will it damage the machine?

no - I'm a computer tech and I leave mine on 24/7 and it does no harm. Been running like a charm for over 2 years straight. I just reboot once a week.

Yes you can keep your computer on all the time. It has very little moving parts and lasts a long time. But make sure you have a virus protector on the machine.

No. As long as you have plenty of air getting to the fans to keep the machine cool (which should always be the case) your machine can stay on as long as you like. I often leave mine on for weeks at a time.

I have 5 computers and I leave 3 of them running all the time. Laptops. They are fine.

yes you can keep it running for 2 days, just make sure that the place is condusive for the computer to withstand the heat, and if you are not using it, try to turn off at least the monitor.....

Yes it is fine. Make sure it is well ventilated. If connected to the internet makes sure it has the latest virus guard updates etc. Otherwise, if you don't need it on - turn it off for the environment's sake :)

yes..you can ...the most important thing is to make sure that your monitor is turned off when not in use.It will not do any harm to your computer..you can also change your FAN into water cooled fans..

no it wont most likely... but that depend on where u place your CPU.. try nt to block any holes or ventilators and it also depend on how many cooling fans u have inside ur pc.. but juz for 2 days.. most probably wont have any problems...
