mac repair

We’ve received a lot of fascinating messages in our forums over the years, so we decided to compile a list of the most common ways individuals break their computers in the hopes of avoiding others from making the same mistakes. So, just in case you chose to take that path, here are some ways to break your computer. With your little children, let it alone for five minutes. You think you know what each of the monitor’s dials accomplishes. When you return to the computer after the youngster has gone, the screen is suddenly yellow, wavy, and covered with polka dots. The keyboard keys have stopped working, and the printer is printing nonsense. Make an effort to set aside a computer for the kids. 

BIOS Upgrades That Don’t Work:

We get a lot of questions concerning BIOS upgrades that don’t work. A failed BIOS upgrade is equivalent to a failed brain transplant. While updating the BIOS may be necessary at times, you will usually gain no additional functionality by doing so. If you’re having problems with your computer and decide to flash the BIOS, make sure you have a backup of all of your files in case something goes wrong. If you have a mac, you should get it fixed as soon as possible from a mac repair shop.

Just start deleting things: 

We also get a lot of questions from customers who are having trouble powering up their computers. When we ask whether there have been any recent system modifications, we sometimes hear things like “that software explorer.exe was taking up a lot of space, so I eliminated it.” Only use the Add/Delete Programs section of the Control Panel or the program’s uninstaller to remove programmes.

Open Email Attachments:

Even from individuals you know, opening attachments might be dangerous. Worms will spread through email attachments. They send an email to everyone in your address book using your email address. As a result, the email may appear to be from Sister Susie when it is actually a virus. Before you open an attachment from a relative, phone and ask them questions. Invest in a commercial-grade antivirus that checks incoming and outgoing emails at the absolute least.

Move your computer from one side of the room to another:

Isn’t that the safest thing to do? Wrong. While we haven’t figured out why this happens, many forum users have written in to claim that all they did was move the computer from their bedroom to the living area and it stopped working. Even after returning the computer to the bedroom, it continues to malfunction. A defective 350 WT power supply should be replaced with a known good 150 WT power supply. That’s all there is to it.

Download Freeware:

Freeware isn’t all awful. It’s not a good idea to put it on your computer unless you receive it from a reputable source. It’s a pain to be infected with spyware and viruses. When you download and install the virus yourself, though, it only makes things worse. Programs that were once free are now packaged in an installer that includes browser toolbars and other extras that can cause your machine to crash or take over.

Hit it:

Smacking your computer when it crashes or takes too long to complete a task, no matter how satisfying it feels, is not a good idea. Tough love is a binary concept that computers do not comprehend.

Heating your computer

Examine your computer’s location: is it near a heating vent, a radiator, a heater, or a fireplace? Is it leaning against a wall or on your lap, with a pillow or blanket serving as a “desk”? If any of these seem familiar, it’s possible that your PC is on fire!

TIP: Always place your computer on a hard, flat surface to keep vents clear and heat sources at bay. Cooking is an excellent way to ruin your PC! If you think your computer has overheated, look for the vents on the device and blow them out with compressed air. If that doesn’t work, you should seek expert assistance.

Conclusion:

Explained above are some of the mistakes that people make when it comes to their computers. We should try and avoid these mistakes to make our systems run smoothly.
