Troubleshooting
Why does the System Properties window display a slower CPU speed than the
maximum?
This is normal. Because the computer's CPU utilizes a type of CPU speed controlling technology for power conservation
purposes, System Properties may display the CPU's current speed instead of the maximum speed.
What should I do if a message appears and Windows does not start when I start my
computer?
If you enter a wrong password three times consecutively, the Input Onetime Password or System Disabled message
appears and Windows does not start. Press the power button for more than four seconds to check that the power indicator
goes off. Wait for 10 or 15 seconds, then restart the computer and enter the correct password. When entering the password,
check that the Num lock indicator and Caps lock indicator are off. If any are lit, press the Num Lk key or the Caps Lock key
to turn off the indicator before entering the password.
What should I do if my game software does not work or it keeps crashing?

not guaranteed.
