Problems when you turn on the computer

These problems may occur when you turn on the power.

The computer will not start.

Make sure you attached the AC adaptor and power 
cord/cable properly.

Press and hold the power button for at least 10 seconds.

Check that the wall outlet is working by plugging in another 
device, such as a lamp.

Verify that the computer is on by looking at the ON/OFF 
indicator. If the indicator is glowing white, the computer is 
on. Also, try turning the computer off and then on.

Verify that the computer is receiving power from the external 
power source by looking at the ON/OFF light. If the indicator 
is glowing, the computer is connected to a live external 
power source.
