the display may not be responding.

Press a key on the keyboard, move the

connected mouse or a finger on the touch

pad, or press the power button to resume

normal operation.
If the display is not responding, press the

power button until the computer turns off

and then turn it back on.
If the problem persists, contact Dell (see

“Contacting Dell” on page 70).

blocking other signals. Some possible causes of

interference are:

Too many devices connected to a power strip.

Multiple power strips connected to the same

electrical outlet.

Memory Problems

“Contacting Dell” on page 70).
