Are you having problems with your old laptop?

Even if you take care of your laptop gently, sooner or later you may encounter some problems. Many people believe that laptop problems require expensive repairs. That is not true! Many common laptop issues can be solved easily.

Here we have given some simple solutions to five common laptop issues.

1. Overheating

When your laptop overheats, it can cause system crashes and freezes. Due to their small size and lack of ventilation, laptops tend to overheat more than other computers.

By using a smooth cloth or a keyboard cleaner, you can resolve the overheating issue. Inhalation vents can be protected from further dust clogging by placing filtered cloth over them. As hot air flows out quickly from the exhaust vent, do not place it there.

2. Battery Dying Quickly

After some time and regular use, the lithium-ion batteries can lose the ability to hold a charge. Some batteries will only last for a fraction of the rated runtime. In this case, battery replacement is essential.

3. Bad Keyboard

The keyboard tends to get bad after prolonged use or if you spill any hot drink or water on it. It is also possible for the keys to become dislodged or worn out over time.

On their customer support pages, many laptop manufacturers provide online guides for replacing keyboards.

4. System Crash

When their computers don’t boot up, most people panic. Most problems and their solutions are, however, very simple.

Remove your hard drive using instructions from the manufacturer and keep it in a USB enclosure- these are external housings for internal hardware.

5. Viruses or Malware

Viruses and malware can cripple the performance of your laptop more than anything else. Antivirus software is the best way to prevent viruses from entering your laptop. For protection against viruses and malware, you can use some free tools like ‘Ad-Aware‘ and ‘Spybot: Search and Destroy’ instead of spending money on antivirus software.

Here are a few easy steps that we’re sure will help you fix laptop issues!
