If this has no effect, check the Boot Priority setting within the TOSHIBA HW Setup utility please refer to the Boot Priority section in Chapter 7, HW Setup for further information. Please refer to your operating system documentation in order to determine whether there is a problem with any of the operating system files or settings. The files on the hard disk drive may be fragmented - in this instance you should run the disk Defragmentation utility to check the condition of your files and the hard disk drive. Please refer to the operating system's documentation or online Help File for further information on running and using the Defragmentation utility. As a last resort you should reformat the hard disk drive and then reload the operating system and all other files and data. If you are still unable to resolve the problem, contact your reseller, dealer or service provider. User's Manual 10-9
