    Let the computer warm up to room temperature before turning it on.

    Explanation:

    The laptop has been shipped to the user's home when he were at work and found on the deck. Outside it is really cool and he don't remember how long it has been there. Then, the user open his laptop and want to know whether it is functioning properly. Instead, let the machine warm up while switching it on to room temperature.

    When a computer is still in a cold climate, they have to let it heat up to room temperature apx. 6-24 hours before switching it on. Otherwise, its heat the elements generate could cause water moisture within the laptop. That water could then harm elements of the system.
