  If the power-on indicator on your Fujitsu Desktop doesn't light up after switching it on, the issue might be with the mains voltage supply. Check if the power cable is properly plugged into both the device and a grounded mains outlet. Alternatively, the internal power supply could be overloaded. If this is the case, unplug the device, wait approximately 3 minutes, plug it back into a grounded outlet, and try switching it on again.

  If the monitor screen remains blank, first ensure the monitor is switched on. If it is, check if power saving mode is active by pressing any key or deactivating the screen saver. Also, verify the brightness control isn't set too low. Confirm that both the monitor and device power cables are securely connected to both the devices and grounded mains outlets. Finally, check that the monitor cable is properly connected to both the Fujitsu Desktop and the monitor. If problems persist, restart the system, press F8 to enter Safe Mode, and set up the monitor as described in your operating system and monitor documentation.

  If the mouse pointer is not displayed on the screen of your Fujitsu Desktop, ensure the mouse is correctly connected. Shut down the operating system properly (e.g., using Ctrl + Alt + Del), switch off the device, and check the mouse cable connection to the system unit, including any adapters or extension leads. Make sure only one mouse is connected. Then, switch the device back on. Also, verify in the BIOS Setup that the USB ports being used are enabled.

  If you can't switch off your Fujitsu Desktop using the On/Off switch due to a system crash, press and hold the On/Off switch for at least 4 seconds until the device turns off. Be aware that this action could lead to data loss, as the operating system won't shut down properly, potentially causing error messages upon the next boot.
