Solving System Problems 8-1
Solving System
Problems
Your system has a built-in checking program that
automatically tests its components when you turn the
system unit power on. If there is a problem, the system
displays an error message. If this happens, follow any
instructions on the screen.
If screen messages do not help or an error message does not
appear, use the information in this chapter to determine and
solve the problem. The problem is often one that you can
solve yourself.
See the following sections in this chapter for help:
“Problem Checklist”
See this section first to determine the cause of your
problem.
“Solutions to Common Problems”
Refer to this section to solve common minor problems.
“Diagnostic Diskette”
If your system boots, use the diagnostic diskette to
determine and resolve the problem.
“Getting Help”
See this section for the help available to you for
information about your computer and for help when you
cannot solve a problem yourself. Select a topic for help
on solving problems that you may have with your
system.
