Locate the Power ON/OFF normally on the front of the “Box”. After checking that all cables have been properly connected, Turn on your monitor and press once the Power on/off button.
This is called the computer is “booting up”.
IMPORTANT: do not start moving the mouse or pressing keys on the keyboard until all the “thinking” is done inside the computer. This may take between 1 to 2 minutes if the computer is new. If you see the hour glass next to the mouse arrow wait until it disappears

I have a Black SCREEN after I turned on the computer...
This could be because you forgot to turn on your monitor.
If your monitor is on and you still have a black screen:
Press and hold the power on/off button in the PC or laptop and hold it pressed for 5 seconds. You will notice the PC lights have all turned off. Wait 1 minute and try to power up again. If the screen stays black you have to ask for help. Call Carlos is one of the options...

Should I turn off the monitor when I am not using m computer?
No it is not necessary to turn off your monitor. All modern monitors have a built-in feature that sends them to “sleep” when the computer is not on.

The computer in on. It has been on and unattended for a few hours and I have a Black SCREEN
Most likely your computer has gone into either “standby” or “hibernation”.
First, touch the “space” key on the keyboard.
If nothing happens press once the Power On/Off button in the front of the PC.
