What types of tools would you need to fix the hardware on your computer?

Answer 1

Main one, your hands and brain along with common sense. Others, anti-static wrist strap, Phillips and flathead screwdrivers, needle nose pliers (in case you drop a small screw somewhere). Very basic hand tools really, but if you don't know what you're doing, don't do it! Now if you're talking electrical system(s) then you'll need a bit more if you're trying to diagnose a possible electrical problem, and this you Can't do...(judging by the question itself)

Answer 2

If a hardware is damaged, you cannot use a tool to fix it. There are programs you can download which will fix system files etc.

A2

To fix hardware you need screw drivers. Mostly cross head(Philips) but some now use a torx head (star).

Most user replaceable parts are only held together with screws.

Answer 3

While you would only usually need a few non-magnetic screwdrivers and a static strap to replace, remove, and add hardware to a computer this question is unanswerable due to the fact that unless you either built the hardware yourself or are versed in electronic engineering you would not be able to actually repair the hardware.

Answer 4

Companies that offer software tools to help fix a computer include Microsoft, Staples, and the PC support website. Computers can be damaged by spyware, malware, and viruses but available software can remove these and help a computer run quickly and efficiently.
