Troubleshooting
CAUTION: To guard against the likelihood of
electric shock, laceration by moving fan
blades, or other expected injuries, always
unplug your computer from the electrical
outlet before opening the cover.
CAUTION: Before you begin any of the
procedures in this section, follow the safety
instructions that shipped with your
computer.
Tools
Power Lights
The power-button light located on the front of the
computer turns on and blinks or remains solid to
indicate different states:
•
If the power light is off, the computer is
either turned off or is not receiving power.
•
If the power light is steady blue and the
computer is not responding, ensure that the
display is connected and powered on.
•
If the power light is blinking blue (
Vostro™
A100 only
), the computer is in standby mode.
Press a key on the keyboard, move the
mouse, or press the power button to resume
normal operation.
Beep Codes
Your computer might emit a series of beeps during
start-up if the monitor cannot display errors or
problems. This series of beeps, called a beep code,
identifies a problem. One possible beep code
consists of repetitive three short beeps. This beep
code tells you that the computer encountered a
possible system board failure.
