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. The 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 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.
Problem Procedure No display Press the function keys to adjust the display priority, and to make sure that it is not set for output to an external monitor. Markings appear on the computer's display panel. These marks might have come from contact with the keyboard and Touch Pad while the display panel has been closed. Try to remove the marks by gently wiping the display panel with a clean dry cloth or, if this fails, with a good quality LCD screen cleaner.
Problem Procedure You cannot access a Make sure that the drive’s disc tray is securely CD/DVD/Blu-ray closed. Press gently until it clicks into place. Disc™ in the drive Open the disc tray and make sure that the disc is properly seated. It should lie flat with the label facing up. A foreign object in the disc tray could block laser light from reading the disc. Make sure that there is no obstruction. Remove any foreign object. Check whether the disc is dirty.
Touch Pad Problem Procedure The Touch Pad does Check the Device Select settings. not work. Click Control Panel -> Hardware and Sound -> Mouse under Windows System group in All apps. On-screen pointer does not respond to pointing device operation In this instance, the system might be busy. Try moving the mouse again after waiting a short while.

USB mouse Problem Procedure On-screen pointer does not respond to mouse operation In this instance, the system might be busy. Try moving the mouse again after waiting a short while. Remove the mouse from the computer and then reconnect it to a free USB port in order to ensure that it is firmly attached. Double-clicking does In this instance, you should initially try changing not work the double-click speed setting within the Mouse Control utility. 1. 2. 3.
Problem Procedure USB device does not Remove the USB device from the computer and work then reconnect it to a free port in order to ensure that it is firmly attached. Ensure that any required USB device drivers are properly installed. To achieve this, you should refer to both the device documentation and the operating system documentation. Sleep and Charge function For more information and settings, refer to the USB Sleep and Charge section. Problem Procedure I cannot use the Sleep and Charge function.
Problem Procedure External devices connected to the compatible ports do not work when connected to a compatible port. Some external devices might not work when connected to a compatible port if the Sleep and Charge function is enabled. The "USB Wakeup function" does not work. When Sleep and Charge function is enabled, the "USB WakeUp" function does not work for ports that support the Sleep and Charge function. Reconnect the external device after turning the computer ON.
External monitor Also refer to Operating Basics, and to the documentation supplied with your monitor for further information. Problem Procedure Monitor does not turn on After confirming that the monitor's power switch is on, check the connections to make sure that the power cord/adaptor is firmly connected to the monitor and to a working power outlet. No display Try adjusting the contrast and brightness controls on the external monitor.
Problem Procedure Wake-up on LAN does not work Make sure that the AC adaptor is connected. The Wake-up on LAN function consumes power even when the system is off. Check to make sure that 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.

The wireless devices have not completed verification of connection and operation with all devices which are using the Wireless LAN or Bluetooth radio technology. Bluetooth and Wireless LAN devices operate within the same radio frequency range and might interfere with one another. If you use Bluetooth and Wireless LAN devices simultaneously, you might occasionally experience a less than optimal network performance or even lose your network connection.
Only some models are equipped with both Wireless LAN and Bluetooth functions. Do not use the Wireless LAN (Wi-Fi) or Bluetooth functionalities near a microwave oven or in areas subject to radio interference or magnetic fields. Interference from a microwave oven or other source can disrupt Wi-Fi or Bluetooth operation. Turn off all wireless functionalities when near a person who might have a cardiac pacemaker implant or other medical electric device.
Wireless communication is often subject to local radio regulations. Although Wireless LAN wireless networking products have been designed for operation in the license-free 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz band, local radio regulations might impose a number of limitations to the use of wireless communication equipment. Radio Frequency Band 5 GHz (5150-5850 MHz) (Revision a and n) Band 2.4 GHz (2400-2483.
Worldwide operation The Bluetooth radio transmitter and receiver operate in the 2.4 GHz band, which is license-free and compatible with radio systems in most countries in the world. Radio links You can easily establish links between two or more devices, with these links being maintained even if the devices are not within a line-of-sight of each other.
