HP Pavilion PC User’s Guide
Answering machine
I can’t record an
outgoing message.
Use the phone you connected to your computer,
rather than the microphone in the display, to
record the message. If you haven’t set up a phone
on the computer, directions are on your Welcome
Poster.
CD
The message “System Error: Unable to
read drive” appears when running a CD
program.
◆
Make sure that the CD is placed into the drive
with the label side up.
◆
Wait 5 to 10 seconds after closing the CD
drawer to give the computer time to recognize
the CD.
◆
Are you trying to play a DVD in a CD player?
A DVD will not play in a CD player. To play a
DVD, you must have a special DVD player.
Display
My display doesn’t work, even
though the computer appears to work.
◆
Make sure that the power cord is securely
plugged into the display.
◆
Make sure that the display is turned on—it has
its own power switch.
◆
Make sure that your power cord is plugged
into a grounded three-prong outlet. Check to
see whether the outlet works by plugging
another item (such as a lamp) into the outlet.
(If the light on the front of the display is lit, it is
getting power. Try the next item on this list.)
◆
Check the cable connection between the
display and the computer. The cable
connectors must be pushed in all the way.
◆
Adjust the brightness and contrast controls on
the display. (The information may be there,
but you just can’t see it.)
