PC Maintenance
Chapter 1: Heat is the enemy.
Computers, like all electronic devices give off heat. But for computers heat can cause them to fail. That’s why it’s important to keep your case clean. Most people rarely or never clean their cases. I remember once during my internship, I was fixing one of the employees’ computers and I opened the case. What I saw shocked and disgusted me. There was a 1 inch layer of dust on everything. I couldn’t believe it.
At the minimum you should clean your computer every 3 to 6 months or a year at the most if you can’t do it earlier. My next blog post will include details on how to do this.
P.S. Do not try cleaning your computer yet, as you can damage it. Wait for my next blog entry.
