Troubleshooting and Maintenance

Troubleshooting Your Computer

Make sure the embedded Keypad Lock (Fn+F8) is on—or that you press and hold the Fn key to temporarily access the embedded keypad.

If you can’t type the euro symbol

Hold ALT GR when you press the marked key.

The euro symbol is not on the U.S. English keyboard. Make sure the embedded keypad is active (Fn+F8) and Num Lock is on, and then hold ALT while typing 0128 on the numeric keypad.

If you can’t update or reinstall One-Touch software

Log in as administrator to perform the update or installation.

LAN Problems

If the built-in network adapter doesn’t connect to the LAN

Check all cables and connections. Try connecting at a different network station, if available.

If the green light next to the LAN port does not light, the LAN cable may not be connected to the network or the network may be down. Try connecting a different computer to the cable.

Make sure the LAN cable is Category 3, 4, or 5 for 10Base-T operation, or Category 5 for 100Base-TX operation. Maximum cable length is 100 meters (330 feet).

Click Start, Help and Support (or Help), and use the Networking troubleshooter.

Open the hardware Device Manager: click Start, Control Panel, Performance and Maintenance, System. If the network interface is disabled, try to enable it. If it has a conflict, try disabling another device.

If you can’t browse the Network Neighborhood or My Network Places

Click Start, Search, Computers or People to look for a computer.

If you can’t log in to Netware servers

If a Netware server is using IPX/SPX protocol, you may need to force your frame type to match the server’s frame type. Check with your network administrator.
