Fix it yourself; The world of troubleshooting.
Computers have become part of our lives today, aiding the work we do for a living and providing entertainment. And being a machine, lots of things can go wrong when using it to serve these purposes thus putting us in an uncomfortable situation. Many of the problems that arise though are common issues that are faced with each computer irrespective of the brand or modification and we shall not stop seeing them as long as we keep using the computers.
These computer problems most times find us in the middle of something for example an app your using to enter data freezing suddenly. And out of frustration we call the computer guy to fix the damn issue at some costs. And since the computer guy is also earning a living from you, he doesn't open up to you on the real cause of this problem. This way you find yourself in a position where you always need he's services which are expenses on your side.
A variety of these problems only take to know the root cause to find the solution. And it's here that we get to know the steps required to diagnose the computer whether in hardware or software.
A hardware related issue will in most cases require checking the cable connections all the way from the power source, and a software related issue inmost cases requires restarting the program your using or restarting the whole computer. I will clarify many of these common PC problems and their solutions in my next posts.
Taking on computer tasks by yourself will save you the time and money it could take to have a technician come all the way to fix your computer. And surprisingly you'll get to realise how simple most of the tasks are to overcome. A technician should come in when the problem gets too hard to work on. But otherwise save your hard earned money for better things like investing in steem power, crypto or something that brings you happiness.

It would be quite useful, most people who live connected to a computer, so to speak, do not know much about what kind of failures we can find, making our work or what we do is delayed by it. A knowledge about what the hardware or software would be would be great.
