Troubleshooting Chapter 8: Troubleshooting Overview Should you have any problems with your computer, before consulting your service representative, you may want to try to solve the problem yourself. This chapter lists some common problems and their possible solutions. This can’t anticipate every problem, but you should check here before you panic. If you don’t find the answer in these pages, make sure you have followed the instructions carefully and observed the safety precautions in the preface.
Troubleshooting Basic Hints and Tips Many of the following may seem obvious but they are often the solution to a problem when your computer appears not to be working. • Power - Is the computer actually plugged into a working electrical outlet? If plugged into a power strip, make sure it is actually working. Check the LED Power & Communication Indicators (see “LED Power & Communication Indicators” on page 2 - 3) to see the computer’s power status.
Troubleshooting Backup and General Maintenance • Always backup your important data, and keep copies of your OS and programs safe, but close to hand. Don’t forget to note the serial numbers if you are storing them out of their original cases, e.g. in a CD wallet. • Run maintenance programs on your hard disk and OS as often as you can. You may schedule these programs to run at times when you are not using your computer.
Troubleshooting Viruses • Install an Anti-Virus program and keep the definitions file (the file which tells your program which viruses to look for) up to date. New computer viruses are discovered daily, and some of them may seriously harm your computer and cause you to lose data. Anti-Virus programs are commercially available and the definitions file updates are usually downloadable directly from the internet. • Be careful when opening e-mail from sources you don’t know.
Troubleshooting Upgrading and Adding New Hardware/Software • Do not be tempted to make changes to your Windows Registry unless you are very sure of what you are doing, otherwise you will risk severely damaging your system. • Don’t open your computer or undertake any repair or upgrade work if you are not comfortable with what you are doing. • Read the documentation.
Troubleshooting • Don’t over complicate things. The less you have to deal with then the easier the source of the problem may be found; Example - if your computer has many devices plugged into its ports, and a number of programs running, then it will be difficult to determine the cause of a problem. Try disconnecting all of the devices and restarting the computer with all the peripheral devices unplugged.
Troubleshooting Problems & Possible Solutions Power Problem Possible Cause - Solution You turned on the power but it doesn’t work. Battery missing / incorrectly installed. Check the battery bay, make sure the battery is present and seated properly (the design of the battery only allows it to go in one way). Make sure there’s nothing interfering with the battery contacts. The Battery LED power indicator , is blinking orange. Low Battery. Plug in the AC power source.
Troubleshooting Problem Possible Cause - Solution The computer feels too hot. Make sure the computer is properly ventilated and the vents/fan intakes are not blocked. If this doesn’t cool it down, put the system into Hibernate mode or turn it off for an hour. Make sure the computer isn’t sitting on a thermal surface (see “Overheating” on page 1 19). Make sure you’re using the correct adapter.
Troubleshooting Problem Possible Cause - Solution No image appears on the external monitor I have plugged in and powered on. You haven’t installed the video driver and configured it appropriately from the Control Panel. See “Video (WinXP)” on page 4 - 8 for instructions on installing the driver, and see “NVIDIA Display Properties” on page 3 - 3 for instructions on configuring the video driver. Boot Password Problem You forget password.
Troubleshooting Audio & CD Device 8 Problem Possible Cause - Solution The sound cannot be heard or the volume is very low. The volume might be set too low. Check the volume control in the Volume Control Panel in the Windows taskbar, or use the key combination Fn + F11 and F12 (see “Function Keys and Numeric Keypad” on page 2 - 14) to adjust. The compact disc cannot be read. The compact disc is dirty. Clean it with a CD-ROM cleaner kit.
Troubleshooting Keyboard Problem Possible Cause - Solution Unwelcome numbers appear when typing. If the LED is lit, then Num Lock is turned ON. Check that Padlock mode is not enabled (see “Numeric Keypad” on page 2 - 15). Other Keyboards If your keyboard is damaged or you just want to make a change, you can use any standard USB keyboard. The system will detect and enable it automatically. However special functions/hot keys unique to the system’s regular keyboard may not work.
Troubleshooting Modules Problem Possible Cause - Solution The Wireless LAN/ Bluetooth module(s) cannot be detected. The module(s) are off. Check the LED indicator to see if the WLAN module is ON/OFF (see “LED Status Indicators” on page 2 - 2). Check the “WLAN/Bluetooth Toggle Power Order” on page 7 - 2 for the power status of both the WLAN and Bluetooth modules. If the indicator(s) is/are off, then press the the modules.
