Troubleshooting 

This section describes how to solve common problems you may encounter when using your computer.
Many problems have simple solutions, so try these suggestions before you call Sony Customer Support. 

My computer does not start 

Check that the computer is plugged into a power source and that it is turned on. Check that the
power light is lit on the front panel of the computer. 

Confirm that a diskette is not in the diskette drive (unless you are using a bootable diskette). 

Confirm that the power cord and all cables are connected firmly, as described on the color poster.
