learn DOS commands.I would like to warn readers of this error … ”
From the book: “Personal computers in engineering practice”
M. Radio and communication, 1989.
Now, back in 2011 and already look here Okin history’s most famous operating system.
History of Windows started in the early eighties of the last century.The first operating system with Microsoft – DOS ( Disk Operating System ) was developed for computer company IBM . MS DOS did not have a GUI, the user worked with the system by introducing a special command from the command line and pressing Enter .To work with files used a file manager .
In the GUI DOS was dressed only in 1985 year (note that in 1983 , the Apple has released a computer that has been used graphical operating system and mouse).The new system called Windows 1.1 ( Windows , it will be remembered in the translation from English – the window ).The first Windows was very slow and not so popular.

Windows 1.01
Then there was Windows 2.0 , slightly Revamped, but this is slow.

Windows 2.0
The real breakthrough was the emergence in 1990 , the version of Windows 3.0 .Greater emphasis here was on the chart – this version was already possible to adjust for different screen resolution.But this version was unstable in operation.

Windows 3.0
In the 1992-1993 version saw the light of Windows 3.1 and 3.11, which were corrected certain errors of previous versions and adds new features such as support of the local network and network management tools.

Windows 3.11
A complete operating system called Windows 95 was released respectively in 1995 year.This system had many drawbacks, chief among them – high instability at work and poor multitasking.

Windows 95
Subsequent versions – Windows 98 and Windows Me ( Millenium Edition ) – though they were improved, but the main drawbacks were not spared. Windows ME was the last version in the line of Windows 95 ninety eighths .

Windows 98

Windows ME
Almost simultaneously with work on Windows 95 / 98 , Microsoft has been working on a new line of operating systems built on a completely new kernel (in all previous versions of the kernel served DOS ) Windows NT ( NT – New Technology – New Technology).The emphasis here was placed on the stability and reliability, the entertainment area in the new system was given virtually no space.Therefore, Windows NT has spread only in the offices.

Windows NT Workstation 3.51
Later, in the same line out Windows 2000 , which not only inherits all the advantages of Windows NT , but also gained a new – a real multi-tasking, easy interface, multimedia, etc.However, because a lot of time requirements and complexity of some of the settings Windows 2000 did not become popular and has spread mainly in the professional field.

Windows 2000 Pro
So, both of Windows – for home users and professionals – have evolved in parallel to the end of the twentieth century.At the dawn of the new millennium in light of a new operating system, combining all the advantages of its predecessors – Windows XP .
