Ten Tools your will need for your PC
1. A Complete screwdriver set with a tester
This is , of course, the most essential thing of all. Remember that trying to use a single screwdriver in a one -size-fits style may seem to work for many screws, but you'll be wearing down the screw heads and this is entirely avoidable by getting a complete set.
2. A multimeter
This can be help to check for grounding problem checking whether the power supply is working fine, finding out IDE power supply cable aren't working, and so on .
3. Pliers, tweezers ,wire cutter and other such tools.
These are available at any hardware store, 0and are the same as those required for any other kind of mechanical work , Tweezers, for example, are a great help when screw fall into the PC cabinet and you want to get then back out.
4. A Set of screws
This is essential. you may get screws supplied with your mother bored if you'r doing upgrade and so on, but unless you're doing a major upgrade like this, you'll need to purchase a set of screw at you local hardware store, get as many sizes and shape as you can.
5. A hard disk mounting rack
This is useful if u have only a 5.25-inch bay left and you need to put a plug in regular 3.5-inch drive.
6. IDE Cables
These are available at any computer store. you may want long ones or short ones, depending on how you've placed you drives and the placement of the connectors on you motherboard.
7. Cloth, tissue etc.
if this will be the first time you're opening up the box. you'll need do a lot of cleaning. keep cloth and tissues handy to clean up the case, especially contact points
8. A vacuum Cleaner
No, not a 400 W home vac- just one of those small ones you get for laptop keyboards. this is useful to clean up places that are hard to reach with cloth and tissue.
9. An IC inserter and extractor
These will be needed if you're going to work on CPU or do any kind of advanced tinkering with the mother bored. these should be available in some computer stores.
10. Finally, an adjustable wrench
This will come in handy for tough and nuts.
