CHECK THE POWER LIGHT— When the power light is lit or blinking, the
computer has power. If the power light is blinking, the computer is in standby
mode—press a key on the keyboard or move the mouse. If the power light is off,
the computer is either not turned on or is not receiving electrical power.
TEST THE ELECTRICAL OUTLET— Ensure that the electrical outlet is working
by testing it with another device, such as a lamp.
