Software troubleshooting

Some software repairs are as simple as restarting your computer, and others require performing a System Recovery from files on your hard disk drive.

To repair software problems, try these methods:

●Turn the computer off completely, and then turn it on again. Sometimes this is the easiest way to fix a problem.

●Update the drivers (see Updating drivers on page 23).

●Use Microsoft System Restore (see Microsoft System Restore on page 24) — Restore your computer to a configuration that was in use before the software was installed.

●Reinstall the software program or hardware driver. (See Software program and hardware driver reinstallation on page 25) — Restores the software (if it came with the product) or hardware driver to factory defaults.

●System Recovery (see System Recovery on page 28) — Erase and reformat the hard disk drive, and then reinstall the operating system, programs, and drivers.

CAUTION: This erases all data files you have created.

Updating drivers

A driver is a software program that enables your computer to communicate with an attached device, such as a printer, hard disk drive, mouse, or keyboard.
