RedM Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 1. Do I use an air duster to dislodge the dust and suck it away with a vacuum cleaner? 2. What about one of the teeny little vacuum cleaners? I'm asking as we have a small fan on the mobo that is making a lot of noise and it appears very dusty under and around it.

michael Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 Paint brush and hoover combo, those air blowers are nice but you end up breathing in years of dry skin and disease. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ark Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Take the case off, make sure the power is switched on, and toss a bucket of soapy water over it. Don't worry about the sparks - they are just bits of dirt coming free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angarak Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 It is actually possible to wash a computer. Some companies who deal with insurance companies use ultrasonic machines to clean smoke damaged PC's (and other electrical items)...and then dry them in a low heat oven. Crazy stuff, but it does work (though not something you want to try at home). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustGav Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 The cleaning team I had in to clean the data centre, used an aircompressor with a moisture trap and filter system, which fed 4 blow guns set at low pressure. Armed with that, paint brushes and hoovers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt I could come up with a believable reason for buying more than one case. We are online but you'd never find us (although I'd love Lewis to try) even then you still wouldn't be able to buy anything as we have to set your account up and send you your login details. We sell only to our distributors not to end users. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
