Determining Problem Causes

To facilitate troubleshooting when encountering problems while operating the
computer, it is important to find out if the cause is software-related or hardware-
related. It is suggested that you record the observations of events immediately prior
to and during the time you encounter the problem.
WARNING : For your safety, never remove the PC's cover without first
removing the power cord and any connection to a
telecommunication network. Always replace the cover back
before switching on again.
To avoid electric shock, do not open the power supply. There
are no user-serviceable parts inside.
If the problem is software-related, consult the software manual of the application
you are using. If the problem is hardware-related, it may be due to improper
installation and/or incorrect configuration. If it is due to improper installation, then
any or a combination of the following corrective procedures should solve the
problem:
Check the installation or connection to see if it is correctly done or firmly
in place.
Check if the installation calls for a change in jumper settings or DIP
switch settings.
Read the document accompanying the hardware option you installed for
any special instructions or troubleshooting actions.
