1.Repetitive strain Injury (RSI) is muscle strain due to repeated actions. Home PC users are unlikely to experience problems but a good posture and typing technique is still essential. When working at your PC, stand up, stretch and move about regularly.
2.Always use the shut down command from the start menu before turning the power switch off. Never turn the power switch off windows is running. Some newer PC’s automatically switch off power when shutting down.
3.If your PC was not shut down properly the last time you used it, a message will flash up the next time you switch it on. If this happens, allow your computer to boot up, and then restart it immediately. This ensures that the shut down mistake has no lingering after effects.
4.Copying programs from friends is not obtaining software for free- it is stealing. Unless you have purchased a license, you are breaking copyright laws and could be prosecuted.
5.If you intend to delete (or restore) a folder from the recycle bin, remember that windows will delete (or restore) the entire contents of the folder, not just the file you are interested in. Be sure you want to do this before proceeding.
6.Be careful when buying software on a disk. Ensure it comes from a reputable source and that the packaging has not been tampered with. If the disk has been used there is a chance that it carries a virus. Remember, pirated software is illegal and greatly increases the chances of catching viruses.
7.Never use ordinary household spray, polish or liquid spray cleaners on your keyboard. If liquid gets between or under the keys, it can damage the keyboard.
8.When you use a key combination that involves the ctrl or Alt keys with a letter or function key, press the ctrl or Alt key first. Otherwise, you may issue the wrong command.
