Troubleshooting

This chapter contains information about troubleshooting common problems associated with the 
tablet.

General Information

The following procedures are guides for troubleshooting computer problems. The step by step 
procedures are designed to be performed as described.

 NOTE:

The diagnostic tests are intended to test only Acer products. Non-Acer products, prototype 
cards, or modified options can give false errors and invalid system responses.

1.

Obtain as much detail as possible about the problem.

2.

If possible, verify the symptoms by re-creating the failure through diagnostic tests or by 
repeating the operation that led to the problem.

3.

Use Table 4-1 with the verified symptom(s) to determine the solution.

4.

If the issue is still not resolved, see
