Troubleshooting

PC does not power on.

Ensure the power cable is securely connected to both the PC and a working wall outlet. Check if the power supply switch on the back of the PC is in the 'On' position (usually marked 'I'). Try a different power outlet.

No display on monitor.

Verify that the monitor cable is securely connected to both the PC's video output port (HDMI, DisplayPort, VGA) and the monitor. Ensure the monitor is powered on and set to the correct input source. Try a different cable or monitor if possible.

Slow performance or freezing.

Restart the PC. Close unnecessary applications. Check Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc) for resource-hungry processes. Ensure sufficient free space on the SSD. Run a virus scan. Consider upgrading RAM if consistently maxing out memory usage.

Cannot connect to the internet via Ethernet.

Check that the Ethernet cable is securely plugged into both the PC and the router/switch. Ensure the network adapter is enabled in Windows settings. Restart your router and the PC. Check if the LAN port lights are active.

USB devices not recognized.

Try connecting the device to a different USB port. Restart the PC. Ensure the USB device drivers are installed correctly. Check Device Manager for any errors related to USB controllers.
