The following is a list of possible situations that may arise during the use of your
computer. Easy solutions are provided for each one.
I turned on the power, but the computer does not start or boot up.
Check if power is being supplied to the computer (if your computer has a power indicator,
it will be off); if there is no power, check the following:
• If you are using on the battery, it may be low and unable to power the computer.
Connect the AC adapter to recharge the battery pack. You may need to wait a few
minutes before trying to turn your computer on again.
• Make sure that the AC adapter is properly plugged into the computer and to the power
outlet.
If power is being supplied to the computer, check the following:
• Is a disc in the optical drive? Remove it and press Ctrl + Alt + Del to restart the
system.
• Do you have a USB storage device (USB drive or smartphone) plugged into your
computer? Unplug it and press Ctrl + Alt + Del to restart the system.
Nothing appears on the screen.
The computer's power management system automatically blanks the screen to save
power. Press any key to turn the display back on.
If pressing a key does not turn the display back on, three things might be the cause:
• The brightness level might be too low. Use the Brightness up hotkey to adjust the
brightness level.
• The display device might be set to an external monitor. Press the display toggle hotkey
to toggle the display back to the computer.
• The computer may be in Sleep or Hibernate mode (if there is a power LED, it will flash).
Press and release the power button to resume.
