There is a problem with a computer or projector in a classroom. What do I do?

What to do if a computer or A/V equipment is not working in a classroom
The best support is to be pro-active. Test your equipment before your first lecture, and make sure you know how to use the equipment in the room. If you experience a problem during class, don't leave it for the next person, call the Help Desk (262-8111), e-mail us (shc@geography.wisc.edu), or fill out a help desk ticket to let us know about the problem right away.
