Troubleshooting procedure

Use the following procedure as a starting point for diagnosing problems you are experiencing with your
computer:

1. Verify that the cables for all attached devices are connected correctly and securely.

2. Verify that all attached devices that require ac power are connected to properly grounded, functioning

electrical outlets.

3. Verify that all attached devices are enabled in the BIOS settings of your computer. For more information

about accessing and changing the BIOS settings, refer to your Chapter 6 “Using the Setup Utility
program” on page 51

4. Go to the “Troubleshooting” on page 35 and follow the instructions for the type of problem you are

experiencing. If the Troubleshooting information does not help you resolve a problem, continue with the
next step.

5. Try using a previously captured configuration to see if a recent change to hardware or software settings

has caused a problem. Before restoring a previous configuration, capture your current configuration in
case the older configuration settings do not solve the problem or have adverse affects. To restore a
captured configuration, click Start Control Panel System and Security System System
Protection

virus, remove the virus.
