Basic PC troubleshooting

Basic PC problem #3

My monitor is black.

Solution:

1. Make sure the monitor is turned on. Try pressing the power button on the monitor again.
2. Check to see if it is in sleep mode. Wiggle the mouse around or press the enter key.
3. If the green light is not on in front, check the power cord connecting the monitor into the outlet.
4. If the green light is on, check the brightness level by using the buttons on the monitor.
5. Check the cable connection from the monitor into the computer or the equipment that links your computer to the TV monitor.
6. If you still have some problems, call your help desk.
