„General tips for maintenance

1Check the capacity of your hard disk drive from time to time. If the hard disk drive gets too full, Windows® will slow down and might produce errors.

2Empty your recycle bin on a regular basis.

3Use the Microsoft Disk Defragmenter on your hard disk drive on a regular basis to improve data seek and read time.

To free up disk space, uninstall unused application programs.

Clean out your Inbox, Sent, and Trash folders from your e-mail client program.

At least once a week, make a point to back up your data. If critical data is present, it is a good idea to perform a daily backup. Lenovo has many backup options available for your computer. CD-RW drives or CD-RW/DVD drives are available for most computers.
