Troubleshooting
8 - 6 Upgrading and Adding New Hardware/Software

• Thoroughly check any recent changes you made to your system as these changes may affect one
or more system components, or software programs. If possible, go back and undo the change you
just made and see if the problem still occurs.
• Don’t over complicate things. The less you have to deal with then the easier the source of the
problem may be found; Example - if your computer has many devices plugged into its ports, and
a number of programs running, then it will be difficult to determine the cause of a problem. Try
disconnecting all of the devices and restarting the computer with all the peripheral devices
unplugged. A process of elimination (adding and removing devices and restarting where neces-
sary) will often find the source of a problem, although this may be time consuming.
