Before you start...
5.1
Sometime during the life of your LCD-PC you might do something seems harmless, yet it
causes headaches. We have created this section for you to trouble shoot and solve the
problem when the unfortunate happens.
Attempting to troubleshoot your own LCD-PC can be as easy as a walk in the park.
However, correct mind set is very important before trying to troubleshoot. You must
keep a few things in mind:
An LCD-PC is just a collection of parts. Do not panic. Chances are that your
problem is pretty simple.
What has changed since it last worked? Sometimes, some small upgrade
that seems unrelated to the problem, yet in reality it caused the problem to
begin with.
There are also some things that you should think about:
Beta software: Remember if the software you have is beta, so it may
contain bugs. Some problems may result from it.
Viruses: Scan for viruses. Some of them can do some nasty things to your
computer.
If it is still under warranty, let the technicians of your vendor do it.
