Solving Software Problems
Most software problems occur as a result of the following:
■
The application was not installed or configured correctly.
■
There is insufficient memory available to run the application.
■
There is a conflict between applications.
■
Be sure that all the needed device drivers have been installed.
■
If you have installed an operating system other than the
factory-installed operating system, check to be sure it is
supported on your system.
Where available, run the Compaq Configuration Record Utility to
determine if any changes have been made to the software which may
be causing a problem. See the
Desktop Management Guide
on the
Documentation Library
CD for more information.
