Chapter 6 Troubleshooting TOSHIBA has designed this computer for durability, however, should problems occur you are able to use the procedures detailed in this chapter to help determine the cause. All users should become familiar with this chapter as knowing what might go wrong can help prevent problems from occurring in the first place.
Check all cables to ensure they are correctly and firmly attached to the computer - loose cables can cause signal errors. Inspect all connecting cables for loose wires and all connectors for loose pins. Check that your disc media is correctly loaded Always try to make detailed notes of your observations and keep them in a permanent error log - this will help you to describe your problems to TOSHIBA Support. In addition, if a problem recurs, the log you have made will help to identify the problem faster.
Hardware If you cannot find a software problem, you should then check the setup and configuration of your hardware. First run through the items in the preliminary checklist as described previously then, if you still cannot correct the problem, try to identify the source - the next section provides checklists for individual components and peripherals.
Verify that the computer is on by looking at the Power indicator. If the indicator is glowing, the computer is on. Also, try turning the computer off and then on. If you are using an AC adaptor, verify that the computer is receiving power from the external power source by looking at the DC IN/Battery indicator. If the indicator is glowing, the computer is connected to a live external power source.
Power Keyboard Internal display panel Hard Disk Drive Memory Media Card Pointing Device USB device Sound system External monitor Wireless LAN Bluetooth Power When the computer is not plugged into an AC power outlet, the battery pack is the primary power source. Your computer also has Real Time Clock (RTC) function. All of the power resources are interrelated with anyone having the ability to produce apparent power problems.
Battery If you suspect a problem with the battery, you should check the status of the DC IN/Battery indicator. Problem Procedure Battery doesn’t power the computer The battery may be discharged - connect the AC adaptor to recharge the battery. Battery doesn’t If the battery is completely discharged, it will not charge when the AC begin charging immediately, in these instances you adaptor is attached. should wait a few minutes before trying again.
Problem Procedure Output to screen is garbled Please refer to your software's documentation to ensure that it is not remapping the keyboard in any way (remapping involves changing or reassigning the function of each key). If you are still unable to use the keyboard, you should contact TOSHIBA Support. Internal display panel Apparent computer's display panel problems may be related to the computer's setup and configuration.
Problem Procedure Slow performance The files on the Hard Disk Drive may be fragmented - in this instance you should run the disk Defragmentation utility to check the condition of your files and the Hard Disk Drive. Please refer to the operating system's documentation or online Help File for further information on operating and using the Defragmentation utility. As a last resort you should reformat the Hard Disk Drive and then reload the operating system and all other files and data.

Double-tapping (Touch Pad) does not work In this instance, you should initially try changing the double-click speed setting within the Mouse Control utility. 1. 2. 3.
USB mouse Problem Procedure On-screen pointer does not respond to mouse operation In this instance the system might be busy - Try moving the mouse again after waiting a short while. Remove the mouse from the computer and then reconnect it to a free USB port in order to ensure it is firmly attached. Double-clicking does In this instance, you should initially try changing not work the double-click speed setting within the Mouse Control utility. 1. 2. 3.
Problem Procedure USB device does not Remove the USB device from the computer and work then reconnect it to a free port in order to ensure it is firmly attached. Ensure that any required USB device drivers are properly installed - to achieve this you should refer to both the device documentation and the operating system documentation. Sleep and Charge function For more information and settings, please refer to the USB Sleep and Charge section.
Problem Procedure External devices connected to the compatible ports do not work when connected to a compatible port. Some external devices may not work when connected to a compatible port if the Sleep and Charge function is enabled. The "USB Wakeup function" does not work. When Sleep and Charge function is enabled, the "USB WakeUp" function does not work for ports that support the Sleep and Charge function. Reconnect the external device after turning the computer ON.
External monitor Please also refer to Operating Basics, and to the documentation supplied with your monitor for further information. Problem Procedure Monitor does not turn on After confirming that the monitor's power switch is on, you should check the connections to make sure that the power cord/adaptor is firmly connected to the monitor and to a working power outlet. No display Try adjusting the contrast and brightness controls on the external monitor.
Wireless LAN Problem Procedure Cannot access Wireless LAN Make sure the computer's Wireless communication function is on. If problems persist, contact your LAN administrator. Bluetooth Problem Procedure Cannot access Bluetooth device Check to ensure the computer's Wireless Communication function is on. Check to ensure the Bluetooth Manager application is running on the computer and that power to the external Bluetooth device is turned on.
