  • The projector has an on-screen help system you can use to solve this problem; see Using On-Screen Help. If the on-screen help does not solve the problem, check the following:
    • Make sure the cables are correctly connected. See Setting Up the Projector.
    • Try restarting your computer.
    • Make sure the power to your computer or video equipment is turned on.
