What cables are connected to the sound card on a computer?
I installed my own sound card, and no cables are connected to it. It just sits in a slot on the motherboard.
Is the slave or master that connected to motherboard?
Both are connected to the Motherboard. Masters are designated as such, as those that may have your Windows installed or what your computer is running off, while slaves are being ''used'' or "being" run off (to the best of my knowledge).
Where would you place components of a computer when trying to repair a computer?
It depends which component you are trying to replace, but almost all of the components are installed upon the motherboard, the CPU often below the heatsink (fan); the ram is in sticks and the psu is at the back, off the motherboard.
What is the purpose of the raised screw holes or standoff installed between the motherboard and the case?
The standoffs create a space between the case and the motherboard, so preventing shorting of components. The space also aids cooling air flow through the space.

Why do you install RAM and CPU before installing the motherboard into the case?
You don't have to do this, but it is generally easier to manipulate the motherboard and components before you put it inside the case, which due to limited space can make it rather awkward. On the other side, if a motherboard is installed prior to components, it will have a lot more support from its holding brackets etc. This can be very important for installations that may put pressure/bend the motherboard body. A good example of this, as pointed out by ID1198720506 are components which use latch/snap mechanisms to lock on to the motherboard.
What do you call a device that is not installed directly on the motherboard?

Does the motherboard determine what hard drive can be installed?
Yes, the motherboard does determine what hard drive can be installed. A computer is made for the hard drive to be compatible with whatever mother board is installed.
What is difference between upgrade and custom installation?
Sometimes when you begin to install a program, you will be asked if you want a "typical" or a "custom" installation. If you click on typical, the program will be installed with the components and features that the manufacturer has chosen. This may include separate additional features or programs that you may not be aware are being installed. If you choose a "custom" installation, you may pick which features and sub-features are installed. However, each installation is different and the "custom" choice may offer you options that you do not understand. If you don't understand the various program components that you are being offered, then you can usually just click on the cancel button and install the program with the "typical" features.
