In any technological environment, problems are inevitable. In this course, learners will look at detailed approaches to resolving issues by examining the six-step troubleshooting methodology used to resolve problems with computer systems. Begin by considering the impact of corporate policies and procedures before implementing changes. Learn steps for identifying a problem, such as questioning the user and inquiring about environmental and infrastructure changes. Discover how to conduct external or internal research based on symptoms so that you can establish a theory of probable cause, test the theory, and evaluate your test results. Next, you will learn how to establish a plan of action to resolve the problem and implement the solution, verify full system functionality, and implement preventive measures. Review best practices to document findings, actions, and outcomes. Finally, explore systems and troubleshooting techniques when dealing with hardware components, storage devices, displays, and mobile devices. This course will prepare learners for the CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1101) certification.
