assistance. This section contains the steps to take to ask for
help.
Before you contact Toshiba
Since some problems may be related to the operating system
or the program you are using, it is important to investigate
other sources of assistance first.
Try the following before you contact Toshiba:
❖ Review the troubleshooting information in your
operating system documentation.
❖ If the problem occurs while you are running a program,
consult the program’s documentation for troubleshooting
suggestions. Contact the software company’s technical
support group for their assistance.
❖ Consult the dealer from whom you purchased your
computer and/or program. Your dealer is your best source
for current information.
