| Moving your computer is no longer a risk |
|
|
- The first thing to do right after planning to move your computer is to back up all important files and programs. Store all the back up and original program disks safely.
- All floppy diskettes, cd-roms, tapes etc. must be removed.
- First shut down your computer then turn it off and start unplugging cables.
- One should be very careful when unplugging power cables and cables connected to the peripheral devices.
- Write on and stick masking tape to cables to identify to which device that particular cable is plugged into.
- Avoid pulling, rolling, crimping and do not apply any pressure or force while unplugging.
- All the peripheral devices must be disconnected and do not forget to remove things like ink cartridge or laser cartridge from printer or Xerox machine.
- Packing monitor, CPU or any other peripheral device of the computer must be done in their original boxes. It is always better because they have the exact size and capacity.
- In case you do not have the original box of the devices use boxes of the same size and capacity. And USE protection wraps like bubble wrap etc. Take special care while packing monitor.
- Do not forget to carry proper documents or bills or receipts of the computer and other peripheral devices.
