TROUBLESHOOTING
There may be occasions when you encounter
simple setup or operating problems that you can
solve on the spot, or problems with peripheral
devices that can be solved by replacing the
device. The information in this section helps you
isolate and resolve some of these straightforward
issues and identify failures that require service.
Identifying the Problem
If you encounter a problem, go through the
following procedure before pursuing complex
troubleshooting:
1. Turn off your LifeBook notebook.
2. Make sure the AC adapter is plugged into
your LifeBook notebook and to an active AC
power source.
3. Make sure that any card installed in the PC
Card slot is seated properly. You can also
remove the card from the slot, thus
eliminating it as a possible cause of failure.
4. Make sure that any devices connected to the
external connectors are plugged in properly.
You can also disconnect such devices, thus
eliminating them as possible causes of
failure.
5. Turn on your LifeBook notebook. Make sure
it has been off at least 10 seconds before
you turn it on.
6. Go through the boot sequence.
7. If the problem has not been resolved, refer
to the Troubleshooting Table that follows for
more detailed troubleshooting information.
If you keep notes about what you have
tried, your support representative may be
able to help you more quickly by giving
additional suggestions over the phone.
Do not return a failed LifeBook notebook
to your supplier until you have talked to a
support representative.
8. If you have tried the solutions suggested in
the Troubleshooting Table without success,
contact your local support representative.
Before you place the call, you should have the
following information ready so that the customer
support representative can provide you with the
fastest possible solution:
• Product name
• Product configuration number
• Product serial number
• Purchase date
• Conditions under which the problem occurred
• Any error messages that have occurred
• Hardware configuration
• Type of device connected, if any
See the Configuration Label on the bottom of your
LifeBook notebook for configuration and serial
numbers.
