drive is operating properly. If you cannot format a diskette,
see the next section.

Diskette Drive Problems

If you are having problems with the diskette drive, check the
following:
1. If the drive does not seem to be working, try performing a
similar operation with a diskette in another computer's
drive, if you have access to one.
2. Make sure the diskette drive is set to the correct type in the
System Configuration utility. See Chapter 1 for instructions.
3. If the drive is making loud or unusual noises, stop the
current operation immediately and contact your
Authorized EPSON Servicer or the EPSON Connection.

Hard Disk Problems

If you have problems with your hard disk drive, check the
following:
1. If you have set an inactivity time period in the
option on the Power Management screen and the drive
powered down, the hard disk may still be coming back up
to speed. Your drive needs about 15 seconds to resume
speed when you access it again.
2. Check the Hard Disk Activity icon. If you enter commands
that access the hard disk, the icon should appear in the
System Window. If the icon is blinking continually, there
may be a problem with the hard disk; contact your
Authorized EPSON Servicer or the EPSON Connection.
