How to identify issues if related to Software or Hardware?

The operating system is a bunch of files and if you are facing issues with your PC there could be many reasons. It can be hardware failure or software issues though finding the exact cause for system failure is a little tricky here.

We will go with the examples as that will be easy for you to understand the issue and the troubleshooting part as well. Let us assume your computer is not booting anymore. The first thing we will do is check the POST (Power on Self-Test). Once you switch on the machine check if you are getting any beep. A beep sound can be of different types like a single beep, two beeps, three beeps, and so on. Each beep is having a different reason. If you get any beep its hardware failure. However, if you are getting a blue screen of death it is mostly related to software.

If the issue is hardware-related you need to replace the hardware or change the IRQ. If the issue is related to OS, you must either reinstall the operating system or you must remove the latest installed application from the system.

Few common components can fail the system boot such as Hard disk, CPU, Ram, Graphics card, Fans, motherboard, Power supply, and some more.
