How is the laptop cleaned?

As you know, recently published the results of marketing research of the main areas of development of computer technology. From them it follows that in the foreseeable future full-fledged personal computers will be pushed out of the mass market (the so-called direction mainstream) more portable Laptops. In fact, this is evident not only to analysts. If only a decade ago the performance of laptops was significantly inferior to the speed of personal computers, and the cost of existing top models was too high, but now the situation has changed. A modern mid-priced laptop can successfully perform even the most complex calculations, and the performance of its video subsystem allows you to run "heavy" computer games. Not surprisingly, buyers choose compact laptops, not system blocks, which will additionally require a special table occupying space indoors. That's why the owners of portable computers have specific tasks, for example, you need to know how to clean the laptop.

A small enclosure requires manufacturers to very tightly place components and Use a compact cooling system. Because of this, at least twice a year, you need to clean the laptop inside of the dust.

There are two ways to solve this problem: yourself and with the help of a service center. Usually, after learning how much it costs to clean the laptop, many owners decide to do this job themselves. And it's not just about the cost, because before handing over the laptop to the service center you have to worry about the safety of personal data (photos, codes, cards, etc.).

Cleaning the laptop includes the following steps: dismantling the case, dismantling part of the cooling system, cleaning, assembly. Let's consider in more detail every moment.

Before starting disassembly, turn off the power (the cord from the outlet), turn the case upside down and take out the battery. Unscrew the screws that hold the body cover (they are very easy to determine). Carefully poddevaem to remove from the latches, and remove. We carefully inspect the state of the components.

Next comes the cleaning of the laptop itself. If possible, leave the enclosed premises. Remove the cover that closes the fan. With the syringes we blow out all the dust. Remain the remaining child brush for paints. The dust that has hovered between the radiators must sometimes be cleaned with a match or a needle (do not forget to blow it with a syringe). For complex contaminants, for example, on fan blades, a piece of damp cotton wool may be required (electronic components can not be so wiped!).

Depending on the complexity of the design, cleaning the laptop can take from 10 minutes to half an hour. Unfortunately, some manufacturers unsuccessfully place components, so to get to the fan, you have to remove part of the motherboard. Reassemble in the reverse order.

Please note that if a vacuum cleaner is used for cleaning, the distance between the nozzle (retractor / blower) and the electronic components should be at least 5 cm - this will prevent possible static damage.
