My system is running slowly
The system response time varies, depending on the number of applications that are open and running.
Close any application that you are not currently using.
Increasing the system memory may also help. The computer has two memory slots. For memory
upgrades, use only 3.3V PC-133 CL3 168pin SDRAM DIMM modules. For information on installing
memory, please see the online manual, Adding and removing a memory module.
My computer locks up
If you suspect an application is locking your system, you can try to stop it. To do this, press
<Ctrl>+<Alt>+<Delete> once. If you have not changed the default settings, the Task Manager
appears. Select the application that is locking your system, and then click End Task.
If the above method does not work or you do not know which application is locking your system, restart
the computer. On the Windows
®
taskbar, click the Start button then Turn Off Computer, select Restart
in the list and click OK.
If the above method does not work, press the power button and hold it for at least four seconds. This
turns off the power.
If your computer locks up while playing a CD-ROM or DVD-ROM, stop the CD, and shut down the
computer by pressing <Alt>+<F4>, and then click Turn Off.
