Preventive Maintenance?

Many of us purchase a computer, power it up and forget about maintaining it.

Performing periodic preventive maintenance on you computer will make it last longer and perform better.

Example of these tasks includes, external hardware clean up, internal disk clean up, defragmentation and security updates.


In this section, we guide you through some important maintenance tasks.


Why Preventive Maintenance ?

  • Proper maintenance can prevent many computer problems. A regular or schedule maintenance help you save time, money, productivity and secures data from exposure to hackers and viruses from internet uses.


How to do it?

  • Keep It Clean : Majority hardware related problems are from corrosive, magnetism, heat and dust. Make sure your monitor and computer are adequately vented and not clogged or block by dust. A small hand vacuum is great for cleaning dust. Always keep your computer clean to prevent excessive heat buildup that can cause damage to your computer.

  • Consistent Power : Inadequate power can harm your data and your operating system. Plug your computer to a surge protector or UPS(Uninterrupted Power Supply) to ensure a steady stream of power during blackouts.

  • Anti Virus : If you are not secure with anti virus protection, you may become the victim of identity theft while surfing internet or encounter operating systems damage. Having running an anti virus protection only might not be sufficient, you must also make sure to preset the program to install latest virus definition updates consistently and schedule periodic systems scan.

  • Delete Temporary Files : Temporary files are created on your PC when you browse internet, install programs and even by the operating system itself. Deleting temporary files from your computer can smooth and speed up your PC.

  • Defragmentation : Defragmentation is a process that reduces the amount of fragmentation in file systems. It does this by rearranging the fragments and restoring them into fewer fragments or into the whole file. Some software or application problem arises from fragmentation and also by virus. Periodically defragmentation can reduces data access time and allows storage to be used more efficiently.

  • Windows Updates : if you are using Windows, preset your PC to download and install “Windows Updates” automatically. Windows updates include patches for bugs and security related issues. These patches can reduce many unknown computer problems.

The purpose of maintenance is to monitor the health of your computer and keep it in shape and long lasting. Without a proper maintenance, the productivity of a computer can greatly reduce by 30-45 percent.
