Support Specialists load software into microcomputer memory, test systems, and diagnose hardware and software problems. In addition, they may make minor repairs to computer systems - usually by replacing components or programs - and keep records of service and repairs. They are also asked to help evaluate microcomputer hardware and software needs, purchases, and modifications.
