Regular Periodic Maintenance Checklist?

[GreP]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.perform_maintain (More info?)

Can anyone point me to some documents that would give a periodic
maintenance checklist I could use for servicing some of my clients?
They're typically running W2k or XP or one of the attendant server versions.

Thanks,

grep

Yeah, something like that... but I was looking for something a bit more
in depth.

Grab a search engine, search for the first processor and open in new window
then repeat and compare them side by side. An even more important step (I
buy a lot of hardware online) is to check reviews and see what people like
and want the most and how happy people are with the product AND with the
vendor.

Err... Ignore that post... I had another post on the brain at the moment.
I'll see if I can root you up something a bit more detailed.

Here's a nice one for laptops that you can take a peek at:

This one might fit the bill:

This one looks pretty basic as well:

Those should be about what you're looking for. As I said, please ignore the
funny looking message, I had a post about processors that has been bugging
me running through my head. Sometimes a post just gets stuck there and I was
still looking it up when I saw that this one had come in and for some reason
added that message. Heh... Ah well.
