If you are reading this on what used to be a fast computer, but now it has the speed of a Commodore PET (remember those? I do.) then this article could be for you….

In this article I’m going to take about Removing Toolbars, Using CCleaner, Removing items from the systray and using Malwarebytes. While this is really simple for soem users, one can easily make the computer worse by disabling the wrong things. Please, if you do decide to do the below tips, do not blame me if you break something or make it worse. If you have any doubts about doing this yourself, I’m offering a $49 tune-up special which includes all of the below and more.

5 tips to keep your laptop screen intact and uncracked

Lately I’ve been seeing a LOT of broken LCD screens on Laptops. Some have been dropped, stepped on, fell off the desk, or even fell off the roof of the car..

How to keep your laptop screen intact and unbroken:

1. Never place it on the floor. That’s a great way to get it stepped on by you, a child or a dog. Yes, dogs are heavy enough to crack LCD screens.

2. Always have it on a flat and stable surface.

3. Don’t put anything heavy on top of it. Books especially are a no-no.

4. Don’t put it in a bag with anything else.

5. Always close the screen when you aren’t using it. If it were to get bumped or fell, it would absorb the shock better closed.

Remember to be careful with your laptop. Laptops can be fragile sometimes and all it takes is one drop or bump and WHAM your screen is shattered in to many little pieces.
