Many years ago I developed a strategy for building a customers’ home PC in a way that helps avoid future technical support problems and increases customer satisfaction. Part of that strategy is partitioning the hard drive in a way that can prevent data loss when Windows crashes. By creating multiple partitions, the operating system can be installed on it’s own primary partition, allowing user created data to be saved on another partition. When the operating system crashes or becomes corrupt, data saved to logical drive partitions are not affected. If needed, the primary partition containing the operating system can be formatted or the OS reinstalled without the loss of saved data. Read the rest of this entry »

In this day and age, professionals, homemakers, and students alike want a computer that could do it all. Computers have taken over more and more primitive tasks over the years such as sending or receiving correspondence (email), storing huge loads of files or documents (archive), drawing blue prints and creating industrial plans (AutoCAD), accounting and organizing data (Microsoft Excel), and field research (world wide web). The convenience of it all only reinforces the need for it. However, not everyone is blessed with technological savvy. For most of us, we just want a computer that’s reliable, more than anything. A functional monitor, an uncomplicated looking CPU, a decent keyboard, and an ice-age printer ought to do the trick.
