Computing tips
❖ Save your work frequently.
Your work stays in the computer’s temporary memory
until you save it to the disk. If the network you are using
goes down and you must restart your computer to
reconnect, or your battery runs out of charge while you are
working, you will lose all work since you last saved.
HINT: Some programs have an automatic save feature that you can
turn on. This feature saves your file to the hard disk at preset
intervals. See your software documentation for details.
❖
Back up your files to a removable storage media on a
regular basis. Label the backup copies clearly and store
them in a safe place.
❖ Scan all new files for viruses.
❖ Do not turn off the computer if a drive indicator light
indicates a drive is active.
The Windows
®
operating system records information, such as your
desktop setup, during its shutdown procedure. If you do not let the
Windows
®
operating system shut down normally, details such as new
icon positions may be lost.
