A) System fans and vents have not become clogged with dust therefore overheating the system, a common cause of failure in all environements.

B) Drives and fans are running efficiently and show no signs of impending failure.

Regular servicing also gives you a chance to find out about updates to software including anti-virus/anti-spyware software and recent developments in technology.

Computers in a small business environment should be serviced every 6 months, Home computers should be serviced every 12 months,

It is very easy to become dependent on your computers but your computers are dependent on you for maintaining their reliability.
