8 Simple Solutions For
Computer Problems
Is your computer stuck and you don’t know what to do? Wait! Before
calling a computer expert or taking it to a repair shop, run through this
checklist of quick fixes to save time and money:
It won’t turn on.
Look for a loose power cord. Check at the back of
the computer, at the wall, and in the power strip. Make sure all
connections are firmly in the socket.
It loses the internet connection.
Unplug your modem’s power cord
and the wireless network router, if you have one. Wait a full minute.
Plug them back in again. Give the devices time to restart. Try to open
the internet again.
It won’t respond to keyboard or mouse clicks.
Check if the cords
attached to your device are connected fully into the computer ports.
With wireless devices, replace the battery.
It takes too long to start up.
Confirm that your anti-virus software has
been updated. When you know that you have the latest version, run a
full system scan to see if you have any viruses that need to be removed.
Your password won’t work.
Look at your keyboard to see if the
CAPS LOCK light is on. Many passwords are CaSe sensitive.
The CD or DVD drive won’t open.
Straighten a paper clip, slide it
into the small hole near the door of the drive, and push gently. The door
should open a little and you can slowly pull it open.
One program continues to freeze up.
Try updating the software. You
can usually find an option to update in the help menu. If not, visit the
software publisher’s website to see if new updates are available.
The internet is too slow.
Check to see if someone else in the house is
downloading or streaming something like a TV show or music. If they
are, just know your internet speed will return when this ends.
Last Tip: Post this list on your refrigerator at home or in the break room at
work. You may save someone else from pulling their hair out.
