If these actions do not correct the problem, run the diagnostic programs to test the USB connector (see
"Lenovo Solution Center" on page 54 for instructions). If the USB device came with its own diagnostics, run
those diagnostics against the USB device. If you need technical assistance, see "Additional information
resources" on page 34.

Diagnostics

The diagnostic program is used to test hardware components of your computer. The diagnostic program can
also report operating-system-controlled settings that interfere with the correct operation of your computer.
You can use the preinstalled diagnostic program to diagnose computer problems, if your computer is
running the Windows operating system.
Notes:
1. Your computer is preinstalled with the Lenovo Solution Center program for diagnostic purposes. For
more information about the Lenovo Solution Center program, see "Lenovo Solution Center" on page 54.
2. If you are unable to isolate and repair the problem yourself after running the diagnostic program, save
and print the log files created by the diagnostic program. You will need the log files when you speak to a
Lenovo technical support representative.
