What do I do if I spill a liquid on my keyboard or laptop?

Friday, June 20th, 2008

If you’re on a laptop and you happen to spill something on it, the first thing you should do is power it off. You dont want any electricity running through that thing when you’ve got liquid on it somewhere. The next thing you have to do is turn it upside down so that all the liquid spills out. Grab some cloth or whatever you can to wipe off all the excess liquid. Now grab your hairdryer and run it off the keyboard until everything looks dry. Just to be safe, leave it unplugged for about a day or two so you can be sure that it dries out and just before you’re starting it up again go over it with a hairdryer again. What alot of people don’t know is that liquid isn’t necessarily bad for your computer because all the parts in there actually get washed before they’re get put into your computer. I know that’s scary but that actually happens. After three days power it back on, you should be fine. If not, you can take it to a repair center but the chances are you haven’t done that much damage to it.

How do I properly clean my monitor and computer?

Friday, June 20th, 2008

How you clean your computer monitor depends on what kind of monitor you have. If it’s a CRT monitor that looks like an old TV, you can use alcohol or you can use a damp cloth with water. It really doesn’t matter because it’s a glass surface, so as long as you don’t scratch it, you should be good. When it comes to LCD monitors, don’t use alcohol. Use a damp sponge, a damp piece of cloth, and you can just wipe the dirt off. Alcohol actually damages the LCD screens. You can be a lot kinder on your peripherals - your mouse, your keyboard, your printer. They gather dust just like any surface does, so just use a cloth to dust the dirt away. If you’ve got a dirty keyboard, just use a damp cloth and scrub gently away at the dirt.
