5 Computer Maintenance Tips

Gokhiel, Saturday, April 18, 2009

Computer Maintenance

Slow Computer performance, Hard drive Fail, Program Application crash..etc are common users problem. 5 computer maintain tips below is general task that users should do to keep good performance for the computer.

1. Keep Your Computer Clean
Keeping your files and folders tidy will make your computer running smooth every days. It's important to keep as much free disk space as possible, a full HDD will run slow, and it will take longer to do the above processes as there are more files to scan. Virtual Memory requires large amounts of HDD space, if your HDD is full, the space is not available for Virtual Memory.

2. Uninstall Unused Programs.
Many new program release every day sometime we need to install and test the program, if you found that the new program is not good or you rarely run the program do not keep the program in your computer. These programs clutter up your drive and take up valuable space. You might be tempted to delete these programs from your drive, but doing so will cause problems. You must use the uninstall function of Windows for the program to be removed safely and completely.

3. Scandisk and Defrag
When Windows installs programs, it will put the files it needs anywhere that it finds free space, and not directly after the last program installed. As a result, your hard drive has patches of empty space on it that are not big enough to fit a full program, and will result in a drive space error if you attempt to install something new. Scandisk your drive to check for lost file fragments and to fix any errors it finds, then Defrag to pack all of the program files together at the beginning of your drive. This will clear out those empty patches and move all of the free space you've just created to the end of your drive.

4. Back Up
The most important thing you can do as a computer owner is to consistently and reliably back up the data stored on your hard drive. Hardware used to be the most valuable part of a computer but those bits and bytes are now the real investment.

backup any data you cannot afford to lose to at least two separate physical drives. So backup data to external hard drives, Zip disks, CD-RWs etc.
The time to backup is when you create something you can't afford to lose. Don't wait until tomorrow. If you don't regularly backup this information, a serious computer problem could leave you with nothing but a huge feeling of regret

5. Update
Keeping the software on your computer up to date is no longer an optional part of computer ownership. Viruses, worms, junk mail, security breaches, hardware incompatibilities, and software conflicts are all now part of your daily digital life. Updating your computer with the latest patches, fixes, and device drivers really can keep these annoyances at bay. Updates are freely available on the Internet for just about every antivirus program, email client, operating system, and piece of hardware you could possibly own

5 Tips For How To Choose Computer Monitor

Gokhiel, Friday, April 10, 2009

Computer Monitors

Are you looking for a computer monitor? Monitors are your window into the computer - everything that happens in your software and applications happens via the monitor. It is hence very important to choose a good monitor to go along with your new PC. The type of computer monitor that you choose really depends on what type of work you will be doing on your computer.
Here are some tips for how to choose computer monitor:

1. Large monitor will fill up all of your desk space, if you want to save your desk place, you should get an LCD monitor. The LCD monitor, or Liquid Crystal Display monitor, allows for a flat screen monitor.

2. If you are interested in watching digital videos, again we would recommend that you purchase a LCD screen. A lot of the newer, up to date models of LCD screens have an input for DVI (Digital Video Interface). However, you should also be aware that your graphic card must also be able to support DVI

3. Don’t pick large computer screen. Make sure that the computer screen your purchase is readable and easy to see. The larger the screen is, the worse the resolution will be. Do not go larger than a 19 inch screen when choosing a computer monitor. 14 or 15 inch screen is recommended.

4. LCD screens are a little bit pricier than CRT Monitors that are available. Although they are not as generally expensive now as they were when they first came to market, LCD monitors are still considerably more expensive than similarly-sized CRTs so, if budget is an issue for you, stick with a CRT.

5. Consult product reviews in computer magazines and on the Internet. Many different companies put monitors through rigorous testing and really can help you buy wisely.

Gokhiel, Thursday, April 2, 2009

Computer Printers

There are so many types and brands of printers to choose. Deciding what kind of printer you want to purchase can be confusing.
No matter which ever printer you plan to buy, regardless of the type, whether it is DeskJet / Inkjet / LaserJet, the first step you should think and answer is about what are you going to use the printer for?
Here are some tips for Home use and Office use to find the suitable Printer For you:

1. Home use

If you need the printer to print mainly text, maps for directions, a few photos then choose InkJet Printer.
If you need the printer to print high number of pages, still mainly text or no photo images and no need for color then choose Laser Printer, if color is needed a good fast inkjet printer is the choice, and if budget available than choose color laser.
If you need the printer to print photos, cards, scrapbooking, but nothing in high volume medium level photo Inkjet is the choice.

2. Office Use

If you need the printer to print mainly text and no color needed you can choose Laser Printer.
If you need the printer to print a lot of images and color: a lot of text with graphics, company newsletters, brochures, graphs and presentations then you can choose high end color laser printer.

When you need Multifunction Printer? If you need the printer to scan, copy and fax then you need multifunction Printer. If you don't necessarily need the printer do any of those things, then it will not be a factor you need to consider.
Tips : Also check the cost of printer ink cartridges, toner and paper for the different models. read all user reviews and note any comments regarding reliability, ease of use, and any hardware issues or defects.
