Question:
When I started my notebook, it ran ScanDisk? What's happening?
Answer:
The notebook may have been disconnected from power, had its power
interrupted, or was improperly shut down. Windows 95 automatically runs
Scan Disk when it senses that the notebook was improperly shut down. This
is usually a good thing because ScanDisk fixes any errors on your notebook's
hard disk drive and minimizes data loss.
Question:
I started my new notebook, and I'm not getting any sound from my speakers.
What can I do?
Answer:
If you are using external speakers, check your speaker connections, making
sure the connectors are in the correct ports. Make sure the volume is turned
up for the speakers (using the volume wheel) and in Windows 95. Click
Speaker
icon in the lower right corner of the screen and drag the volume
slider up if necessary. Also make sure that the mute box is not checked.
Question:
How do I connect to my Internet provider?
Answer:
To get access to the Internet, you need an Internet Service Provider (ISP). It
may be a service like AOL, CompuServe, or the Microsoft Network, or a
local company. You already have the basic software needed to browse, but the
ISP actually connects you.
