CompTIA A+ Core 1 (220-1001) — Question 137
A technician has been asked to fix a problem with a projector. The projector lamp turns off for brief periods during a demonstration. After the technician replaced the lamp, the problem continued with an added message that appears just before the lamp turns off. Which of the following MOST likely need to be performed?
(Choose two.)
Answer options
- A. Reset the lamp life counter
- B. Replace the cooling fan
- C. Adjust the brightness
- D. Update the laptop video driver
- E. Install a higher lumen lamp
- F. Change the video resolution
Correct answer: A, B
Explanation
Resetting the lamp life counter is necessary since a new lamp may still reflect an old usage count, causing the projector to turn off. Additionally, replacing the cooling fan is crucial because overheating can cause the lamp to shut down, and a malfunctioning fan would directly contribute to this issue. The other options do not address the underlying problems associated with the lamp turning off.
