Troubleshooting

PC does not power on

Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the PC and a functioning wall outlet. Check the switch on the power supply unit at the rear of the PC is in the 'on' position (|).

No display output

Verify the monitor cable is plugged into the graphics card ports (usually lower down on the rear panel), not the motherboard ports. Ensure the monitor is powered on and set to the correct input source.

System is running slow or stuttering during games

Close unnecessary background applications. Ensure graphics drivers are up to date. Check that the PC is not overheating by monitoring temperatures using software like HWMonitor. Ensure the system is running on its high-performance power plan in Windows.

Wi-Fi or Bluetooth not working

Ensure the Wi-Fi/Bluetooth adapter is enabled in Windows settings and Device Manager. Check that the antenna is properly connected to the adapter on the rear of the PC. Reinstall or update the drivers from the Intel website if necessary.
