Troubleshooting and Maintenance Troubleshooting Your Computer If the computer won't boot from the floppy disk drive • Make sure the drive is installed or connected correctly-see "To connect the floppy disk drive to the parallel port" on page 78. • Make sure the floppy disk drive is selected as the boot device-see "To change the boot device" on page 30. If the computer takes a long time to resume after being suspended • The computer can routinely take a minute or more to resume if it has a network card installed. While the operating system is loading drivers and checking hardware and network connections, you will see a blinking cursor on your display. As soon as the hardware has been re-initialized, the Windows desktop will appear. If you get a VirusScan error message at startup • For Windows 2000, if you connect to a network using a logon other than your Windows logon, assign Windows administrator privileges to the network logon. Wireless Problems If you have problems with wireless communication • Make sure the wireless indicator light is on. • See "LAN problems" on page 109. If you have trouble connecting to another computer in the Network Neighborhood or My Network Places • Wait a few minutes, then press F5 to refresh the list of computers on the network. • Click Start, Find, Find Computer (Windows 98 or 2000) or Start, Search, Computers or People (Windows XP) to locate the computer. • For Windows 98, disable DNS in the TCP/IP properties: click Start, Settings, Control Panel, then double-click Network. If you cannot connect to a particular computer on the network • Make sure the computer is properly connected to the network. • Make sure your TCP/IP setup is correct for your network: in Control Panel, open Network (Windows 98), Network and Dial-up Connections (Windows 2000), or Network Connections (Windows XP).
