tain period of time, there

ordered
Dealing with Problems (Advanced)
When there is no display to an external display,
• Check your cable connection to the external display.
• Confirm your display is powered on.
• Check the settings for your external display.
Has the computer been set to the power-saving mode?
    To resume operation of your computer from the condition the power of the display
is off (for energy conservation purposes), press any key unrelated to the direct
triggering of a selection, like   Shift   .
To save power, your computer may have automatically entered the standby or
hibernation mode. Press the power switch.
If an image is displayed for a prolonged period of time, an afterimage may appear.
This is not a malfunction.  Set the screen saver.
When an external display not compatible with the power saving mode is used with
the computer, the external display may no longer display properly when the computer
enters the condition the power of the display is off (for energy conservation pur-
poses).  In such cases, turn off the power to the external display.
Changing the number of colors of the display may affect the screen. Restart the
computer.

unclearYou need to use drivers conforming to the current operating system(version). Some
earlier drivers will no longer work. To confirm the version, select [System] in [start] -
[Settings] - [Control Panel].
For more information, ask the manufacturer of the driver in question.
Check the computer-printer connection.
Make sure the printer is on.
Make sure the printer is in the online state.
Make sure paper is in the printer tray and there is no paper jam.
Has the Setup Utility been used to set [Parallel Port] to [Enable] or [Auto]?
Depending on the printer, EPP or ECP may not work at times.
Check your mouse connection, then reboot the computer from the keyboard.
From the keyboard, you may select to press       or    Ctrl   +   Esc   , then select [Shut
Down].
Check the connection.
Confirm that the device driver for the serial port works. Refer to the reference
manual of the device.
Confirm that two mouse devices are not connected, one through the external key-
board/mouse port and the other through the serial port.
Confirm that [Serial Port A] or [Serial Port B] has not been set to [Disable].
Depending on the device, the operable I/O and IRQ may be limited. Try different
I/O and IRQ settings in the Setup Utility.
Some devices may not work since the serial port of the port replicator allows the
selection of only [3E8/IRQ5] or [2E8/IRQ10]. In such cases, we recommend using
the serial port of the computer.

A mouse connected to the serial port will not work.
In some circumstances, if a PS/2 external mouse with a serial interface conversion
function is connected to the port, it may not operate normally.  Try connecting it to the
serial port.

Confirm that the card conforms to the PC Card Standard.
Note that after a driver is installed, the computer must be rebooted.
Check that the proper port settings have been made.
Read the PC Card’s manual. Or, you may need to call the manufacturer of the PC Card.
Try removing / reinserting the PC Card by following the proper procedure. (
