Q&A
This chapter tells you what to do in case your computer is not working properly.
However, if a more serious problem arises, contact your dealer or the technical
support center for assistance
The following questions are possible situations that may arise during the use of
your computer and each is followed by easy answers and solutions to the situation.
Q: I pressed on the power button but the system did not boot up.
A: Check the LED located at the center of the power button.
If the LED is not lit, no power is being applied to the system. Do any of the
following:
• Check if you plugged the power cable properly into an electrical outlet.
• Check if the main power switch on the right panel of your computer is
switched to "ON" (1). See page 24 for the location of the main power switch
on your computer.
• If you are using a power strip or AVR, make sure that it is plugged in and
turned on.
If the LED is lit, check the following:
• Is a nonbootable (nonsystem) diskette in the floppy drive? If yes, remove or
replace it with a system diskette and press Ctrl + Alt + Del to restart your
computer
• The operating system files may be damaged or missing. Insert the startup
disk you created during Windows setup into the floppy disk drive and press
Ctrl + Alt + Del to restart your computer. This will automatically diagnose
your system and make necessary fixes.
