About to leave town for 2 months, leaving my system home.

[Hyperlite]

I'll be leaving town at the begining of june for 2 months and my rig isn't coming with me, unfortunantly...I live in the southeast, so temps in the house will probably reach 75-80 on a daily basis (no ac in the house). What should i do to make sure my system still boots when i come back? any suggestions? I'm mainly worried about dust settleing and humidity.

Got insurance yet?

Kidding aside, nothing special, it will boot when you get back, assuming it's still there of course.

i dismantle my computer and hide different parts in different places of the house... but then I've good reason to be paranoid about thieves where I live

that would suck if the thieves found your HD. 😉

uhh unplug it and it'll be fine. your computer is not a 5-month old puppy.

Unplug it from the power, phone and network. In the S.E. we have to worry about lightning strikes a LOT.

I know he should probably unplug it, but wouldn't he lose his BIOS settings if he's gone for long enough and the batter runs out?

i would unplug from wall. and put a cover over it. that way no dust either. or put the tower in your closet off the ground say on blocks or something in case the place floods from broken pipe or something.
