Gateway Compaq Tiny Dell Time Repairs in Blackwater Surrey UK
Over time computers can become really frustrating as they slowly begin to misbehave,
run slowly, crash, or sometimes completely stop working altogether!
It seems inevitable but needn't be..
With regular maintenance you can avoid the frustrations of slow running or unstable
computers which cost so much lost time and stress.
Computers do need regular maintenance, and this maintenance is on two levels;
hardware and software.
Hardware
Regular hardware servicing is quite straightforward and should really be performed
around once per year on hardworking business computers, or more often in environments
which are dustier or where the computer is switched on for extended periods of time
or even continually on. An annual hardware service is generally very simple and
involved the following:
- Memory (RAM) amount, utilization and page-files.
- Hard disk space, errors and fragmentation.
- Physical check of all the internal connections.
- Cleaning and vacuuming inside and out.
- Decongestion and cleaning of internal fans and heat-sinks.
- Dismantling and lubricating any fans that are noisy or running slowly.
- Cleaning laser lenses on CD drives.
- Visual internal inspection to check for obvious problems.
- Safety check on mains cables
Software
Software Maintenance is a more ongoing form of servicing which involves maintaining
the general “health” of the computer. Many things affect the performance or health
of the computer. The following list is the covers the important ones, but is by
no means an exhaustive list:
- Operating system version and service pack level.
- Faulty or unnecessary background software processes.
- Badware - Viruses, Spyware, Adware and Malware.
- Bloatware (Installed applications never used).
- Unused system services.
