Troubleshooting

PC does not power on

Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the PC and a working wall outlet. Try a different outlet if possible. Verify the power supply switch on the back of the PC (if applicable) is in the 'on' position.

Slow performance or unresponsiveness

Close unnecessary applications running in the background. Restart the computer. Check Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc) for processes consuming high CPU or memory. Ensure Windows and drivers are up to date.

No display output

Confirm the monitor is powered on and correctly connected to the PC's HDMI port. Try a different HDMI cable or monitor if available. Ensure the correct input source is selected on the monitor.
