- Pulizia esterna: Pulire le superfici esterne con un panno morbido, damp stoffa. Evitare detergenti abrasivi.
- Pulizia interna: With the system powered off and unplugged, use compressed air to remove dust from internal components and fans.
7. Risoluzione Dei Problemi
- Il sistema non si accende:
- Assicurarsi che il cavo di alimentazione sia collegato saldamente all'alimentatore e alla presa a muro.
- Check that the PSU switch is in the "ON" position.
- Verify all front panel connectors (especially the Power Switch) are correctly attached to the motherboard.
- Confirm the 24-pin ATX and 8-pin CPU power cables are securely connected to the motherboard.
- Le ventole non girano / RGB non si accende:
- Check that all fan power cables are securely connected to the fan hub or motherboard headers.
