I Will Leave This Site Forever If They Maintain This Layout Will You

What do you do to ensure that your computer is regularly maintained and tuned-up for peak performance?

OK, OK, as a techie, I'll cop to being a little derelict as regards my personal computer. But I usually run Frankenstein machines that are pieced together from other people's junk, with slight performance mods.

However, what I recommend and do with any computer that I service:

First and foremost, a physical cleaning at least twice a year. Open the case and blow out the dust. Most systems I service with performance problems have dust and blocked vents as a major performance issue. Check to see that all cards, memory and drive cables are properly seated (make sure the power is disconnected and drained and that you are properly grounded to the machine before doing this).

At these semi annual service times, remove all unnecessary software and programs. Remove items from the start menu that are unneeded. Too many start menu items use up system resources, and because they run in the background you usually don't see them.

Empty temporary Internet files. Minimize the number of toolbars you run on your browser. Check around and find out which browsers use fewer resources, especially if you are running an older machine.

On this semi annual clean you also want to defragment your hard drive and run error checking. If you have questions on how to do this, you can do a search for the answers either on the Internet or by using Windows' "Help and Support" feature.

On a weekly basis, run your antivirus/antispyware software. Make sure to update your software everytime you run it, either by directly connecting to the Internet, or if that is not possible by downloading from a connected machine and installing manually. Antivirus/antispyware updates are crucial, as new threats pop up daily. A good registry cleaner doesn't hurt as well.

If running a Windows machine, do Automatic Updates. You can set this a few different ways. As a techie, I have it download and install it later, usually waiting to see if others report performance problems. I then install after the performance issues have been fixed.

If you take care of your computer it can last a long time. Hopefully these tips will help you in doing so.

Tips on becoming a great writer?

I love to write, I am currently a college student trying to decide between being a journalist or a lawyer. I eventually want to be a full time fiction writer. Any advice?

Does God forgive my sins?

I've done homesexual acts and I'm only 15, I've denied God and didn't want anything to do with him. I say I was an atheist for like 2 or 3 years.

Recently I've prayed to God and I felt a tingle as if I felt his presence and he was watching and listening to me. I will start praying everyday because I really want to spend eternal life in Heaven with God now. I feel like he is helping me a lot now. But will he forgive me sins and do I have a chance to go to Heaven.

If your going to answer God isn't real please just leave because it will make me feel bad and I will report you.
