Question

your computer is really hot. you need to use your computer to get work done. what could you do to help solve this problem? clean the internal components on the computer. delete old files from the computers hard drive. remove the motherboard from the computer. run disk cleanup on the hard drive.

Explanation:

• Cleaning internal components (e.g., dust from fans, heat sinks) improves airflow. Better airflow helps dissipate heat generated by components like the CPU and GPU, reducing overheating.
• Deleting old files (option 2) and running disk cleanup (option 4) mainly free up storage space. While a less full hard - drive might have slightly better performance in some read/write operations, it does not directly address heat dissipation.
• Removing the motherboard (option 3) is an extreme and unnecessary step that would render the computer inoperable for work and does not solve the heat problem.

Answer:

Clean the internal components on the computer.
