As a second year computer networking student at a technical college, I took a work study job maintaining 15 computers and 1 printer in a learning center at the college. I'm doing the windows updates and virus updates, deleting cookies & several other maintenace duties.Is there a maintenance plan or schedule available from more experienced personnel than myself. I would like to develop an accurate system so I can document what I do to each machine. Thanks
