Preventive Measures on PC Components |

Drives |
Standard PC(s) consists of a floppy drive(s),
a CD-Rom/CD-writer/DVD drive, and a hard disk
drive(s). These drives are fixed inside the
system; however, these drives accumulate
dust with time. |
 |
 |
Floppy Drive(s):
A floppy may not be accessible if dirt has accumulated
in the floppy drive. Dirt can also cause a floppy to
get corrupted. To avoid this, clean the floppy drive head using
a floppy drive cleaning kit. The kit
contains a cleaning disk and a bottle
of isopropyl alcohol. |
The
steps to clean the floppy drive are
as follows: |
| 1. |
Put a few drops of isopropyl
alcohol in the access hole of the cleaning
disk. |
| 2. |
Insert the cleaning disk in the floppy
drive. When the disk spins over the
head, it cleans the head. |
