Troubleshooting
Laptop won't turn on
Ensure the AC adapter is securely connected to both the laptop and a working power outlet. Try a different power outlet. If using a USB-C charger, confirm it meets the required wattage (68W-100W).
Slow performance or stuttering
Close unnecessary applications and browser tabs. Check Task Manager (`Ctrl + Shift + Esc`) for resource-heavy processes. Ensure the laptop is not overheating; check vents for blockages and consider using the Aerodynamic IceBlades cooling system features.
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connection issues
Restart the laptop and your router. Ensure Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are enabled in Windows settings. Update the network drivers through Device Manager or the ASUS support website.
Webcam not working
Ensure the physical privacy shutter is open. Check if the camera is enabled in Windows settings and granted permissions to applications. Try restarting the laptop.
Screen display issues (flickering, wrong colors)
Update your display drivers. Check the screen's brightness and color settings. If flickering persists, check for physical damage or contact support.
