i was wondering if the inside of a computer is dusty and crap will that slow it down so it wont over heat or something. i know stuff like that slows the computer down thanks
more likely spyware on the computer as i've seen some dust bunny infested computers still working all right. run ad-aware se & spybot s&d to get rid of spyware & run your antivirus program plus do an online scan with antivirus.com. but clean out your windows cookies, temp & temporary internet folders & do a scandisk for errors
don't know as i've never used it. try this run pest patrol than spybot s&d than ad-aware se to see how many of each catches
As far as the dust is concerned, a light coating may not be too much of a problem but excessive amounts will overheat the PC in 2 ways. First the dust layer will absorb the heat and hold it like a blanket. Second it restricts the air flow by blocking the vent holes and fan blades and also slows air speed through the system. Not the best thing for your PC. Jerry
I would go with the brush on the exposed area and a can of air for the area you can't get at as suggested. I keep a thin piece of foam air conditioner filter over my intake holes. It catches most of the dust before it gets inside and is easier to keep clean. Jerry
