HOW TO: know when my computer need service

Today I will teach when we need service our computers. It's all about hardware. If your computer never service, it's ok but your computer will have short life compare with others and may be not working properly without notice. So lets we see when should we service our computers.

1. Cooler fan make too much noisy compare with others same system.
--> Open computer casing and take a look at heatsink & cooler fan. There must be have a lot of dust. Take out the heatsink, take off fan from cooler. Brush the fan, clean heatsink with water and after that keep heatsink dry before put back with fan. Clean up top of CPU and put a little bit cooler paste before join it back with heatsink & cooler fan.

2. Power supply fan make sound noisy.
--> There is nothing much we can do with it. It's is because security reason. So what we can do just brush at hole front and back of power supply. I believe a lot of dust stick out there.

3. Motherboard, HDD temperature so high. More than 50°C beyond normal.
--> Take off all memory, display card and any PCI card attach with motherboard. Clean up from dust with brush. Also brush from dust your motherboard and HDD.

4. CPU temperature so high 55°C and above.
--> Open computer casing and take a look at heatsink & cooler fan. There must be have a lot of dust. Take out the heatsink, take off fan from cooler. Brush the fan, clean heatsink with water and after that keep heatsink dry before put back with fan. Clean up top of CPU and put a little bit cooler paste before join it back with heatsink & cooler fan.

5. Computer shutdown suddenly after use in 5 to 10 minutes or more.
--> Open computer casing and take a look at heatsink & cooler fan. There must be have a lot of dust. Take out the heatsink, take off fan from cooler. Brush the fan, clean heatsink with water and after that keep heatsink dry before put back with fan. Clean up top of CPU and put a little bit cooler paste before join it back with heatsink & cooler fan. Check all capasitors near CPU and if you see one or more capasitors near CPU the electrolyte come out or top of capasitor gonna big (should be flat), soon you will need new mnotherboard >>:)

tips: How to know your system temperature? Switch on your system and press DEL button (some of motherboard have different way to go to BIOS setting) and find hardware monitor (some of motherboard using different name). From there you can see your motherboard & CPU temperature. Or else you can use a software example
