Troubleshooting
This chapter contains basic troubleshooting tips for your
Velocity Micro system.
Problem:
The computer, monitor, printer, and speakers are not
making any noise or light.
First, try:
• making sure the power switch on the front of the
monitor is on. Check that the power switch on back
of the monitor is switched on.
Then:
• Make sure the monitor is plugged into a functioning
surge protector or outlet.
• Adjust the brightness and contrast controls on
the front of the monitor to make sure they are not
darkened.
• Make sure the video cable is plugged into both the
system and the monitor. Tighten the thumbscrews on
the cable’s connection to the system. Your system
may have more than one video connection. If your
system has onboard video as well as a video card,
make sure your monitor is plugged into the video
cord’s input.
• Unplug the video cable and make sure the pins on
both ends are straight and not bent. Correct any
bent pins with the tip of a pen or screwdriver, then
reconnect the cable.
