Troubleshooting
The Laptop is Not Turning On
- The battery may be fully depleted. Charge the laptop for at least an hour before attempting to turn it back on.
- Observe whether any indicators or internal components, such as fans, turn on during the process.
Note: If the laptop is stored for an extended period, it is recommended to charge it periodically to maintain battery health. Batteries naturally deteriorate over time and may lose capacity or fail entirely.
The Laptop is Not Charging

- Restart your modem and router (or both if you have separate units).
- Reconnect any range extenders being used.
- Restart the laptop.
- Move the laptop closer to the modem/router.
- Ensure the Wi-Fi password is entered correctly.
- If the laptop connects to Wi-Fi but the connection is slow or weak, disconnect and reconnect to the network.
The Laptop Screen Becomes Dark When the Power Adaptor is Unplugged
This will be occurring due to your power plan settings. Go to the Control Panel and change your power plan settings to allow the screen to remain on when the laptop is not charging/unplugged.

- Use a password reset disc via USB.
