How to clean your notebook

From time to time it may be good to clean your laptop. Think of the fact that the laptops are actually small boxes, where dust feels at home! First thing you should do is to pick up a screwdriver and open up the laptop. You should also use a flashlight and something to clean the dust away.

First after opening up your laptop you should take a look at your laptop's fan. Like all fans, they spin a lot, really :-) and they pick up a lot of dust. You will see that you will find a lot of dust on your fans. With smooth moves you should remove the dust. Then go to the ducts and vents and then to the ribbon cables of your laptop, then around the hard disk.

If you have a can of compressed air you should use it now. Put on a dust mask and start spraying your laptop big times! Spray all the dust away, like when you do the spring cleaning! You will be surprised how much dust can come out of your tony laptop.

Turn your laptop around and shake it. Not hard, but shake it, you will find that a lot of larger particles are still there. The same way you've done with the keyboard. You didn't?Well, you should do it, really, remember to shake your keyboard so all the dust, hair and no matter what pieces fall out of it. You could also use that can of compressed air we spoke about earlier. Don't be embarassed by what you find inside your keyboard. I know I am not, and I find a lot of interesting things...oh, look, I found my Metallica t-shirt I lost last year ;-)

While your computer is open, try to check also larger components to see if they are bound to the motherboard or to the case of your laptop, if not, fix this with the screwdriver. It is a good thing to do while you have your laptop open. Later it will not be possible, right?

Then put your laptop together again and remember to clean the screen of your laptop and the exterior. Remember to clean the touchpad, the case and every other external part as well. It will make a nice impression, well, you know...maybe now you will want to sell it...it looks so good now...
