According to the computer that has been formulated, the computer is a tool used to process data. Computer maintenance must be considered properly in order to obtain stable results or computer performance. Computer maintenance both on the CPU and monitor must be done regularly. Computer maintenance is a basic thing that is often forgotten by users, causing damage to the computer.
How to maintain a computer with software:
- Follow the appropriate procedure when turning on and off the computer
- Perform shutdown first so that the operating system does not occur a problem.
- Perform regular data backups
- Perform data backups, help maintain data security, facilitate data distribution, and reduce storage capacity usage
- Use the appropriate operating system
- This operating system affects the specifications of the computer used.
- Defrag your hard drive regularly
- Its function is to organize and sort hard disk files based on the type of file / data so as to facilitate read / write which will lighten the workload and can extend the life of the hard disk.
- Clean the recycle bin regularly
- When deleting a file/folder, the file/folder is not immediately lost, because it will be accommodated first in the Recycle Bin. When there are a lot of files/folders in the Recycle Bin, it will take up disk space which causes slow disk reading.
- Uninstall unnecessary programs
- Hard disk space that takes up a lot will slow down the hard disk read/writer process which causes a heavier workload so that the hard disk will be damaged quickly.
- Close useless programs
- Programs that are run will require memory (RAM) so that the more programs that are run, the more memory is taken up. This makes the computer run slower and makes the workload heavier, resulting in shorter component or computer life.
- Use application programs as needed
- If you use the application program as needed, then it will extend the life of the software.
- Updated Antivirus
- Do it against antivirus. With a virus, it will cause access to the computer to be slow and damage the system or data.
- Small dust or dirt that sticks
- Clean the dust using a compressor and carried out in an open room. When maintaining a computer hardware, be careful when cleaning the insulating layer on the PCB is chipped which will cause corrosion of the copper strip. If this happens, then you have to replace the peripherals. Use a contact cleaner/degreaser cleaner if there is corrosion in the socket to clean it. Do not clean using a brush to prevent dust from entering.
- Checks on the installation of peripherals
- Always check again when installing the motherboard or peripherals so that there will be no problems.
- Keep things that contain magnetic fields away
- The magnetic field causes the monitor's colors to become uneven or streaky. Keep objects such as speakers, cellphones and other objects that contain magnets away.
- Stabilize the mains voltage
- High voltage or even low, will cause the computer to die suddenly. Use a UPS and stabilizer if the house is in an area with frequent power outages.
- Sufficient air ventilation
- Air ventilation that is not good will cause excessive heat which components / electronics will also heat up quickly so that it can shorten the life of computer components.
- Cooling system (fan and cooling aluminum)
- Add a better cooling system when users often use high-performance computers.
- Turning on and off the computer must also be in accordance with the procedure
- Perform a shutdown on the computer that will be turned off before unplugging the power cable.
- Avoid placing the computer in direct sunlight.
- Caring for LCD monitors
The more often you take care of your computer hardware software, the computer will last longer and last longer. (Tria)
