Basic Computer Troubleshooting
Don't panic.Relax. Take a breath.
Many computer problems appear more
serious than they really are. So if you
panic, your mind will not function
properly.

Make sure there really is
a problemYou cannot
troubleshoot if
there is no
problem at all.Can't start your computer? Check the basics.
Examine the cables, connectors, and
power cords to make sure they're
plugged in securely. Often times a
loose cable or connector is the cause of the problem

Check to see if your monitor is
on. Sounds silly, but it has
solved my own problem more
than once.

Error Messages - Write
them down.
What tipped you off to the problem? Sometimes it's
an error code or message displayed on screen. Be sure
to write it down — it may describe the problem and
how serious it is. Be sure to document the exact
wording of any error messages. This can make the job
of the Help Desk much faster.

Think about what changed recently on your
computer.
Try to pinpoint when the trouble first started. Did
the problem coincide with any recent changes?
Did you change any settings? If
you did you might want to change
them back the way they were.

Any peripherals been added or removed
recently (such as a printer or external Memory
Card reader?)
Has anyone else been using your computer
recently?
Have downloaded anything off the
Web? File sharing and free MP3’s are an easy
way to get a virus on your machine.

The computer is on but…Everything on the screen is frozen and the keyboard and mouse are not responding
Try tapping on the Num Lock key. It’s located on
the right-hand side of the keyboard above the number 7.
While tapping the Num Lock key, notice whether or not
the Num Lock light goes on and off. If it doesn’t, the
computer is completely locked up.

You’ll have to Restart the computer. If the
light does go off and on, wait a minute before
giving up hope. It may come back to life on its
own.
Pressing Alt + F4
If a software program stops working or
freezes up, try pressing the ALT+F4 keys to close the window that you’re currently working in.

The “Blue Screen” has
appeared.
The dreaded “Blue Screen of Death”. There’s
not a lot to be done except to restart the
machine. If it keeps occurring, this is an
indication of a major problem with the computer.

Restarting can do wonders.
Don’t just pull the plug!A simple reboot may clear up the problem. Go to the
Start Menu and select Shutdown.
Didn't work? It's time to try a forced reboot — with,
unfortunately, no way to save your work —
by pressing the keys CTRL-ALT-DEL simultaneously twice
in a row.
If that didn't work, you have no choice: you have to turn the computer off manually with the power switch.
