Digital Crisis provides basic steps for any and every computer user should take to help minimize computer repair costs. Always remember, Digital Crisis is here to help you, we’re here to talk to you about your computer issues.
1.) Back up your computer regularly!
This is extremely important, people fail to realize or accept how important their data is on their computer until it’s too late. If you don’t have a backup solution talk to Digital Crisis about your backup needs.
2.) Keep your computer free of dust, and in a well-ventilated cool area.
The worst enemies of any electronics are dust and heat. Keep a computer cool and free of dust, and you greatly increase the longevity of your computer.
3.) Defragment the hard drive.
Almost everyone has heard of defragmenting their hard drive, but rarely does anyone do it. Overtime your hard drive’s content gets disorganized from frequent file access, and must be reorganized. Think of it as you accessing files from a file cabinet, and not putting them back after a while it gets difficult to find the files that you already pulled out. Defragging your hard drive is like putting those documents back where they belong.
4.) Don’t feed your computer free candy.
Avoid “freebie” sites, websites that offer free programs tend to have spyware/malware, therefore slowing your computer and potentially exposing you to security vulnerabilities or even possibly identity theft.
5.) Keep your computer on a healthy cookie diet.
It’s natural for your computer to collect cookies and temporary internet files while browsing the internet. A cookie is a small file that stores basic visitor information on your computer. We recommend you clean out your temporary files and cookies on a weekly basis.
6.) Feed your computer clean and consistent power.
The leading cause for power supply failure is inconsistent power or power outages. Getting a good decent battery backup power supply keeps the sensitive electronics in your computer running at the proper power voltages, regardless of surges or power outages.
7.) When your computer isn’t running like it normally should, call for help.
A computer is much like a car, usually there are signs that your computer may be infected, or there is a hardware problem and could be much less expensive to repair during the early stages of potential failure. Digital Crisis offers free computer consultation for these kind of situations, take advantage of it!
