Fix it Yourself

As you will already know, most computer problems can be fixed by the user with a little know how. This is especially true when it comes to desktop computers as their insides can be easily accessed and modified. Many problems with Laptop computers can usually be fixed without even undoing a screw, but for those that can't, it's probably best to leave it to somebody who has more experience.

I've started to write some articles to guide you through some easy fixes for common problems.

Please be aware that any work you carry out on a computer is totally at your own risk. These articles are for advice only!

So, what are we going to fix first?

• How do I safely open and close my computer case?
  
  
• My computer sometimes shuts down by itself. How do I clean inside the case to prevent it overheating?
  
  
• I receive an error message before Windows loads. The time and date resets.
