It is recommended that all computers that use Total Rental

cause program errors. This program should be run at least
once a week.

To RUN Microsoft Scandisk follow these steps:

    1. Click on the Start Button
    2. Select Programs
    3. Select Accessories
    4. Select System Tools
    5. Select Scandisk
    6. Place a check in Automatically Fix Errors if a check is
      not already there
    7. Select Thorough
    8. This will take anywhere from 30 - 45 minutes depending
      on the speed of your system

     

    Note: Please run this during non business hours

It is also recommend that a Virus Scanning Program be also run
to prevent viruses from afflicting the system. These programs should
be disabled and prevented from running on startup, because they can
effect system performance. These programs should be run manually
during non business hours at least once a day.
