Newbie ask for Help

I am just starting out with PC Repair studies and would really welcome help with things I need to work on computers.



What books do I NEED on my desk(dictionary and the like)? Where is the best place to get kits, tools etc.? Do I really need an Ocilloscope? What is the best diagnostic software? You get the idea any help would really be helpful!



Thanks


Look into CompTia and A-Plus certification material.

When I started repairing PCs my Bible was "Upgrading and Repairing PCs" - not sure which is the leatest edition. I've managed without an Oscilloscope so far, baisic tools in my toolbox are: a screwdriver, pair of twezzers, small box for holding all the little screws, wire strips & snips, multimeter Hope this helps

With the new Dells you don't even need that.
