FIXIN’ IT UP Using different tools, Patrick Marsh, Computer technician, fixes a students computer battery due to the recent issues.
A number of students have found themselves with various issues stemming from the rapidly failing health of the laptops’ batteries, where some find shorter usable hours, even to the extent of not having functioning batteries without the laptops being on charge. To circumvent this issue, Munster’s tech department purchased 400 replacement batteries to install in laptops, with a waiting list. The department recommends students to consistently restart their laptops on school wifi as the department pushes out updates to try and fix issues with performance settings. Crier recommends you do this weekly, during tutorial, for consistency. Munster is also looking into getting new laptops for 2025.
