* Troubleshooting steps to take in the case of a suspected hard disk failure

* How to identify and troubleshoot memory issues, such as insufficient and/or faulty RAM.

There are also various other topics covered such as DHCP and simultaneous connections as well as some guidance on where to find information on issues that are hard to troubleshoot, such as internal knowledgebases and colleagues. Whilst external resources can be useful for troubleshooting, it is important to only use trusted resources, i.e. ones known to other technicians within your organisation.
