If You Have Problems
After connecting your tape drive and turning on your computer, the computer should start (boot) as it normally does. If it does not, check the following items:
nIs the computer power cord plugged in?
nIs each device plugged in and turned on?
nAre all cables properly plugged into the back of your computer?
nIf you verify all of these and still have problems, try turning off your computer. Wait at least 20 seconds before turning it back on.
nIf you have a printer connected to the HP Colorado tape drive, turn off the computer’s power. Disconnect the tape drive and the printer. Reconnect only your tape drive to the parallel port, then turn the computer on and start Colorado Backup. If tape drive works, it is likely you have a conflict with the printer.
