Troubleshooting and Maintenance 49

Creating data backup discs

Use CD or DVD recording (or burning) software that is installed on your computer to create

backup discs of important information, including personal files, e-mail messages, and Web

site bookmarks. You can also move data to an external hard disk drive.

When writing data to a backup disc, use software that includes write verification

functionality. This feature compares the data on your hard disk drive with the data copied to

the disc to ensure it is an exact copy. Depending on your disc recording software, you may

need to manually enable this feature (refer to the software documentation).

If you encounter recording issues, try alternate media (different types or brands). Also, use the

Windows Explorer tool to view your files and verify content was copied over. To open

Windows Explorer, right-click the Start button, and then click Explore.

Creating system recovery discs

This is a one-time procedure that you should perform while your computer is working

properly. If you encounter problems with your computer later, you can restore it to its original

factory settings by using the system recovery discs that you created. Refer to “Creating

recovery discs” on page 51 for details.

Keeping the Computer Free of Dust, Dirt,

and Heat

Keeping your computer system free of dust, dirt, and heat will prolong its life. Dust, pet hair,

and other particles can build up, creating a blanket effect; as a result, components can

overheat, or, in the case of the keyboard and mouse, not work smoothly and effectively.

Check your system once a month for visible signs of dust and debris, and clean it about once

every three months.

Cleaning the computer and monitor

1 Unplug the computer from its power source.

2 Unplug the monitor from its power source.

3 Use a clean, dry cloth to dust the computer case and the monitor.

4 Use a clean cloth dampened with warm water to wipe the computer case and the

monitor case clean.

Do not use water on the monitor screen.

5 Use a clean cloth to dry the computer and monitor case.

6 Use a clean, dry cloth to clean the monitor screen, or, for more thorough cleaning use

an antistatic screen cleaner and a clean cloth.

NOTE: If there is sticker residue or a spill on the computer or monitor case, use

isopropyl or rubbing alcohol and a lint-free cloth to remove it.
