How to maintain the computer in winter

As we all know, when the weather is hot, the computer needs to strengthen the heat dissipation, in fact, in the cold dry season, the use of computers also have some attention.

The computer is also afraid of cold

In cold areas, if the room does not turn on the heating, some computer accessories such as the motherboard, the capacitance on the video card will not work because the ambient temperature is too low, this will occur when the boot can not start the problem, and such a failure is not easy to analyze, because the place of repair is very likely to open the heating, You will find that the computer can be used to repair and start again.

Solution: Buy a good work of computer accessories, and to form a home after the first heating, and other indoor warmer time to open the habit of computer. In addition, when it is too cold, the lubricating oil in the radiator fan also dries and becomes greasy, and can buy the fan for the ball bearing.

Static electricity is also a hardware killer

In winter, many areas of indoor air are relatively dry, this environment is very easy to produce static electricity. Because the instantaneous voltage of electrostatic is very high, it is possible to damage the computer accessories in contact. Therefore, in the winter also pay special attention to prevent the harm of static electricity.

Solution: There are many ways to prevent, the main idea has two: first, try to avoid the static electricity, the second is to transfer static electricity. For the former, the simplest way is to maintain a reasonable indoor humidity, humidifier is a good thing. And for the latter, in the disassembly of the computer, wash hands first, or touch the water pipe, you can carry the electrostatic transfer out.

Pay attention to voltage stability

In order to keep warm, it is very common to turn on air conditioners or heaters because of the high power of these products, which can cause voltage fluctuations at startup. If they are using the same power socket as the computer, the voltage fluctuations may also affect the stable operation of the computer, which will cause the monitor to vibrate, causing the reboot or damage to the hardware.

Solution: Very simple, first try to let air conditioners or heaters use dedicated power lines; second, in the purchase of power, as far as possible to consider those wide range of products, improve the ability to adapt to voltage fluctuations.

Attention to clean, timely dust removal:

In order to ventilate the heat, the computer chassis is not completely closed, so the dust is easily attached to the internal parts of the chassis. When the dust attaches to the surface of the parts, it will cause heat dissipation, serious problems will cause failure. If excessive dust is adsorbed inside the optical drive, it is easy to reduce the ability of reading disk. Therefore, the computer uses the environment to pay attention to clean, if has the condition, may carry on the dust collection regularly to the computer.

If the computer fails, please contact Lenovo National After-sales Service Center, to seek the help of Lenovo professional engineers.
