The following questions are possible situations that may arise during
the use of your computer and each is followed by easy answers and
solutions to the situation.
Q:
I pressed the power switch but the system did not boot up.
A:
Check the LED located beside the power switch.
If the LED is not lit, no power is being applied to the system. Do any of
the following:
•
Check if the voltage selector switch located on the rear panel of
the computer is set to the correct voltage.
•
Check if the main power switch located on the rear panel of the
computer is turned ON (1). See “Turning on your computer” on
page 33 for the location of the main power switch on your
computer.
•
Check if you plugged the power cable properly into an electrical
outlet.
•
If you are using a power strip or AVR, make sure that it is plugged
in and turned on.
If the LED is lit, check the following:
•
Is a nonbootable (nonsystem) diskette in the floppy drive? If yes,
remove or replace it with a system diskette and press
Ctrl + Alt +
Del
to restart your computer.
•
The operating system files may be damaged or missing. Insert the
startup disk you created during Windows setup into the floppy
drive and press
Ctrl + Alt + Del
to restart your computer. This will
automatically diagnose your system and make necessary fixes.
However, if the diagnostic utility still reports a problem, then you
may have to insert the Recovery CD that came with your system to
restore it to its original factory default settings.
Caution:
Using the Recovery CD will erase all files previously
saved in your computer so make sure to back up your important
files before starting the recovery process. For more information
about recovering your system, refer to the Veriton 3300 online
guide.
