First, make sure your computer is plugged in. Then make sure your monitor is plugged in and turned on. Next, we always recommend that if you are using a ups or surge strip try plugging directly into the wall to see if it will turn on. If it still does not work you will need to check the back of your computer to be sure the switch on the power supply is on. Finally, we would ask for you to bring it in to make sure no components failed.

It depends on what the issue is but we can always try a remote first.
