Below are some common hardware and systems issues to look out for:
Hardware Issues
Common hardware problems are caused by:
- Not having enough RAM or CPU
- Results in a slow machine
- Hard disk failure
- Results in the machine crashing and or showing the blue screen of death. When a hard drive is starting to fail, it no longer saves or it causes the disk to make lots of noises.
- Network card issues
- Results in being unable to connect to any network.
- Graphics card failure or motherboard issue
- Results in a device that keeps restarting because of a graphics card failure or because of overheating.
Device Driver Issues
Device drivers are used to communicate between hardware components, if a driver is out of date, becomes corrupted, or even the wrong driver is used for the system, these issues can be caused:
- Peripherals not recognized or do not work as expected
- Full features / functionality are not available
- Slow / Reduced performance or blue-screen stop errors
- Computer keeps restarting due to graphics card, motherboard, or network driver issues

You can use the Device Manager tool via the Control Panel to see and manage the hardware that is connected to your computer. In the list, check for exclamation marks, question marks, and red crosses for clues to what's wrong.
