Problem The monitor doesn't work, even though the PC appears to. The keyboard Print button doesn't work. I cannot remove a CD or DVD disc. I want to remove icons from the desktop. Solution Check the connection of the power cord into the monitor. Make sure the monitor is turned on - it has its own power button. Make sure the monitor power cord is plugged into a grounded outlet. Check to see whether the outlet works by plugging another item into it. (If the light on the front of the monitor is lit, the monitor is getting power.) Check the cable connection between the monitor and the PC. The cable connectors must be pushed in all the way. Adjust the brightness and contrast controls on the monitor. If you have more than one display device (CRT monitor, flat panel monitor, TV, etc.) connected to the PC, change where the desktop appears by pressing Alt+F5. Some programs do not recognize the Print button. You cannot remove a CD or DVD disc after you have turned off the PC. Turn on the PC and press the Eject button to extend the tray. You can remove most desktop icons from your display by either deleting them or moving them to an unused icons folder. Refer to "Removing desktop icons" on page 109. 88 HP Pavilion home PC
