related software.

Drive does not operate  There may be a faulty cable connection. Check 

the connection to the computer and to the drive. 

Some programs run 

correctly but others do 

not 

The software or hardware configuration may be 

causing a problem. Make sure the hardware 

configuration matches your software needs. 

You cannot access the 

external 3 ½" floppy 

disk drive 

Try another floppy disk. If you can access the 

floppy disk, the original floppy disk (not the drive) 

is probably causing the problem. 
If problems persist, contact your dealer. 

Infrared devices do not 

work as expected

Check that the device is connected to an electric 

outlet. Make sure the outlet is supplying power by 

plugging in an appliance.

Make sure there is no obstruction blocking 

communication between the computer and the 

target device.
If problems persist, contact your dealer.
