Laptop falls into water: What to do

It can happen that your laptop falls into water just as your phone can fall into water at any point. These things happen. You don't have to panic. At most times, the damage may be very minimal, as the water may not have actually penetrated the core of the laptop. In most cases, you may just need to unscrew the parts and put them in the sun to dry up. If they are not dried up properly, that can mean problem. And if some parts are affected by dust or scum, you may need to wash those with alcohol. If you don't have the ability to wash the parts carefully, just send it to the repairer. That should do it.

Laptop troubleshooting issues: What to do when your laptop won't display

The first thing you can do is to remove the RAM from its slot and clean it, then fix it back there carefully.  When fixing it back, you may try another slot. Don't forget that a bad RAM can also cause your laptop to fail to display. If you have two RAM, remove them, place only one RAM and check the display. If you fail to get any display, change the slot. If the problem persists, try connecting an external monitor to your laptop. Just look for the VGA connector on your laptop. Connect it to the external monitor, then switch on your laptop.

Problem with connecting my laptop to my TV through HDMI

I don't think many people do it but I enjoy connecting my laptop to my television through HDMI. My laptop enables me to watch and listen to content through the TV. For some reasons, the sound plays through my laptop and I can get my TV to display everything I want through my laptop. But sometimes sounds don't play through my laptop and I wonder what to do because if I go to the control panel on my laptop I can see the option of sounds from my TV but it doesn't work if I try to enable sounds from it. The main problem is I see the arrow pointing next to my TV icon and saying 'Not plugged in'. It wouldn't let me set it as default or configure.  What could be wrong?

Your laptop is an enemy of good night sleep!

If you’re one of those who complain about not having a good night sleep, you may not be aware that not only the TV can be responsible, but your laptop, your phones and other electronic gadgets can prevent you from getting the sleep you need. If it’s not the TV or the phones, then you need to change your laptop habits. Make sure that your laptop is off by the time you get into bed. Make no effort to switch it on even to do ‘brief’ tasks as that can lead to several hours of work. If your laptop is connected online, you may surf endlessly. If the laptop is not but is a gaming laptop, then you must realize that you have extra trouble on your hands. Whatever you do, when it’s time to sleep, get rid of those electronic gadgets, especially your laptop!

How to choose between a laptop, tablet, or desktop

One thing with me is that I prefer laptops because even while you place heavy amount of work on them, they still don't heat up as much as the desktops do. I strongly believe that the heat from desktop computers is usually one reason why they break down. Although a laptop can also break down because of heat, there may be other reasons you may want to go for a laptop instead of working on a small tablet. Which was able to work for you?
