    The 10 essential components of a computer are: the mouse, hard disk drive, compact disk drive, CPU, BIOS, memory, monitor, system case, power supply, and keyboard. The mouse is used for on-screen selection, the hard disk drive stores data, the compact disk drive reads CDs/DVDs, the CPU performs computations, the BIOS handles booting, memory is used for tasks, the monitor displays visuals, the system case houses parts, the power supply converts power, and the keyboard is used for text input.

    10 COMPONENTS OF COMPUTER IN THE PUZZLE

    1. MOUSE- a pointing device used to make on screen selection.

    2. HARD DISK DRIVE- a hard disk drive (HDD), hard


    disk, hard drive or fixed disk [b] is a data storage device that uses
    magnetic storage to store and retrieve digital information using one
    or more rigid rapidly rotatingdisks (platters) coated with magnetic
    material.

    3. COMPACT DISK DRIVE- reads CD/DVD discs.

    4. CPU- the central processing unit (CPU) of a computer is a piece of


    hardware that carries out the instructions of a computer program. It performs
    the basic arithmetical, logical, and input/output operations of a computer
    system. ... The CPU is sometimes also referred to as the
    centralprocessor unit, or processor for short.

    5. BIO- a computer's Basic Input Output System and Complementary


    Metal-Oxide Semiconductor together handle a rudimentary and essential
    process: they set up the computer and boot the operating system.
    The BIOS's primary function is to handle the system setup process
    including driver loading and operating system booting.
    6. MEMORY- the memory plays a role in all our activities. ... It is essential
    in creating and developing our personality, it is a direct witness of our own
    past (episodic memory), and also of history and common knowledge
    (semantic memory). The memory is therefore one of the most essential
    cognitive functions in a person's life.

    7. MONITOR- the main function of a computer monitor is to display video


    and graphical information generated by the computers graphics adapter,
    allowing the user to interact with the computer. It is categorized as an output
    device.

    8. SYSTEM CASE- the system case, sometimes called


    the chassis or enclosure, is the metal and plastic box that houses the main
    components of the computer. Most people don't consider it a very important
    part of the computer (perhaps in the same way they wouldn't consider
    their own skin a very important body organ). While the case isn't as critical
    to the system as some other computer components (like the processor or
    hard disk), it has several important roles to play in the functioning of a
    properly-designed and well-built computer.

    9. POWER SUPPLY- a power supply unit (or PSU) converts mains AC to


    low-voltage regulated DC power for the internal components of a computer.
    Modern personal computers universally use switched-mode power supplies.

    10.KEYBOARD- a computer keyboard is an input device used to enter


    characters and functions into the computer system by pressing buttons, or
    keys. It is the primary device used to enter text. A keyboard typically
    contains keys for individual letters, numbers and special characters, as well
    as keys for specific functions.
