Health Check
My instinct says its time to give my PC a full health check, anyone got a good checklist of what I need to do? Prefrably including expected results and warning signs.

Right ok we will start with software.
Just a bit of house keeping to start with.
Now for hardware, first you will need to go shopping.
Computer Should Be Turned OFF and Unplugged.

Thanks, I'll do that sometime soon but you seem to have misunderstood me, I was looking for a way to check *if* the PC is healthy, not spring cleaning instuctions.

Run benchmarking software on your hardware see if it is still running at the peek of its performance.
Hard drives will click or be louder than normal if they are on there way out, and with these symptoms you should replace the hard drive before it dies. With the software if you want to just check to see if your systems ok. Then do what I said but do analyses in stead of scans. Would be a good idea to run check disk to see how you hard drives are doing as well. If you have temperature sensors check to see how hot thing are getting or just judge it with touch. If there getting to hot, dust out the case. Use some software like clever cache to see how your ram is doing. |
