How many times do you clean your computer each year?

Dust or dirt may stay inside the computer and it need to be cleaned after the period.

Would some one tell me why my pc can't load some video from sites like youtube and other.
it can load some video but for some, i only got a black screen or it loads only 4 second then stops.
I try refresh, clear cache, but it still don't load the video.

I have a desktop with windows xp and use firefox.
Thanks for your help.

Cleaning?

Physical, every 2-3 months or whenever I buy a new gadget to throw in the box. I just suck some of the dust out with a vacuum cleaner and use a dry cloth on top of drives to get the excess.

My OS is Linux and doesn't need cleaning or defragging although I do get rid of unwanted software installs from time to time.

Twice Here too.

PC's like cars. They need their air filters changed, oil changed..etc.. smile.gif

I defragment once a month and clear my cookies and do a registry check with CCleaner every day. I do alot of GPT, so my cookies have to be cleared regularly. I run Spybot and Ad-Adware SE Personal once a week Once a month, I go at my keyboard with a keyboard vacuum and some q-tips. rolleyes.gif

I can't really clean the inside that well since I use a labtop, but I do what I can & change the air filter twice a year. Re-install windows once a year.

I've got a boyfriend for that biggrin.gif He is mad about computers - always adding some new features to mine, deleting everything that seems to him useless (including my games).. What concerns my work machine I do that every 3 or 4 months
JoshuaM
I can't remember either when was the last I clean the insides of the computer. However, I do surface clean every 3 - 4 months once. Would do organize folders, remove & backup files & defrage about 4 - 5 months once.

I feel like I need to take a bath now!

Actually I don't have a cleaning schedule, I just clean my pc whenever I wanted to but I do it as often as possible. It's pleasant to work when it's clean.

On the software side, I am constantly doing maintenance to keep the hard drives clean and the computer running tip-top.

I do a detailed, physical clean about every 6 months.
