The Windows
® 
operating system is not 
working
Once you are familiar with the desktop and used to the way 
the operating system responds to your work routine, you can 
easily detect if the operating system is not working correctly. 
For example:
The operating system fails to start after the 
Starting 
Windows  XP 
message appears.
The operating system takes a long time to start.
The operating system responds differently from the 
normal routine.
The screen does not look right.
Unless a hardware device has failed, problems usually occur 
when you change the system in some way such as installing a 
new program or adding a device.
If you experience any of these problems, use the options in 
the Startup menu to fix the problem.
