• If you’ve tried to resolve the problem and your application still doesn’t respond, you may need to restart your
computer as described below.

If the computer does not restart, the keyboard may be locked up. Reset the computer by holding down the
Power button for at least 5 seconds and then releasing the button.
• The data on the hard disk could be corrupted. Run SCANDISK.
• Windows is out of memory/resources. Exit Windows and restart Windows.
Communications programs such as HyperTerminal, or Procomm Plus don’t seem to work
or they lock Windows
• When you first try to use HyperTerminal or similar application, the system responds with a message asking if
you want to install the modem. Answer “Yes” to this question and follow the instructions on the screen to
install it.
• Verify with your company that your computer has an internal modem installed.
