A Simple Survey
Just wanna ask.
How many times you boot-up your pc per day?
Just state your answer by replying comment.
For myself, I start up the office PC and off it before I go home = 1 time, then go home, start my Laptop and off it before I sleep = 2 times.
So, what about you?
Just help out my friend to do this survey. Thank you for your reply.

Hi,
I have a PC in the office, a laptop and a desktop at home. I only reboot them when I need to. All my computers have been 24/7 for at least 4 months now. The last time I reboot was when I was installing some updates.
Hope this helps!
yah..about the same as justin before this.. my laptop is pretty much on all the time.. so think once is a good answer.. lolz..
I restart my mac once or twice every week, shutdown 2-3 times a month. It’s stable.
OH you are talking about PC ya, hahhaha. Paiseh
i think we really need to promote some Energy Savings awareness to all the bloggers…Climate change might be one of the issue we didn’t shut down our computers. Lets save this world. I personally will on my laptop twice a day.
i don’t use a PC anymore nowadays, i shut down and restart my laptop 3 times a day: lunch, dinner, and before sleep..
my HP laptop really easy overheat, bcz the fan hole is located at the bottom, not the side, always have to find some books to put beneath the laptop to make a gap for the hot air to come out..
jimkhor: but constant switching it on and off will cause easier damages to the pc/ laptop. then that time have to change new ones, which in turn will cause more harm .. i.e: need more energy to produce it, need more material etc..
so wondering if keeping it on is a better option.. just my 2 cents of opinion..
I always have my PC on at work. I just lock my PC before I leave. At home I turn my laptop on when I get home and turn it off before I go to bed. I cant shut down my PC at work because we get updates done in the middle of the night and if we shut down PCs then it will slow down any programs we are using thru the day.
Okay, let’s see. Laptop would be thrice a day and desktop once a day.
Well, by keeping the hardware constantly running, the lifespan would definitely be shorter, especially graphic cards and HDs. By shutting it off, you’re not only preserving precious energy but also the environment, in view of the rising tariff and pollution all that stuff. One might not make a difference but imagine a community of people leaving their machine idling all the time, its almost disastrous.
I don’t use a computer. So no restart or shutdown.
at least 2 times a day.
i open once i wake up and only off it when im going to sleep. use it or not using also on it. on lappie, my pc and bro’s sometimes.
At least once a day for my home PC, and once for my office laptop.
Then each of them last for at least 12 hours
