Laptops, portable computing devices are now widely used for various needs. work or entertainment.
The price is also affordable now, well.. Those who enter are also in the millions, you know.
However, it can be said that computer devices are easily damaged, especially if they are not cared for properly. How to use a laptop properly
In fact, using a laptop is not difficult. But there are many things to consider, especially when buying a new one.
Here I want to explain step by step how to use a laptop properly so that it lasts a long time.
1. Place the laptop properly
The first step before using your laptop is setting it up properly. Users are not aware of this, so it is not uncommon for laptops to break quickly.
If you want to put the laptop freely, the laptop can stand anywhere as long as the following two things are met:
Make sure the space is level, for example on a table
Place the laptop in a place that is not wet and dusty
The reason is, there is a vent at the bottom of the laptop. So here we have to ensure that the ventilation slots are not clogged and dust (especially water) cannot enter.
2. Open the portable display
Next, open the laptop screen. The method is simple, raise the screen slowly.
But some laptops sometimes have locks. First check the edge of the screen, if there is open it first.
Pay attention to the corners of the screen, don't tilt it too much down, because it can damage the hinge and even break it if you accidentally press it.
3. Turn on the laptop
To turn on the laptop, we must first locate the power button. Usually near the screen, on the keyboard or on the edge.
Some are round, some are egg-shaped.
All you have to do is press or slide a button which is usually marked with a light that lights up when the laptop is turned on.
4. Wait for the boot process
Assuming the laptop is running Windows, we only need to wait for startup.
Boot is the screen when your new laptop starts up. Load Windows from the login menu until everything is done.
It usually takes 10 seconds to 1 minute, be patient and don't make mistakes.
5. Using the touchpad and keyboard
When the laptop is turned on, we can immediately use it with touch and keyboard. Move the mouse pointer over the system with your finger.
Use the right touchpad button to open the menu and the left button to select (or you can double-tap the touchpad).
Of course, use the keyboard to enter the course.
6. Install the software
If you are buying a laptop for the first time, we must first familiarize yourself with one of the most important things. Either with the keyboard or with the system.
If you are used to it, then we can immediately start using the laptop normally.
What are laptops used for?
-Type
- surfing
- Edit photos or videos
- Playing games
But it depends on each one, what do you want to use? So there's a lot in laptop software.
7. Install the drivers
Did you install the software? So don't forget to install the driver too. So what's the difference between drivers and software? When explained, not too much difference. These drivers still contain software, but they control laptop components.
8. Connect the laptop to the WIFI network
That's just as important. We need to connect the laptop to a WIFI network so that the laptop can connect to the internet. The path is not difficult. Pay attention to the previous step when you install the driver, make sure the WIFI software is present.
Once installed, look for the WIFI button. Usually there is a special button.
9. Charge an empty laptop battery
Laptops use batteries that always run out. If it's finished, you just have to download it, you can do it as usual.
Take a laptop charger, plug it into the laptop port, then plug it into the mains.
Pay attention to the power source, preferably directly connected to the wall socket.
