Solving Problems
Follow these tips when you troubleshoot your computer:
•
If you added or removed a part before the problem started, review the installation procedures and
ensure that the part is correctly installed.
•
If a peripheral device does not work, ensure that the device is properly connected.
•
If an error message appears on the screen, write down the exact message. This message may help
support personnel diagnose and fix the problem(s).
•
If an error message occurs in a program, see the program’s documentation.
