5-2 Solving System Problems
You may occasionally encounter a problem with the system. In most
cases, the problem is one that you can solve yourself.
The system has a built-in program that automatically checks its
components when the system is powered on. If there is a problem, the
system displays an error message. If this happens, follow any instructions
on the screen.
If screen messages do not help or an error message does not appear, refer
to the information in this chapter to help determine and solve the problem.
