Modem/communications 
errors

1. Make sure the telephone cord is securely connected. 

Your 

Setup Poster shows how the cord should be 

connected.

2. Make sure the telephone line works by plugging a 

working telephone into the same telephone outlet that 
the computer was plugged into. Then make sure you 
can place a call.

3. Make sure your modem cord is connected to an analog 

telephone line. For additional help, see ”Setting up 
communications” on page 4-8.

4. Make sure you are calling the correct number, and that 

you are using the correct communications settings. For 
additional help, see the user's guide for your 
communications software.

5. Make sure no one is using the telephone while you are 

communicating with another computer.

6. If some communications programs work but others do 

not, there may be a configuration problem. For 
additional help, see the user's guide for your 
communications software.

7. Make sure the modem adapter card is installed 

correctly. For instructions on installing adapter cards in 
the system unit, see ”Adding and removing adapter 
cards” on page 8-4.

8. If you have Call Waiting feature on your phone, make 

sure it is disabled.

When the computer is 
turned on, the message 
“Insert a system diskette 
and press Enter to reboot” 
appears

1. Choose BIOS Features Setup from the Configuration/

Setup Utility menu, and make sure that the Boot 
Sequence is set correctly.

2. Make sure the drive power and signal cables are 

securely attached to the back of the hard disk drive. 
For instructions on working in the system unit, see 
”Removing and adding drives” on page 8-6.

3. Insert the 

Recovery and Diagnostics CD-ROM into the 

CD-ROM drive, and restart the computer. Follow the 
instructions on your screen to restore the operating 
system files to your computer's hard disk.
