5. Get a good anti-virus and spyware program and keep them up to date. I use Avast, Super Anti-Spyware and CCleaner to keep my laptop running efficiently.
6. Make sure to enable sleeping or hibernate modes so that when not in use your laptop powers down. This will help prolong it’s life and help extend battery life.
7. Close the lid when not in use. If the lid is down when unattended there is less chance of something happening to your screen or keyboard. As well, the laptop will power down when you close the lid so it helps that way as well.
