Hi Hussein.

The battery may have lost some charge during the period of non usage, so it would be advisable to fully recharge, then discharge the battery for a couple of cycles to get the maximum life from the pack. Lithium Ion batteries don't suffer from any memory affect issues, however if left unused for a long period of time will eventually discharge themselves and will need warming up to regain their maximum efficiency.

All the best, Ibrahim.

Subject: [access-uk] Tips for using laptop after being unused for a long time?


Hi,

I was wondering if anyone familiar with this knew if there were any tips I
should follow when using my laptop again after it's been left unused for
some considerable time? I mean, apart from the OS updates being out of date and antivirus needing updating, is there anything that could potentially go
wrong?

Now that I no longer have the need to travel about as much the laptop's just
been sitting in my bag for about a month.  I removed the battery and have
stored it separately.  I don't envisage needing to use the machine again
until June, when it'll have heavy use for about a month.

Just wondering if there's anything I should be aware of?  the laptop runs
Windows 7 32-Bit.

Thanks.
