Sometimes when using a computer, some users get irritated when their computers get hang, get slow and sometimes get black-out (the monitor suddenly turned to black). In solution this problem, I would like to share some of troubleshooting methods that you can apply when it comes to computer problems.

1.     The computer or laptop does not open or boot.

·         Check the power plug of your computer, maybe it is loose.

·         Check the voltage of your computer if it fits with the electric voltage of your AVR or IPS.

·         Check your operating system boot manager to see if the required system files are stored on your hard disk.

2.    The mouse and the keyboard are not working.

·         Check the peripheral’s connection to your computer if it is correctly connect to your computer.

·         Check if the peripherals are truly working.

3.    The printer is not printing a document.

·         Make sure that your printer is plugged in.

·         Check if the printer is installed to your computer.

·         Check if you are using tour printer as a default printer.

·         Check the connections between your computer and printer.

·         Make sure that your printer is working properly.

4.    The monitor gets blacked out.

·         Restart your computer.

·         Check if your laptop is battery empty.

·         Check the plugged of the monitor.
