Q1 State three physical checks that should be made when
unpacking equipment.
Answer:
First physical checks that should be made when unpacking equipment are checked for
packaging damage. We need to make sure that there is no damage to the goods, because some
couriers can mishandle the goods during transportation, which can cause serious damage to
the goods. Causing mishandling during transportation can be poor packing practice. For
safety's sake, fragile items must be label. In addition, we have to check the security seals. If
the seal is broken, that means having somebody open it before you have to properly check the
content for missing items. After checking the security seals, if there is any problem, please
consult the relevant department. Besides, after we receive the goods, we need to check any
other damage indicating equipment. If there is any damage on the equipment, the

manufacturer should be responsible for products condition before packaging, because the
packaging does not protect the goods well. We need to check the damaged product for the
evidence, bring your evidence, lodge a complaint and ask for exchange.

Q2 State five common problems that could arise from


incorrect packaging and handling.

Answer:
five common problems that could arise from incorrect packaging and handling first point is
visible damage. This problem can arise normally because of improper handling during
shipping. For this case, if already stranch, do not turn on, because it will say you wrong by
manufacture and do not use first, ask the manufacture to exchange new one to us. In
additional, delay in completion of installation. They are delayed because of the hardware
problem, which are usually handling or packaged and components return will be takes time to
arrive. Some employee finished the project too late can became delay installation.
Furthermore, when customer receive defective product, customers will be equally
dissatisfied, so customer will give comments or bad complaint to the seller. Therefore, there
is a problem with the company image. It can degrade the reputation of the company. In
addition, we must ensure that our goods are in good condition, because customer is very
important for the company. Lastly, increased support costs also could arise from incorrect
packaging and handling. Repackaging returned products requires packaging fees before
shipment. Shipping also needs costs and sometimes the courier has shipping problems that
can arise from the delay problem. In addition, bad products or cheap products can also
increase the support cost. In short, we need to ensure that the packaging and handling of
goods are safe, because only small things will increase the costs and get negative comments
from the customer.

Q3. Explain two faults that may occur when installing and configuring hardware.
Answer:
The most common problems when installing software are caused by the software not
matching the computer's hardware device and by the software's installation file being
corrupted. Usually the reason for software installation failure is that the software
installation file or the software startup software is corrupted, the solution to this
problem is to remove the software and reinstall it. In addition, one of the reasons for
software installation failure may be that the software does not match the computer
hardware, which may be due to a conflict between the version of the software and the
computer hardware. The solution to this problem is to find the right version of
software to download.

Q4. Explain the difference between the terms benchmark and actual performance.
Answer:
The difference between terminology benchmarking and actual performance is that
terminology benchmarking is used for testing and reference purposes, whereas actual
performance is more widely used. The term benchmark is generally used to test the
data and to refer to the data obtained after the test, and is rarely used in practical
situations. Actual performance is given more emphasis than terminology benchmarks
because actual performance will be applied to actual use.
