Troubleshooting and Maintenance Getting Assistance for Your Notebook Floppy disk drive problems If a floppy drive connected to the USB port doesn't work • Make sure the drive is securely connected to the notebook. • Restart the notebook: click Start, Turn Off Computer, Restart. Hard disk drive problems If the notebook's hard drive doesn't spin • Make sure the notebook has power. If necessary, connect the AC adapter, and make sure it is fully plugged into a power source and into the back of the notebook. • Remove and reinsert the hard drive-see "To replace the hard disk drive" on page 43. If the hard disk makes a buzzing or whining noise • Back up the drive immediately. • See whether the noise is coming from elsewhere, such as the fan or a PC Card drive. Keyboard and pointing device problems If the pointer is difficult to control • Adjust the pointer controls: click Start, Control Panel, Printers and Other Hardware, Mouse. If the touch pad or scroll pad doesn't work • Don't use the touch pad or scroll pad while the notebook is rebooting or resuming.
