As regard the question which you asked "today in some of our TPM church, we have computers with internet connection.. is it not wrong to have computer in church? "

 

Brother, Internet we are using for the way of communication.. like POST BOX,FAX.. In our faithome they are not going to internet explorer and browsing the websites.. they are receiving and sending the mails which they configured in outlook express or Microsoft Outlook.for communicate with other FH branches and getting circulars from our head quarters.

 

And as regard of Computer is wrong or not.. Please note the computer is very much useful for our routines.. But for everything we have go as per god's guidance or as per the leading of spirit of god.. If we take anything from this world there will be advantage and disadvantage.. the matter is how we handle. you cannot close the eyes and walk through the road.. but whatever which evil things which u saw that should not be dwell in your heat.. or you don't have to give space for that. you have to rebuke that spirit on the same time....

There is no problem with using Computers in my humble opinion!

It's not at all proper to compare the computer with a Television.

A Computer is a TOOL which can be put to multiple use. Whereas Television is not. It does only one thing. Just like any tool if put to proper use computer and the internet helps us in our lives.

With computer and also the internet the user has the ultimate control. With TV you have no control of what you get other than switching channels.

I can go on and on with numerous examples differentiating a computer from a TV.

 

But on the other hand if you make your computer a media center then it's your choice. This argument is like saying don't use knives at home.

 

Just one man's opinion!

 

 

Preventive maintenance is the key to obtaining years of trouble-free service from your computer system. Preventive maintenance program reducing problem behaviour. data loss, and component failure and by ensuring a long life for your system.

Preventive maintenance also can increase your system's resale value because it will look and run better.

 

It includes several steps that promote a longer trouble-free life for your PC. It protects a system from the environment, such as power-protection devices: ensuring a clean, temperature controlled environment: and preventing excessive vibration.

Check for and install any operating system updates.

clean the system, including the monitor screen, keyboard, CD/DVD drives, Mouse, and so on..

Check that all system fans are operating properly, incluting CPU heat sink, power supply, and any chasis fan.

 

Preventive Maintenance of Hard Disk Drive(HDD) :

Hard disk preventive maintenance includes the following :

Making Periodic backup of your data & critical areas, such as boot sectors, file allocation tables(FAT), and directory structures on the disk.

You should defragment hard disk at least once a month to maintain disk efficiency and speed.

Delete all temporary files and wweb browser history and Temporary Internet files.

Take backup and format HDD at least once a year and reinstall all software to maintain disk efficiency and speed.

 

Following Precautions are required for HDD protection :

Provide good surge protection.

Do not keep HDD or CPU near the vibration area.

Ensure fitting of HDD, that the disk is fully secured and well suported in CPU cabinet.

Periodically perform scan for viruses.

Do not install freeware software such as games, utility programs that contains viruses.

 

Preventive Maintenance of Monitor :

Monitor fails due to following reasons :

Open circuit or disconnection inside monitor.

Short circuit inside the monitor.

Display is not stable.

Diagonal lines are present.

Screen is flickering.

Focus is not proper.

No control over brightness.

 

Precautions :

Switch off the monitor, before switching of mains.

Use dust cover for monitor when monitor is off.

Do not put monitor near to strong magnetic field, which may cause improper deflection.

Clean the display screen so that it is dust free.

clean the monitor exterior with mild detergent solution without allowing the water drip inside the monitor.

Provide proper ventilation such as cooling fan heat dissipation to avoid intermittent failures.

Do not put paper or anything on top of monitor.

 

Preventive Maintenance of Keyboard :

Handle the keyboard gently and carefully.

Press the keys gantly without applying force and do not rest hand on the keyboard.

Do not spill liquids on the keyboard.

Do not keep anything on the keyboard.

Do not play with the keyboard after powering-off the system.

Make sure that the cable is not subjected to high stress at the keyboard end. This will cut signal wires inside the cable.

Periodically, clean interior of keyboard with a miniature vacuum cleaner or turn it upside down to blow out the accumulated dirt.

Use dust cover for keyboard when not in use.

Clean conducting parts of keyboard, use denatured alcohol along with lint free material.

 

Preventive Maintenance of Printer :

Do not place Printer near heat generating machine, such as heaters and furnances.

clean the exterior of Printer using soft cloth with mild organic solvent.

Periodically clean out dust, paper fragments, and dirt from its mechanism using soft brush.

Use quality ribbon to avoid damage to print head.

Denatured alcohol canbe used for cleaning the inner parts such as stepper motor, Print head etc.

Verify the insulation resistence between AC Power line and Printer chassis.

Use the dust cover for printer, when not used.

Check the paper feed path is free of obstruction.

Clean the paper feed path, platen and ribbon path with soft cloth.

Lubricate mechanical parts.

Clean Printer-head slider rails using non-oily lubrications suahc WD-40.

 

 

Following are importance of Preventive Maintenance :

A hard disk is one of the important I/O devices and is most commonly used as permanent storage device in any processor. Most PCs have hard disk having capacities in the range of 20GB to 80GB. Due to improvement in technology and density of magnetic disk, it has become possible to have disk with larger  capacity and at a  cheaper rate. A hard disk is basically comprises several metal platters coated with magnetic material.  These plates are rotating with high speed(5,000 revolutions per second) along the central shaft. Each surface has a read/write head mounted on arm. The head can possibly move in radial direction. Usually , both sides of a platter are used for storing data. Each surface is divided into concentric circles called tracks. There are 300 tracks per platter. Each track is divided into about 30 sectors, separated by gaps. To access data in a specific location, the arm has to be positioned over the proper track. This takes about 3-20 minutes. Once the sector is found, the data can be read at a rate of 4 MB/s. The disk controller is requires for buffering  the data to avoid bus contention and for bookkeeping.

Hello guys , Yes you are right. I am talking about the blue screen error that often occurs in one's laptop or a desktop . It is really very annoying . We cant even save the work we are doing . Infact in some cases we cannot swith on our computer . Till date no one has found out a perfect solution of this problem . Some people say that you just wait , it will automatically go away . But friends it is a very serious issue , and it should be solved immediately or else it can do severe damage to the internal circuitry of your computer . First of all , does anyone of you know why it occurs . Well , according to me , there are many reasons of its occurrence . First of all it may occur if you not configured your hardware correctly . Secondly , knowingly or unknowingly if you have installed the wrong software which is not compatible with your hardware . So , basically it occurs when your software and hardware are not synchronizing properly . Some people also give overheating the reason of its occurrence , but i don't think if that is the reason . It generally occurs when you are installing a driver or a software . If the blue screen appears during the installation then there is no problem because the software you are installing is causing the problem . After you restart don't try to install that software again. If you have installed the software and then the problem is occurring then there is a serious problem . You should immediately uninstall the software or the driver from the control panel . If due to blue screen error your computer fails to start , then there is only one option available . You will have to install a new version of your OS . You can still save your old OS by installing the new OS in a different drive . But be careful because you will loose all the data on the drive in which you are installing the new OS . I tried to share my best knowledge regarding the most annoying "Blue Screen" error . Hope it proves to be useful for some of my friends over here .
