Troubleshooting
Laptop will not power on
Ensure the AC adapter is securely connected to both the laptop and a working power outlet. Try a different outlet. If the issue persists, perform a hard reset by holding the power button for 15-20 seconds.
Poor Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connection
Restart your router and modem. Ensure Wi-Fi and Bluetooth are enabled in Windows settings. Update the Wi-Fi and Bluetooth drivers through Samsung Settings or Device Manager. Check if the Wi-Fi 6E band is supported by your router.
Display shows distorted or flickering images
Update the Intel Iris Xe Graphics driver. Ensure the display cable (if using an external monitor) is securely connected. Try adjusting the screen resolution in Windows display settings.
Laptop is running slow
Close unnecessary applications running in the background. Check Task Manager for resource-heavy processes. Ensure sufficient free storage space on the SSD. Restart the laptop.
