It is recommended that you back up files, and defragment your hard disk drive at least monthly. If you use your PC a great deal, you may want to perform theses tasks more frequently.

If a software program or the operating system gets damaged, reinstall the software. Refer to “Using Application Recovery and System Recovery” on page 95 for details.

When your PC has software problems, it’s possible that a voltage spike, power outage, or brownout has occurred. Symptoms of voltage spikes include a flickering video display, unexpected PC startups, and the PC not responding to your commands. A voltage spike can occasionally corrupt or destroy files, so it is a good idea to consistently make backup copies of your data files. Prevent voltage spikes by installing a surge suppressor made for use with PCs between the power outlet and

the PC power cord.
