Troubleshooting C-3
Question: Why can’t I use a floppy disk?
•
The floppy disk may not be formatted, or could be corrupted.
•
If you can’t write to a floppy disk, the disk may be write-protected. Eject the disk
and ensure that the write-protect tab covers the detection hole.
•
If you can’t write to a floppy disk, the disk may be full. Use another disk.
•
The system BIOS boot settings for the floppy disk drive type is incorrect. In the
Setup Utility, ensure that Drive A: is set to the proper type (1.44 MB) and that
Diskette Controller is enabled.
Question: Why do I get a non-system disk or disk error message?
•
You may have inserted a non-bootable disk in Drive A: (either a defective disk or
one without an installed operating system). Remove the disk.
•
Check the Setup Utility to ensure that the drive types are correctly identified.
•
If this message is issued when you attempt to boot from your hard disk drive,
insert a bootable disk and check the integrity of your hard disk drive.
Question: Why is the date and/or time incorrect?
•
Correct the date and time using the Windows Control Panel or the Setup Utility.
•
If the date and time are still incorrect when you reboot, contact your dealer to
change the CMOS backup battery on the system board.
Question: Why can’t I recharge the battery?
•
If the notebook has been left unused for a long time, the battery may have become
completely discharged. In this case, it may be necessary to connect AC for a few
hours before the battery begins to recharge normally.
