Problems turning your computer on?

If you don’t see anything on your screen or you think your computer did not
start up properly, 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 of the

computer should be on. If it isn’t, press the power button, which is also on
the front panel.

m Are the keyboard and mouse cables connected correctly? (Don’t connect or

disconnect the keyboard or mouse cable while the computer is on. You
could damage your equipment. To turn off your computer, press the power
button on its front panel.)
