M3 evaluate the performance of a computer system. [IE4]



Introduction

This report aims to evaluate and explain the changes made to Mr Ali’s computer that were implemented to his computer system to allow more functionality and better performance, these will aid him in operating his computer system and help to combat him being impaired by his disabilities whilst using his computer system.

Improvements

We upgraded the RAM in his system, making this change will boost the performance of the computer system and allow it to run smoother with less lag. This will aid Mr Ali by allowing him to easily and effectively use programs on his computer system without performance issues and interruptions. Increasing the RAM has also allowed Mr Ali to run multiple high performance programs simultaneously, allowing him to multitask programs and juggles tasks.

Installing a CD/DVD drive into Mr Ali’s computer system improves the functionality of the computer system by increasing the amount of actions that Mr Ali can now do with his computer system. With the CD/DVD drive installed Mr Ali can import music, videos, and other media from CDs and DVDs. Much like he can import media, he can also export media onto CDs and DVDs.

Antivirus Software was also installed onto Mr Ali’s computer to protect him and the computer system against malicious software and attacks.
The desktop was configured to help Mr Ali to use his computer system better which will help to aid his visual impairments; we increased the size and font of the desktop icons so that he could view them better. We also switched the mouse buttons around to aid him as he is left handed. We changed the desktop background and screensaver to make it more visually appeasing and suit his tastes better.
