Chapter 6 Troubleshooting TOSHIBA has designed this computer for durability, however, should problems occur you are able to use the procedures detailed in this chapter to help determine the cause. You should become familiar with this chapter as knowing what might go wrong can help prevent problems from occurring in the first place. Problem-solving process If you observe the following guidelines, resolving problems will be much easier.
Check all cables to ensure that they are correctly and firmly attached to the computer - loose cables can cause signal errors. Inspect all connecting cables for loose wires and all connectors for loose pins. Check that your disc media is correctly loaded Always try to make detailed notes of your observations and keep them in a permanent error log - this helps you to describe your problems to TOSHIBA Support. In addition, if a problem recurs, the log you have made helps to identify the problem faster.
Hardware If you cannot find a software problem, you should then check the setup and configuration of your hardware. First run through the items in the preliminary checklist as described previously then, if you still cannot correct the problem, try to identify the source. Tthe next section provides checklists for individual components and peripherals.
Verify that the computer is on by looking at the Power indicator. If the indicator is glowing, the computer is on. Also, try turning the computer off and then on. If you are using an AC adaptor, verify that the computer is receiving power from the external power source by looking at the DC IN/Battery indicator. If the indicator is glowing, the computer is connected to a live external power source.
Overheating power down If the processor's temperature reaches an unacceptably high level with either setting, the computer automatically shuts down to prevent any damage. In this instance all unsaved data in memory is lost. Problem Procedure Computer shuts down automatically. Leave the computer off until the it reaches room temperature. If the computer has reached room temperature and it still does not start, or if it starts but shuts down quickly, contact TOSHIBA Support.
Problem Procedure Battery does not power the computer as long as expected If you frequently recharge a partially charged battery, the battery might not charge to its full potential. In these instances you should fully discharge the battery and then attempt to charge it again. Check the Power saver option under Choose or customize a power plan in the Power Options. Real-Time Clock Problem Procedure The BIOS setting and system date/ time are lost.

Sound system In addition to the information in this section, please also refer to the documentation supplied with your audio device. Problem Procedure No sound is heard Press the function keys to increase or decrease volume. Check the software volume settings. Check to see if Mute is turned to Off Check to make sure that the headphone connection is secure. Check within the Windows Device Manager application to ensure that the sound device is enabled and that the device is properly working.
Problem Procedure No display Try adjusting the contrast and brightness controls on the external monitor. Press the function key in order to change the display priority and ensure that it is not set for the internal display only. Check to see if the external monitor is connected. When the external monitor is set as the primary display device in extended desktop mode, it does not display when the computer wakes up from Sleep Mode if the external monitor has been disconnected while in Sleep Mode.
Problem Procedure Wake-up on LAN does not work Make sure the AC adaptor is connected. The Wake-up on LAN function consumes power even when the system is off. Check to make sure fast startup is disabled: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. Click Control Panel -> System and Security -> Power Options under Windows System group in All apps. Click Choose what the power button does or Choose what closing the lid does. Click Change settings that are currently unavailable. Clear the Turn on fast startup check box.
TOSHIBA support If you require any additional help using your computer or if you are having problems operating the computer, you might need to contact TOSHIBA for additional technical assistance. Before you call Some problems you experience might be related to software or the operating system so it is important that you investigate other sources of assistance first.

Canada China CSA approved CCC approved Information for Wireless Devices Wireless Technology Interoperability The Wireless LAN is compatible with other LAN systems Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) /Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) radio technology, and is compliant to: The IEEE 802.11 Standard on Wireless LANs (Revision a/b/g/n, b/g/n or Revision a/b/g/n/ac), as defined and approved by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers.
Wireless Devices and your health Wireless products, like other radio devices, emit radio frequency electromagnetic energy. The level of energy emitted by Wireless products however is far much less than the electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless devices like for example mobile phones. Because Wireless products operate within the guidelines found in radio frequency safety standards and recommendations, TOSHIBA believes Wireless products are safe for use by consumers.
It might not be possible to make a network connection to a specified network name using the ad hoc network function. If this occurs, the new network (*)has to be configured for all computers connected to the same network in order to re-enable network connections. * Make sure to use new network name. Security TOSHIBA strongly recommends that you enable encryption functionality, otherwise your computer is open to illegal access by an outsider using a wireless connection.
Range is also impacted due to "obstacles" in the signal path of the radio that may either absorb or reflect the radio signal. Radio Frequency Interference Requirements This device is restricted to indoor use due to its operation in the 5.15 to 5.25GHz frequency range. High-power radars are allocated as primary users (i.e. priority users) of the bands 5.25 to 5.35GHz and 5.65 to 5.85GHz and that these radars could cause interference and/or damage to LE-LAN devices.
Europe Restrictions for Use of 2400.0-2483.5MHz Frequencies in Europe France: Outdoor use limited to 10mW e.i.r.p. within the band 2454-2483.5MHz Military Radiolocation use.Refarming of the 2.4GHz band has been ongoing in recent years to allow current relaxed regulation Full implementation planned 2012. Italy: - For private use, a general authorization is required if WAS/ RLAN’s are used outside own premises. For public use, a general authorization is required.
Russian Federation: Limited e.i.r.p 100mW. Permitted to use only for indoor applications, closed industrial and warehouse areas, and on board aircraft. 1. 2. Permitted to use for local networks of aircraft crew service communications on board aircraft in area of the airport and at all stages of flight. Permitted to use for public wireless access local networks on board aircraft during a flight at the altitude not less than 3000m.
check the current channel of operation. If operation is occurring outside of the allowable frequencies for outdoor use, as listed above, the user must contact the applicable national spectrum regulator to request a license for outdoor operation. Canada - Industry Canada (IC) This device complies with RSS-210 of the Industry Canada Rules.
The installer of this radio equipment must ensure that the antenna is located or pointed such that it does not emit RF field in excess of Health Canada limits for the general population; consult Safety Code 6, obtainable from Health Canada’s website www.hc-sc.gc.
2. 3. If this equipment causes RF interference to other radio stations, promptly change the frequency being used, change the location of use, or turn off the source of emissions. Contact an authorized TOSHIBA service provider if you have problems with interference caused by this product to Other Radio Stations. 2.

Memory (Main System) Part of the main system memory may be used by the graphics system for graphics performance and therefore reduce the amount of main system memory available for other computing activities.
Hard Disk Drive (HDD) Capacity 1 Gigabyte (GB) means 109 = 1,000,000,000 bytes using powers of 10. The computer operating system, however, reports storage capacity using powers of 2 for the definition of 1 GB = 230 = 1,073,741,824 bytes, and therefore shows less storage capacity. Available storage capacity will also be less if the product includes one or more pre-installed operating systems, such as Microsoft Operating System and/or pre-installed software applications, or media content.
