Posts: 8002 (03/02/2009 6:25 PM) Reply Quote More Recent Posts Message Friend Block Invite Ignore	1: What is the best way to clean your laptop screen? It's got water spots and ick on it so just wiping it with my sleeve will not work. 2: Not sure if it is a Toshiba or Vista thing, but I hate this little tool bar that pulls down from the top every once and awhile and I want it gone. It's for the F1-F12 buttons. Does anyone know what I am talking about and how I can get rid of it? Thank you! Edited By: ememkay25 03/02/2009 7:48 PM. Edited 2 times.

Make sure the cloth isn't too rough, or it might mess up your screen. I use an anti-static cloth that I already had for my SLR camera... it's really gentle but it does the job.

I forget what it was called though. Oh, and we used these wipes called Kimwipes.

My brother used to have a small kit with a spray and some kind of small duster and soft cleaning cloth for a laptop.
