Why won’t my computer turn on?

• A computer may not turn on for multiple reasons, but it is always important to start with verifying that the computer has power and is plugged into the power strip or wall socket completely. If you are using a power strip, check to see if the power strip is receiving power or in some designs, the power strip may need to be reset.

If you are are still unable to log in, IT may need to reset your password.
