Model Answer

Introduction

• In this contemporary epoch, people thrive primarily on computers for entertainment as well as work.
• Being a student I do the bulk of my work on my computer.
• Therefore, when it stops working the work halts.
• Although my computer works fine, recently It stopped working all of a sudden.

When and where was it?

• Last month I was working on a PowerPoint presentation at my home.
• When I was about to complete my task, the computer stopped working.

Why did it stop working?

• Finding the exact fault was an uphill task for me.
• So I decided to take it to the technician.
• But due to the corona pandemic, there was a lockdown in my city.
• And due to that going out of the home was not a feasible option.
• Finally, I contacted one of my friends, who is a computer engineer, over the phone.
• He told me to do few checks.
• After a few minutes, he deciphered that the problem was with the Random Access Memory of my computer.
• Since RAM is an integral part of a computer, in case it malfunctions, the computer stops working.

How did you solve this issue?

• Luckily I had a spare RAM at my home, but replacing the RAM was a daunting task.
• Since the deadline to submit the presentation was approaching, I had no option but to fix the computer myself.
• After watching a few videos on Youtube, I came to know the exact procedure to change it.
• After putting in strenuous efforts for two hours, I managed to replace the RAM.
• And my computer started working.
• I had completed the presentation and submitted it.
• Finally, I had a sigh of relief.
