Maintenance of computer equipment
There are two types of maintenance that can be applied to a computer.
Preventive maintenance. It is applied to a PC to avoid future errors and
technical problems, such as: search for and remove viruses from the hard drive,
find and correct logical and physical errors on the disk, defragment the disk,
clean the motherboard and other cards to avoid failures techniques by dust,
others.
Corrective
maintenance. It is one that is oriented to the diagnosis and repair of the
equipment when a technical problem arises.
When we
perform maintenance to a computer the first thing we need to determine is the
time of use and technological delay of the computer, since service on very old
equipment is more expensive because of the difficult ness of obtaining the
spare parts.
Then evaluate the physical conditions in which the computer is located.
An old or modern computer cannot be installed in very closed places that does
not allow you to dissipate the heat generated on the motherboard (despite
having fans inside).
As for electricity, there are users who have several air conditioners
and a series of electrical equipment that consumes a lot of energy at the time
of boot, it is there just how the hard drive of the computer suffers, because
it is very sensitive to failures of current and every time the fridge turns on,
there is a low amperage in the electrical system of the whole house and
consequently on the PC. We must have voltage stabilizers or UPSs for computers.
We can
start by searching for and removing informational viruses with a good
antivirus, like AVG Antivirus, very powerful, light and free.
Then,
search for and delete temporary files from your computer, because they take up
space and tend to hang up the computer. There are many programs on the web that
can help us perform this task, even Windows has its own hard drive maintenance
program.
If the
installation of the computer Operating System is more than 2 years, it is
advisable to make backups of all important files on our hard drive, since the
system is no longer very stable because of its age and use.
If the
equipment is very dirty inside, it must be uncovered, turning it off
previously, and with a blower remove the dust, then with the help of a brush
clean the most difficult areas of the PC.
