Problems turning on your computer?
If the screen is dark, check these items to see if you can identify
the problem:
m Is the computer plugged into a power source? If it is plugged into a
power strip, is the power strip turned on?
m Is the computer turned on? The power-on light on the front panel
should be on. If it isn’t, press the standby power button (marked with
the symbol ®) on the back of the computer.
m Are the keyboard and mouse cables connected correctly? (Don’t
disconnect the keyboard or mouse cable while the computer is on.
You could damage your equipment.)
m Is the monitor power cord plugged in?
m Is the monitor turned on? (Check the power-on light on the front of
the monitor.)
m Is the monitor video cable—the one connected to the monitor port
(™) on your computer—attached firmly to both the monitor and
computer?
m Is the brightness control on the monitor adjusted correctly? (On most
monitors, the brightness control is marked with the symbol ¤.)
If you see a blinking question mark on the screen, turn to “Solutions to
Common Problems With Your Computer” in Chapter 6.
