Helpful hints
If you encounter a problem with the workstation, monitor, or software, the following general suggestions
might help you isolate and focus on the problem before taking further action.
At startup
●
Verify that the workstation and monitor are plugged into a working electrical outlet.
●
Remove all optical discs and USB drive keys from the drives before powering on the workstation.
●
Verify that the workstation is turned on and the power light is on.
●
If you have installed an operating system other than the factory-installed operating system, check to be
sure that it is supported on your system, go to
http://www.hp.com/go/quickspecs
.
●
Verify that the monitor is turned on and the power light is on.
●
Turn up the brightness and contrast controls of the monitor if the monitor is dim.
●
If the workstation has multiple video sources and only a single monitor, the monitor must be connected
to the source selected as the primary VGA adapter. During startup, the other monitor connectors are
disabled; if the monitor is connected to one of these ports, it will not function after Power-on Self Test
(POST). You can select the default VGA source in Computer Setup (f10) Utility.
