There are bound to be lots of technical problems associated with something as complicated as a computer.

The most common problem is with Broadband and modems. Although modems are usually quite reliable, the fact that they are supplied free of charge tends to mean they are some of the most basic types available.

The other piece of equipment most likely to fail is the hard drive. This stores all of the data on your computer including pictures, emails, documents etc, as well as programs. Although hard drives are pretty reliable nowadays they can, and unfortunately do fail. It is possible to recover some of the data from some damaged drives but it can be a long and difficult process. The best thing to do is regularly back up your information, and I can show you how to do this quite easily.

Backing up your data onto a CD or DVD I a very important process and something you should learn to do as soon as possible.
