Computer Repair Service Question?

I am currently 19 years old, and I will be doing online courses for PC Repair training from a very good institute, I was wondering though, is it possible to do an off-site only/remote assistance PC Repair business? The reason I’m asking is because about 2 or 3 years ago me and my mother decided it was not safe enough for me to get my drivers license (I had Amblyopia from being born prematurely at 25 weeks, which was corrected, but I still have a loss of vision in my right eye) So therefore I have no peripheral vision. So I was just wondering if it seemed like a good idea, I was even considering just running out of my apartment to people within a 20 mile radius.

NO. It’s barely possible to run such a business when you are going on site. You can pay hundreds for a yellow page ad, get a bunch of people to call you, and talk to them all day …. but good luck getting any of them to pay a red cent for it.

Computer Power Supply?

I am trying my first PC build. I bought a power supply that arrived today. My motherboard and most everything else arrives tomorrow. I heard some people receive dead power supplies. I wanted to test the power supply to see if it works BEFORE putting everything else together.

My question is, if I plug the power supply into the wall outlet and nothing else (no motherboard connections, etc) should the fan on the power supply turn on to indicate the power supply is working? If not, is there any other way to tell before hooking it up to the motherboard, HDD’s, etc.?

Thanks.

There is no way to test proper operation of a power supply without connecting it to a functioning PC.

Advice: don’t create barriers for yourself. Just build the thing and hook up the power. You will just give yourself pointless headaches approaching it any other way.

SONY UX280P PROCESSOR/CPU QUESTION UPGRADE HELP.?

I just recieved a sony ux280p and i would like to put a dual core intel u7700 processor(I checked everything out and it is compatible). My only problem is the processor that comes with it is soldered on. So how can I unsolder it and re-solder my new one? If you can find a guide/pictures or anything that would be great. Thanks

Which is better, Liquid CPU cooling or Air cooling?

I’ve been doing a bit of research, and I can’t seem to find out if Liquid CPU cooling is actually better at cooling the machine than Air cooling.

The main advantage the seems to be batted around is that it’s quieter than fans. With the disadvantages being cost and the risk of leaks.

So, if I want to keep a PC cool, which will actually do it better?

Liquid systems will keep the system more cool. Think of it this way, why is a car cooled by water and not just air. The system uses a special liquid (not water), so if it spills onto a component, it wont do any harm.
