Computer Care Tips

Perhaps this paper, I aimed for those who still use a computer layman, like me .. hehehe. Here are tips on caring for your computer so durable that I can from various sources:
1. Defrag your hard drive regularly.
Defrag function is to organize and sort your files by type of hard drive files / data in such a way
that will facilitate the read / write so that the workload will be lighter which can eventually extend the life of the hard disk.
How to click the Start menu> Programs> Accessories> System Tools> Disk Defragmenter.
When running this function there can be no other programs running including screen because it would disrupt
This defrag function

2. Activate screensaver
In addition to the aesthetic nature, screensavers have another function which is important. CRT television also use phosphorus
to display images. If the monitor displays the same image for a while then there phosphorous
lit continuously. This can lead to problematic monitor the picture becomes dim / less clear. Other
as if your monitor is LCD, the LED which is equipped with energy saving, the screensaver is not too
lagi.Cara + needed to activate the screensaver can be done in many ways, one click Start> Control
Panel> Display> click the screensaver tab, then select your liking

3. Adequate ventilation
Place the monitor and the CPU in such a way that the ventilation air to and from the monitor / CPU quite smoothly.
Who lack good ventilation will cause excessive heat so that the components / electronic circuit in it
will become hot quickly so it can shorten component life tsb. Therefore, try to distance between
monitor / CPU with wall / wall of at least 30 cm. If I need to install a fan in the room.

4. Use UPS or stavolt.
Use a UPS for power in anticipation of a sudden death which can result in damage to the hard drive. If
had no UPS, use Stavolt to anticipate the ups and downs of electric voltage.

5. Close / close the program which is useless
Each program which is loaded or run requires memory (RAM) so that more programs which
who run more memory consumed. This is in addition can cause the computer to run slow (slow) also
workloads become heavier which can ultimately shorten the life of the component / compute.

6. Install anti-virus program and update regularly To be able to recognize new virus/trojan2 should update
antivirus program regularly. Virus already spreading in the computer can make you re-install
computer. This is in addition to costs will also cause your hard drive will be more easily damaged than
if not frequently re-installed

7. Clean the Recycle Bin on a regular basis
Actually the files / folders that we deleted from the hard drive does not disappear because it will be accommodated first in the Recycle Bin is
with the intention for a moment if you still need to return again. Recycle Bin reply
many will also take up space which can cause the hard disk drive so slow reading.
How to run Windows Explorer> click on the Recycle Bin> click File> click Empty Recyle Bin
Or you can run the Disk Cleanup function, follow these steps Click Start> Programs> Accessories> System Tools> Disk
Cleanup> and then select the drive which will be cleaned> after that Tick option if you need to check the Recycle Bin also
the other (such as temporary files, temporary internet files), after click OK.
Tip: to delete the file that we will not be accommodated first in the Recycle Bin, press the key "shift" before
delete.

8. Do not put Speacker Active, UPS or stavolt too close to the monitor.
Because magnetic fields exist on speacker will affect the color of the monitor into the monitor that is not
average, or rocking pinto.

9. Uninstall or remove programs which are not useful
Which is too much hard drive space consumed will slow down the read / write drive so that the workload will be more severe so that the disk will be easily damaged.

10. Clean the motherboard and other peripherals from the dust on a regular basis
At least six months this should be done. Open the casing first and then clean the motherboard
and other peripherals (RAM, Video Card, Modem, Sound Card, CDR / CDRW / DVRW, TV tuner) with a soft brush. In
close when the computer does not use a computer (monitor, CPU, keyboard / mouse) with a cover so that dust does not
easy entry into the computer.

11. Connect the ground wires. If the casing nyetrum, take a cable with a length as needed, the tip of one connected
with body CPU (on casing) while the other end planted in the soil. This will be to neutralize the current
electricity so it can make more durable electronic components
