Troubleshooting

■

Do you hear any beeps, if so how many, are they long or short and are 

they high pitched or low pitched? In addition, is the computer making 

any unusual noises? Write down what you hear.

Record your observations so you can describe them in detail to your 

reseller, dealer or service provider.

This section discusses problems caused by your computer’s hardware or 

attached peripherals. Basic problems may occur in the following areas:

The problems may be caused by your software or disk. If you 

cannot load a software package, the media may be damaged 

or the program might be corrupted - in these instances try 

loading another copy of the software if possible.
If an error message appears while you are using a software 

package you should refer to the documentation supplied with 

it as this will usually include a problem solving section or a 

summary of error messages.
Next, you should check any error messages against the 

operating system documentation.

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.
