Version 1 Last Saved on 22/09/00 09:50 Safety Instructions for Toshiba Desktop and Minitower Computers Important Safeguards All safety instructions must be read carefully and must be fully understood, before attempting to use your Toshiba desktop or minitower Personal Computer (PC). This manual contains the safety instructions that must be observed in order to avoid potential hazards that could result in personal injuries or could damage your computer.
Computer Minitower Warning: Never remove the cover or panels of the Computer Minitower, except as specifically instructed by Toshiba. Never attempt to disassemble the Minitower, to avoid the risk of electric shock or possible damage to the computer. Contact an authorised Toshiba service provider for assistance if repair or adjustment is necessary.
Version 1 Last Saved on 22/09/00 09:50 Monitor Danger: To avoid the risk of electric shock and exposure to high voltages, never remove the cover of the Cathode Ray Tube (CRT) Monitor for any reason. Contact an authorised Toshiba service provider for assistance if repair or adjustment is necessary. Warning: To avoid the risk of injury from flying glass, never strike the face of the CRT with any object, and never drop the CRT monitor.
Work Environment Notice: This computer must always be used at a well designed work station. The keyboard and mouse-pad must be located so that your arms, shoulders and hands will always be in natural and comfortable positions when you are using the computer. This will minimise any physical discomfort to the back, neck, wrists and other parts of your body. (During normal computer use, your forearms should be parallel to the floor, your wrists should be arched comfortably upward (i.e.
Version 1 Last Saved on 22/09/00 09:50 Warnings: a. Always locate the CRT monitor directly in front of you, at a comfortable viewing distance, always greater than 40 cm (16") both for persons with normal eyesight as well as for those who wear corrective glasses or contact lenses. b. Always adjust the viewing angle to ensure that the top line of the CRT monitor screen is located at least 20 degrees below eye level.
Vision Care All new users of desktop PCs must have vision tests performed before undertaking computer use, and all users must have vision tests performed periodically thereafter, to ensure that they have adequately corrected their vision (if necessary) to satisfactorily handle such work. An association between bifocal use and vulnerability to neck disorders is also known to exist.
Version 1 Last Saved on 22/09/00 09:50 Prevention of Physical Discomfort When using your Toshiba desktop PC for an extended period of time, prudent precautions must be taken to prevent physical discomfort to the body or to the hands, wrists and arms. Physical discomfort can be avoided by taking frequent rest breaks and by periodically initiating changes in activity, environment or work tempo.
Avoidance of Exposure to Electromagnetic Field (EMF) Emissions Extremely Low Frequency (ELF) Emissions (50Hz (Europe) or 60Hz (US)) Notices: a. Since Toshiba desktop PCs are 50Hz or 60Hz alternating current (AC) devices, the power cord and power supply of this computer may emit low levels of EMF energy in the ELF range.
Version 1 Last Saved on 22/09/00 09:50 Radio Frequency (RF) Emissions Notice: All personal computers generate digital timing pulses at frequencies within the RF range, and consequently may emit minute levels of stray EMF energy in the RF range. As a result, all desktop PCs have been certified by the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC), by Industry Canada Requirements (ICES: Interference-Causing Equipment Standards) and by European Regulations and Standards (VDE, et al.
Avoidance of Exposure to Emissions of Ionising Energy in the X-Ray Frequency Range Toshiba CRT monitors use a cathode ray tube monitor screen and are therefore an emissive device. They consequently are a generator of some ionising energy in the x-ray frequency range, as are all CRT monitors. Most of that energy is absorbed by the glass envelope of the CRT and is consequently not emitted.

Version 1 Last Saved on 22/09/00 09:50 Chapter 4 If Something Goes Wrong This chapter provides you with hints and tips if your computer does not perform as it should. It also provides the resources you need if the problem is more serious. Some problems you may encounter when using the computer are relatively easy to identify and solve. Others may require help from your network administrator, the manufacturer of a software program, or Toshiba. This chapter aims to help you solve many problems yourself.
Problems that are easy to fix The more you work with the computer, the more likely you are to encounter the following problems. You can resolve them relatively easily. Your program stops responding. If you are working with a program that suddenly freezes all operations, chances are the program has stopped responding. This problem can occur from time to time. To exit the failed program without shutting down Windows or closing other programs: 1. Press Ctrl, Alt, and Del simultaneously (once).
Version 1 Last Saved on 22/09/00 09:50 Problems when you turn on the computer The computer does not start. Make sure you attached the power cable properly and that the outlet you use is live. Press and hold down the power button for a few seconds. The computer starts, but when you press a key on the keyboard or touch the mouse, nothing happens. You may have a software or resource conflict. To clear the condition, press Ctrl, Alt, and Del simultaneously twice, or press the reset button.
Windows does not work Once you are familiar with Windows, you can easily detect if it is not working correctly. For example: Y Windows fails to start after displaying its starting message. Y Windows takes a long time to start. Y Windows departs from its normal routine. Y The screen does not look right. Unless a hardware device has failed, problems usually occur when you change the system configuration, add a device, or install a new program.

Y You want to avoid loading Himem.sys (extended memory manager), or Ifshlp.sys (file system manager). Windows can help you If Windows has started properly, but you still have a problem using the computer, Windows Help can assist you in troubleshooting the problem. 1. Click the Start button and click Help. 2.
Version 1 Last Saved on 22/09/00 09:50 Resolving hardware conflicts on your own Computer components need resources to accomplish a task. A device, such as a CD-ROM drive or a modem, needs a channel to the computer’s processor. It also needs a direct channel to the computer’s memory to store information as it works. These channels of communication are commonly referred to as system resources.
Fixing a problem with Device Manager Device Manager provides a way to check and change the configuration of a device. Changing the default settings using Device Manager can cause other conflicts that make one or more devices unusable. Device Manager is a configuration tool for advanced users who understand configuration parameters and the ramifications of changing them. Disabling a device in Windows 1. Right-click the My Computer icon, then click Properties. The Properties dialog box appears. 2.
Version 1 Last Saved on 22/09/00 09:50 4. Double-click the device to display its properties. The Properties dialog box has tabs to view different kinds of information.
