My First Computer

MY FIRST COMPUTER

By Khoi Tran

What change my life over the year is learning new thing about computer everyday like learning how to program game virtual program where you can test on program that doesn’t affect your computer. Like when I would like to test a program and I don’t know what would happen to my computer so I test on a virtual computer program instead. Then this summer I build something that people don’t believe what I say. Keep reading you want to know more about it.

I have built my first computer this June 4 2013 the hardest part for this is buying parts that I need like battery, hard drive and etc. I use a few parts from my old desktop window 7. I have spent over the summer 3 or 4 hour a day just to put pieces together and make sure that they are correct spot like the wire some of them are very similar to the other wire so I have to make sure that they are in the correct place. I have spent almost about 3 or 4 hundred dollar on parts. A few of those part are paid by my cousin. He work at a tech place in Kalamazoo. I barely get to see him. He only come home on Saturday and Sunday. He helped me built the computer over this summer weekend. I don’t get to see him much because I have to skateboard over his house each time I go to visit him. I had to go to different store and website to get the parts that I need. Each week I get a new part like a fan or other types of parts.

It was Aug 10 when my whole computer was finish with every parts that I needed. At first off I tested the computer and it didn’t start because there are a few wire that is in the wrong place. Then I have to download driver like the volume Wi-Fi and etc. Which that have took me an hour to get it done. I tested again and it work so then I spend the rest of my summer on the computer starting from Augusts 10. This change my life because at first I didn’t know if I could build a computer at all. But now I know I can. The whole point of this is my old computer was broken down because of too much game ruin the graphic card. I had all my file on the old computer and now it broken. So this is my new one. Let hope this one last for a life time. Rather than being broken down again.
