Computer Will Not Boot
My computer won't turn on, what should I do?!?!
Don't Panic!
There are a number of reasons why you computer might not be turning on:
- Your monitor is off or broken
- Your computer has entered sleep mode
- Your computer has come unplugged
- Your surge protector is unplugged or broken
- A fuse has blown in your house
We'll run you through a few quick steps to try and solve your problem.
- Turn you computer monitor off and on again. If you computer monitor is unresponsive it is either broken or unplugged.
- Press the space bar on your keyboard, your computer may simply be in sleep mode.
- Check all of the power cables connected to you computer/monitor, make sure they are all connected.
- Check that your surge protector is on and plugged into the wall (If you don't have a surge protector you should probably invest in one)
- Go and make sure that the fuse to your room has not blown out.
These may seem like overly simple things to check but you'd be surprised at how often a simple solution, such as listed above, will solve your problem.
If none of these tips worked, it's most likely that your computer has a more serious problem.
