Troubleshooting Guide
Resolving a hardware conflict
4 Click Check Now.
Windows opens the Check Disk window.
Your hard disk seems very slow.
If you have been using your computer for some time, your files
may have become fragmented. Run Disk Defragmenter in
Windows 2000:
1 Click Start, then point to Programs.
2 Point to Accessories, then point to System Tools.
3 Click Disk Defragmenter.
Your data files are damaged or corrupted.
Refer to your software documentation for file recovery
procedures. Many software packages automatically create backup
files.
You may also be able to recover lost data by using utility software,
which is available from your network administrator.
Some programs run correctly but others do not.
This is probably a configuration problem. When a program
doesn’t run properly, refer to its documentation and check that the
hardware configuration meets its needs.
A diskette won’t go into the diskette drive.
You may already have a diskette in the drive. Make sure the drive
is empty.
You may be inserting the diskette incorrectly. Hold the diskette by
its label with the hub side facing down, and insert it so that the
metal head window cover goes into the drive first.
The metal cover or loose labels may be obstructing the path into
the drive. Carefully inspect the diskette. If the metal cover is loose,
replace the diskette. If the label is loose, replace the label and try
inserting the diskette again.
