Computer does not 
boot from hard disk 
drive

Check to see whether that is a floppy diskette in 
the floppy diskette drive or a CD-ROM/DVD-
ROM in the optical disc drive - if so remove it and 
try to start the computer again. 

If this has no effect, check the Boot Priority 
setting within the TOSHIBA HW Setup utility - 
please refer to the 

 section in 

Chapter 7, 

, for further information.

Please refer to your operating system 
documentation in order to determine whether 
there is a problem with any of the operating 
system files or settings.

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. If you are still unable to 
resolve the problem, contact your reseller, dealer 
or service provider.
