How to Properly Care for Your Laptop Computer   by Www.battery-company.com.au

You’ve spent a lot of money acquiring the best performing portable computer that you could comfortably afford. Why not do what you can to keep it running at it’s best? In this eHow article, you will learn some of the simple things that you can do to maximize the longevity of your investment.

The first and best thing you can do to ensure that you are keeping your laptop from harm is to invest in a laptop carrying bag. These are simple and economical, and they keep your computer from the elements. Elements such as dust, coffee, and children can drastically reduce the life of your laptop.

There are dust, germs, and other nasties in the air no matter where you go. A relatively inexpensive and easy option to decrease the amount of dust in your laptop is to keep some ‘canned air’ around. This is an aerosol can of a pressurized gas that is intended to forcefully blow out any accumulation of dust, dirt, or cookie crumb that may have found its way into your computer.
Key places to spray include:
* Inside the CD tray, to include the cavity beyond it (aim inside the hole)
* Between the keys of the keyboard *see step 3, below
* USB, Ethernet and other accessible ports
* Your monitor
* Any of the dust ports on the underside and sides of the computer. Some of these support the fans to cool your microprocessor and your power supply, items prone to overheating if dust impedes the cooling flow of the air

For approximately $15, give or take an arm or a leg, you can pick up a small computer vacuum. This will give you the edge against anything that you may have lost between the keys of your keyboard. While the omnipresent dust is always there, you may have dropped microscopic bits of breakfast as well. Any matter of small, vile things may be down there, so be sure to suck them out. This is a more effective way than blowing between the keys with the canned air, as the canned air may lodge something further inside the keyboard. While the keyboard is the most obvious item to vacuum, hit every flat, solid surface you can. Especially the dust ports. And why not? It’s your vacuum, I’m not going tell you what not to do with it!

Investing in monitor cleaning wipes is another sure-fire way to improve your happiness as a longtime laptop owner. It definitely helps to be able to clearly see what is on the screen, unless you are paying bills online, in which case this may negligible. So lets get that grime off of there!

The modern laptop screen is a fragile thing so you must be gentle with it. First, blow off the screen with your canned air to remove any loose abrasive which may scratch the surface. Use a monitor cleaning wipe to properly and safely wipe off any accumulations on the screen. This process will also remove the stubborn pop spray after watching some of the funnier videos online. Avoid harsh chemicals, which may damage the viewing surface.
