Before you call

 

  • Identify your power user or designated point of contact for your site.

  • Have you attempted to REBOOT your workstation? Many problems can be resolved by closing all programs, shutting down and powering off your workstation (use the "shut down" option under the "start" button menu) and then powering up again.

  • If your computer is frozen, press the CTRL, ALT, DEL buttons simultaneously. Select 'Task List,' then highlight all programs that are NOT RESPONDING. Press END TASK button to close each highlighted task. This may unfreeze your workstation to allow for a normal shut down.

  • If a frozen workstation will not respond then a cold boot is required. Power off the CPU wait 10 minutes and power back up.

  • While you are waiting, check the connections in the back of your CPU. Make sure they are securely connected to the PC and port end (network connection) and that the power plug is secure in the outlet.

  • Before calling the Help Desk, check to see if anyone else in your immediate area is having the same problem you are experiencing. If so, have they already called the Help Desk to report it? Always be sure to share information and "fixes" with others in your area.

Reporting Hardware Problems

 

  • Write down the manufacturer, model type (m/t) and serial number (s/n) of each piece of computer hardware (including printers and scanners) that you are responsible for. Remember that the CPU and the monitor are separate pieces of hardware (with the exceptions of some Macintosh models and laptops) which have separate model type and serial numbers.

  • Keep this information handy. A notebook is much easier to check than having to crawl under your desk or trying to peek behind your printer when you are in a hurry.

  • When you suspect a hardware problem and need to call it in, have your notebook handy. You will be asked for the following

  • Type of equipment (CPU, monitor, hard drive, printer, scanner, etc.)

  • Manufacturer, model type and serial number

  • Description of the problem i.e.: (squiggly lines on the monitor, a "clunking" sound in the printer).

  • Physical location of machine at the site. Examples: nurse's office, rm. 202 or main office, etc
