I wanna clean out my big PC because I've had it for 4 1/2 years, plus we've had 3 dogs for most of that time too.
As you can guess the state of the inside of that computer will be about a million times worse than my laptop was!
Anyway, what safe ways will there be of cleaning it all out? Vacuuming causes lots of static and I can't be bothered to use compressed air as that will result in dust going everywhere and me sneezing myself to death.
Not sure what would be the best way, and it seems that vacuuming is OK as long as you don't hold it over components for too long.
Google has provided me with an interesting solution too!
"I recon you should hire an elephant from the local zoo for the day, try and hypnotise him so that he thinks the dust on your computer is really monkey nuts and then just watch as he sucks it all up. Last time I checked it was about £2.49 to hire one for the day, much cheaper than compressed air."
Any ideas will be appreciated. Thanks.

I have small thin pieces of fabric/material over any air intakes. They let air in perfectly but prevent the dust particles from going in. Dunno where they came from, but the inside of my machine is almost spotless.

In theory, if you connect the end of the "hose" on the vacuum to a radiator or something with a piece of wire, that'll discharge any static.
I've never had a problem though. If in doubt, just close your eyes, hold your nose, and blow hard ;)

You really are a gimp. You're not funny and that was yet another post that had no relevance to the topic.

Bleach/A lot of starved dust mites.
I heard you can use pressurised air cannisters pretty safely.
that or just blow.
