Hardware refers to the tangible elements of your computer. In other words, any object you can touch or feel, as opposed to software, which drives the working of these components. A good thing to do, first of all, would be to get introduced to the way your PC works.
You could also try this page for a more in-depth peek at the insides of your machine. That done, there is a lot of information online that covers all hardware, from the monitor (casually called the screen) to the keyboard and mouse.
Other components include the hard drive, CD-ROM, floppy drive, motherboard and modem.
Apart from these basic elements, you will also need information on accessories that include printers, speakers and microphones.
