3-2 Dell Latitude CP Reference and Troubleshooting Guide
Checking Connections
Loose or improperly connected cables are likely sources
of problems for your computer, external monitor, or other
peripherals (such as a printer, external keyboard, or
mouse). A quick check of all cable connections can easily
solve these problems. If a connector has two small
screws, make sure the screws are tight. In addition, check
for damaged or frayed cables.
Be sure the following items are properly connected or
installed:
•
The AC adapter and power cable
