Solving Problems

If the computer stops responding or a solid blue screen appears —

CAUTION: You might lose data if you are unable to perform an operating system shutdown.

If you are unable to get a response by pressing a key on your keyboard or moving your mouse, press and hold the power button for at least 8 to 10 seconds until the computer turns off and then restart your computer.

If a program is designed for an earlier Microsoft Windows operating system — Run the Program Compatibility Wizard. The Program Compatibility Wizard configures a program so that it runs in an environment similar to an earlier version of Microsoft Windows operating system.

To run the Program Compatibility Wizard:

1.Click Start → Control Panel→ Programs→ Run programs made for previous versions of Windows.

2.In the welcome screen, click Next.

3.Follow the instructions on the screen.
