What should I do if my workstation won't start or has no video?

First, check that the workstation and monitor are plugged into working electrical outlets and turned on with their power lights on. Check cable connections for loose or incorrect connections, turn up monitor brightness/contrast, and press and hold any key to verify the keyboard is operating. If the system remains in sleep mode, hold the power button for at least four seconds to shut it down, then press it again to restart.
