- Troubleshooting Your LIFEBOOK
Serial and USB Problems
You have installed a serial,
or USB device. Your LIFE-
BOOK notebook does not
recognize the device, or the
device does not seem to
work properly.
The device is not prop-
erly installed.
Remove and re-install the device. See “Device Ports” on page 80.
Your device may not
have the correct soft-
ware driver active.
See your software documentation and activate the correct driver.
Parallel port is set to
output only.
Check parallel port setting in the BIOS and set to bi-directional or
ECP.
A device may have been
installed while an appli-
cation was running, so
the notebook is not
aware of its installation.
Close the application and restart your notebook.
ExpressCard Problems
A card inserted in the
ExpressCard slot does not
work or is locking up the
system.
The card is not properly
installed.
Remove and re-install the card. See “ExpressCards™” on
page 73.
Your software may not
have the correct soft-
ware driver active.
See your software documentation and activate the correct driver.
The card may have
been installed while an
application was run-
ning, so the notebook is
not aware of it.
Close the application and restart your notebook.
You may have the wrong
I/O address selected for
your card device.
See your ExpressCard documentation to determine
the required I/O address. Change the settings in the Device
Manager.
