Common Problems and Solutions
The monitor is blank.
•
Confirm that the system is not in Stand-by mode by pressing any key on the
keyboard. Wait and see if the PC wakes up.
Wrong Date and Time:
•
Double-click the clock on the taskbar and correct the date and time.
After a system restart a new drive letter is assigned to the cards in the card
slots.
•
This can happen, when the card reader re-initializes the slots during a sys-
tem start. New IDs might be assigned, which can lead to new drive letters for
some cards.
No data can be accessed from the optical drive.
•
Check whether the disc is inserted correctly.
•
Is the optical drive displayed in Windows
®
Explorer? If so, insert another disc
to test.
The mouse does not work.
•
Check the cable.
Not enough space on the hard disc drive.
•
Audio or video recordings need a great deal of memory (between 1 and 2
GB/hour). Safeguard files that you do not need on external media, such as
DVD/CD-Rs or hard drives.
The PC does not start up.
•
If all cable connections are correct, then try to reset the power supply of the
PC. Set the power switch at the rear of the PC to position “O” (OFF). Then
press the switch at the front of the PC for 10 seconds. Wait 5 more seconds
and then restart the PC.
